Here are the answers to the brain teaser questions:
1. The 6 types of training are: Interval, Continuous, Fartlek, Circuit, Weight, and Cross
2. Exercises for a circuit to improve muscular endurance could include: pushups, situps, squats
3. Continuous training improves cardiovascular fitness because it involves moderate exercise for at least 15-20 minutes with no rest in order to improve aerobic fitness.
4. Interval training involves periods of hard work followed by periods of rest in order to improve mainly speed but also cardiovascular fitness through high intensity intervals.
5. Fartlek training combines high and low intensity work with many changes of speed and terrain. It is good for games
Functional training focuses on integrated, multi-planar movements that improve movement ability, core strength, and neuromuscular efficiency. It aims to improve one's ability to complete activities of daily living with greater effectiveness. Traditional training often isolates muscles and joints, while functional training emphasizes full-body movements and recruiting the body's stabilizers. An effective functional program progressively challenges the neuromuscular system from static to dynamic movements in multiple planes while incorporating balance and stabilization training. The goals are to train natural movement patterns, emphasize quality over quantity of movement, and help clients meet the demands of daily life.

Fatigue can be caused by several factors including depletion of energy stores like phosphocreatine and glycogen, accumulation of metabolic byproducts like lactate and hydrogen ions, and neurological or central nervous system issues. Exercise leads to rapid depletion of phosphocreatine and glycogen reserves, especially during high intensity or long duration activity. Accumulation of lactate and drop in muscle pH below 6.9 due to hydrogen ions inhibits glycolysis and muscle contraction, ultimately leading to exhaustion. Prolonged intense training without adequate rest can also cause overtraining and chronic fatigue syndrome, impairing the immune system, hormone and nervous system function.
