Fitness Instructor Training

Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. Face up






2. Primary muscle mover






3. The muscle's ability to exert maximal force- developed by 6-10 reps






4. Decreasing joint angle ie foot towards shin






5. Opposite latissimus dorsi






6. Occurs when force is applied as the muscle shortens decreasing joint angle and movement is against gravity ie lifting a weight






7. Increasing joint angle






8. Carries blood to the heart






9. Face down






10. Superior movement at the scapula






11. Turning the foot outward






12. Overweight body fat % for women ages 20-29






13. One side






14. Close to the body's surface






15. 2-3 days/week to mild discomfort and hold for 30 secs






16. Is identical or greater than encountered during the activity






17. Is identical or greater than encountered during the activity






18. Fat loss






19. Movement matches this during the activity or sport






20. Works by exchanging carbon dioxide and oxygen in the lungs and delivering blood containing oxygen to the working muscles






21. How much AFAA recommends of your maximum heart rate






22. Training for a specific task- training muscles in the same for that they will be used for






23. How often resistance training should be completed






24. One side






25. Runs down - left and right. activity- running






26. Turning the foot outward






27. Inferior movement at the scapula






28. The position of an individual's spine where every joint is held in an optimal position to allow an equal distribution of force through the entire structure






29. Opposite latissimus dorsi






30. The movement involved in resistance training mimic those motions in everyday real life. Each exercise is a _______ movement that the body would perform in a daily task.






31. Increases muscle strength






32. Opposite gluteus medius






33. Lower






34. The pitn at which the intensity of exercise becomes so intense that the body switches from aerobic to anaerobic energy systems






35. Occurs when force is produced as a muscle lengthens - increasing joint angles while movement is toward gravity ie lowing a weight with control






36. Ex of this joint: knuckles






37. With oxygen






38. The maximal volume of oxygen consumption per unit of time. measured in terms of ml/kg^-1*min^-1






39. Anaerobic with a duration of 1-20 sec






40. Both the agonist and antagonist must be worked equally to avoid muscle imbalances. Muscle imbalances may lead to an increased risk of injury






41. How often resistance training should be completed






42. Opposite trapezius and rhomboids






43. Where oxygen rich blood comes from upon leaving the heart






44. Average body fat % for women ages 20-29
