Answer to Question 1

The overload principle states that a muscle will increase in strength and/or endurance only when it works against a
workload that is greater than normal. Progressive resistance exercise (PRE) is the application of the overload
principle to strength and endurance exercise programs.

Answer to Question 2

Genetics plays a primary role in determining muscle ber type. Fiber type distribution can be altered by training.
Most studies have shown exercise training to increase the relative proportion of intermediate bers.
