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. Turning the foot outward






2. Movement matches this during the activity or sport

6. Refers to listening and responding to internal cues






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






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






9. 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






10. Anaerobic from glycogen stored with a duration of 30-120 sec






11. Runs down front and back. activity- jumping jacks






12. Ex of this joint: wrists






13. How much cardio fitness daily by ACSM

17. How often AFAA recommends that someone works out






18. How ping measures body mass






19. Ex of this joint: elbow






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






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






22. How much exercise is efficient to gain health benefits and prevent disease






23. Where carbon dioxide rich blood goes once it is depleted of oxygen and has gone through the body
