-Recall the percent of 1-RM and repetition range for each load category.
-Recall general load recommendations.
-Explain why 2 of the potential loads categories are likely inappropriate for training.
-Discuss the effect load has on post-exercise blood chemistry (hormones, growth factors, inflammatory markers, etc.).
-Apply research findings to develop a summary statement about the effect load has on EMG activity.
-Apply research findings to develop a summary statement about the effect load has on rate of perceived exertion.
-Describe the influence of load on body composition and bone density.
-Apply research findings to recommend optimal training load for hypertrophy.
-Compare and contrast optimal load recommendations for increasing strength for different demographics (novice, experienced, adolescent, adult, older individual).
-Explain why the optimal load for strength training and the optimal load for power training are different if the athlete’s primary goal is increasing velocity of movement.
-Recall the optimal load for improving endurance based on training goals.
