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






2. Turning the foot outward






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






4. Upper






5. How often stretches should be done.






6. The volume of air that can forcibly be ejected from the lungs in a single expiration






7. Ex of this joint: wrists






8. Relative ratio between fat and fat-free mass.






9. Face down






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






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






12. Is identical or greater than encountered during the activity






13. Movement away from midline






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






15. Opposite trapezius and rhomboids






16. Decreasing joint angle






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






18. How long stretches should be done for






19. Both side






20. Upper






21. How often stretches should be done.






22. Close to the body's surface






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






24. Refers to a person's ability o efficiently perform dynamic - moderate-to-high intensity exercises for prolonged periods.






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






26. Carries blood away from the heart






27. All exercises should be performed in a _____ fashion in which the _______ is controlled at a moderate pace






28. How ping measures body mass






29. Underweight BMI






30. Ex of this joint: shoulder and hips






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






32. Decreasing joint angle ie foot towards shin






33. One side






34. Superior movement at the scapula






35. 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.






36. Ex of this joint: fore arm






37. 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






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






39. Produces force - yet no change in the muscle length occurs ie pushing against immovable objects






40. Front






41. With oxygen






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






43. One side






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






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






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






47. Ex of this joint: elbow






48. Consists of controlled leg and arm swings that take you gently to the limits of your range of motion






49. Relative ratio between fat and fat-free mass.






50. Face down
