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. Anaerobic with a duration of 1-20 sec






2. Back






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






4. Back






5. 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






6. 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






7. 360˚ rotation






8. Underweight body fat % for women ages 20-29






9. Away from the body's midline






10. Patterns mimic that encountered during the activity or sport






11. ACSM maximum heart rate






12. Decreasing joint angle ie foot towards shin






13. Involves holding a position- stretch to your farthest position and hold it.






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






15. Overweight BMI






16. You are who you are






17. How ping measures body mass






18. 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

20. Carries blood away from the heart






21. Turning the foot outward






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






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






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






25. 60-80% 1RM; 8-12 reps; 3-6 sets; 2-3 mins recovery

30. Lower






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






32. One side






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






34. How often stretches should be done.






35. Inferior movement at the scapula






36. 2-3 days/week to mild discomfort and hold for 30 secs






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






38. Is identical or greater than encountered during the activity

47. Movement matches this during the activity or sport






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






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






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