Specicity of training refers to the concept that training benets are seen only in those muscles that are used in

program.

Answer to Question 2

Fiber recruitment is the process of involving more muscle bers to increase muscular force. The lighter the weight
lifted, the fewer the number of bers needed to generate sufcient force.
