Kinesiology Strength 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. Developed in activities like walking - jogging - swimming - and standing






2. Mechanisms through which a warm-up helps to improve performance






3. The squat is considered a closed kinetic chain






4. If training is enough to cause an adaptation






5. Increase in the cross-sectional area of existing muscle fibers; it does not refer to the laying down of new muscle fibers

12. When training for strength - How many repetitions should be performed for each exercise set






13. Muscle makes up the walls of blood vessels and organs






14. Training needs to be constantly evaluated so that it remains stimulating. Failure to do so can cause you to regress rather than progress






15. Periodization limitation






16. Quality of the work done






17. The energy system that will primarily fuel your exercise will depend on






18. When training for hypertrophy - you should only get how much rest between each set?






19. When training for endurance you should do How many sets of each exercise?






20. States that everyone is different and will react to an exercise stimulus differently.






21. Are able to generate more force than muscles with less angle






22. Helps prevent injury because - as temperature increases - so does the






23. The better well-rounded an athlete is in terms of physical skills and in terms of fitness - the faster he or she will master new skills and the faster he or she will recover from the training process






24. Recommended hours of rest between plyometric sessions






25. Thought to be built up and stored when a muscle is stretched quickly






26. Dormant cells that - when stimulated - 'turn on' - re-enter the cell cycle - and then differentiate to form myofibrils






27. When training for endurance you should do How many sets of each exercise?






28. Muscle is under voluntary control and is responsible for movement of the body






29. Training must be increased regularly for performance to improve.






30. According to Brooks - Fahey - and White - the factors that influence a muscle's ability to undergo growth are






31. Machines (unlike free weights)






32. The warm up prepares the body for action. It is important for






33. Forms the backbone of plyometric training - sprint training - and the Olympic-style lifts






34. Machines (unlike free weights)






35. Recommended plyometric sessions per week






36. One disadvantage of free weights






37. Principle of specificity for athletes requires that you keep what factors in mind






38. A maximum amount of force being exerted throughout the entire range of motion






39. When a muscle contracts it does not change length






40. Training needs to be constantly evaluated so that it remains stimulating. Failure to do so can cause you to regress rather than progress

43. Mechanisms through which a warm-up helps to improve performance






44. The factors that contribute to increasing one's muscular strength






45. Quality of the work done






46. Ability to apply a maximum force in a minimal time






47. Start out using very general approaches to fitness






48. Failing to perform exercises correctly could lead to the load being placed on muscles and structures they are not meant to be - which could lead to






49. Attempt to make the training process more objectively measurable - thus more accurately planned and evaluated along the way to a more reliable peak






50. A maximum amount of force being exerted throughout the entire range of motion
