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. How often AFAA recommends that someone works out






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






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






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






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






6. How much cardio fitness daily by ACSM






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






8. Increasing joint angle






9. Ex of this joint: knuckles






10. Obese BMI






11. Ex of this joint: wrists






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






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






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






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






16. How often ACSM recommends that someone works out






17. Produces force while the joint moves through a full range of motion ie bicep curls






18. Opposite gastrocnemius






19. The opposite of the primary muscle mover






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






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






22. Divided at torso; top and bottom. activity- twisting






23. Away from the body's midline






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






25. Movement matches this during the activity or sport






26. You are who you are






27. Aerobic that has a duration of over 5 mins






28. Primary muscle mover






29. 360˚ rotation






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






31. 2-3 days/week to mild discomfort and hold for 30 secs






32. Fat loss






33. Ones that are used during the sport will be exercised






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






35. Decreasing joint angle ie foot towards shin






36. Face down






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. Overweight BMI






40. Decreasing joint angle ie foot towards shin






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






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






43. Turning foot inward






44. How long stretches should be done for






45. Face down






46. Turning foot inward






47. Ex of this joint: fore arm






48. Opposite erector spinae group






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






50. Opposite gastrocnemius
