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. The opposite of the primary muscle mover






2. Produces force through a range of motion at a constant muscle tension and velocity






3. Ex of this joint: wrists






4. Patterns mimic that encountered during the activity or sport






5. One side






6. Involves holding a position- stretch to your farthest position and hold it.






7. Back

16. More than 80% 1RM; 3-5 reps; 3-6 sets; 3-4 mins recovery






17. Without oxygen






18. 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.






19. Further away from the body's surface






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. The muscle's ability to repeatedly produce a movement or perform exertions many times- developed with lighter weights and more reps aka 12-15






22. Opposite gluteus maximus






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






24. ACSM maximum heart rate






25. Turning foot inward






26. Superior movement at the scapula

28. How ping measures body mass






29. Underweight BMI






30. Overweight body fat % for men ages 20-29






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






32. Face down






33. Opposite gastrocnemius






34. How often resistance training should be completed






35. Performing dynamic - sustained activities that use large muscle groups such as running - cycling - walking - group exercise classes...






36. Opposite triceps






37. Opposite gastrocnemius






38. 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.






39. Away from the body's midline






40. Less than 60% 1RM; 20-25 reps; 3-6 sets; 1-2 mins recovery






41. Underweight body fat % for women ages 20-29






42. Face up






43. The easy of movement through a full range of motion.






44. The easy of movement through a full range of motion.






45. Bouncy - uncontrolled stretches; not recommended for individuals who are not involved in a sport






46. Refers to listening and responding to internal cues






47. In resistance training - these muscles are worked first.






48. Increases muscle strength






49. Use the joint full range of motion while maintaining a soft bend in both elbows and knees to protect against hyperextension; the key to effectively working the muscle group desired






50. Ex of this joint: knuckles
