Instructions for Side by Side Printing
  1. Print the notecards
  2. Fold each page in half along the solid vertical line
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal dotted line
  4. Optional: Glue, tape or staple the ends of each notecard together
  1. Verify Front of pages is selected for Viewing and print the front of the notecards
  2. Select Back of pages for Viewing and print the back of the notecards
    NOTE: Since the back of the pages are printed in reverse order (last page is printed first), keep the pages in the same order as they were after Step 1. Also, be sure to feed the pages in the same direction as you did in Step 1.
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal and vertical dotted line
To print: Ctrl+PPrint as a list

20 notecards = 5 pages (4 cards per page)

Viewing:

Exercise

front 1

Adaptation

back 1

the evolutionary process whereby an organism becomes better able to live in its habitat or habitats.

front 2

Aerobic exercise

back 2

any physical activity that uses your body's large muscle groups in a rhythmic and repetitive manner, increasing your heart rate and how much oxygen your body uses.

front 3

Anaerobic exercise

back 3

intense, short-burst activity that uses stored energy in muscles, rather than oxygen, to fuel movement.

front 4

Cardiovascular endurance

back 4

the ability of your heart, lungs, and circulatory system to efficiently deliver oxygen to your muscles during physical activity.

front 5

Concentric exercise

back 5

involve muscle shortening while a muscle contracts against a resistance.

front 6

Cool down

back 6

the period of reduced intensity activity after exercise, allowing your body to gradually return to a resting state.

front 7

Diminishing return

back 7

a phenomenon where, after a certain point, adding more of a specific input leads to a smaller and smaller increase in output.

front 8

Eccentric exercise

back 8

involve a muscle lengthening while it's contracted, typically during the downward or lowering phase of a movement.

front 9

Exercise plateau

back 9

occurs when your body adapts to your current exercise routine and you no longer see progress, even with consistent effort.

front 10

F.I.T.T. principle

back 10

a set of guidelines used to design effective fitness programs.

front 11

Flexibility

back 11

the quality of bending easily without breaking.

front 12

Heart rate

back 12

between 60 and 100 beats per minute (bpm).

front 13

Muscular contraction

back 13

a fundamental physiological process where muscle fibers generate tension and can shorten, causing movement.

front 14

Muscular endurance

back 14

the ability of a muscle or group of muscles to repeatedly exert force against a resistance, like body weight or weights, over a period of time.

front 15

Muscular strength

back 15

the ability of a muscle to exert a maximal or near maximal force, often measured by how much weight you can lift or push.

front 16

Overload principle

back 16

working the body harder than it's accustomed to in order to make gains in strength, endurance, and muscle size.

front 17

Plyometrics

back 17

exercises that involve rapid and explosive movements to increase muscle power, speed, and agility.

front 18

Range of motion

back 18

the extent of movement possible at a joint.

front 19

Repetitions

back 19

the action of repeating something that has already been said or written.

front 20

Warm-up

back 20

a preparatory activity that prepares the body for physical exertion by increasing heart rate, blood flow, and muscle temperature, reducing the risk of injury.
