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. Strength ratios between opposing muscle groups.






2. Due to the mechanical loading and stress that it places on muscles and bones. However - the exercises must be intense enough to cause the bones to adapt






3. Which squat variation(s) is/are designed to increase your explosiveness in the squat






4. When performing a squat - depth of the squat will determine






5. Exercises that train the ability to run fast over short distances






6. Occur when the muscle shortens






7. One disadvantage of free weights






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






9. Includes the consideration of force as the cause of motion






10. The shrinking of muscles from disuse






11. Plyometrics training takes advantage of two physiological features in the human body






12. One disadvantage of free weights






13. When training for hypertrophy - How many repetitions should be done of each set of an exercise






14. If the training magnitude is too low then detraining will occur






15. Quantity of work one performs






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






17. Machines (unlike free weights)






18. Spotting is also used to help the lifter perform






19. When training for endurance - How many repetitions should be done for each set of an exercise






20. Potential to alter gene expression






21. 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






22. When training for hypertrophy - How many repetitions should be done of each set of an exercise






23. Carefully and methodically increasing the athlete's fitness over time seeks to insure that athletes do not become






24. Used when exercise remains at a steady - low intensity






25. If training load enough to maintain your fitness level but not enough to improve it






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






27. Exercise enhances your ability to generate and tolerate large levels of

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






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






33. Exercises that allow a muscle to reach max strength in as short a time as possible






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






35. Generally - What is the correct order in which exercises should be performed






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






37. Can actually decrease performance on strength and power activities






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






39. As one gets closer to the competitive season intensity will






40. 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






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

44. Exercise enhances your ability to generate and tolerate large levels of






45. It is critical for the prevention of injuries in plyometric sessions

47. Two parts to the warm up






48. A disadvantage of training with machine weights
