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.

19. Refers to being thankful to the pleasures that your body provides






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






21. 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.






22. 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






23. Decreasing joint angle






24. How often AFAA recommends that someone works out






25. Underweight BMI

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






43. Average body fat % for men ages 20-29






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






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