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. Ones that are used during the sport will be exercised






2. 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






3. ACSM maximum heart rate






4. Without oxygen






5. How often AFAA recommends that someone works out






6. Overweight BMI






7. Opposite gluteus maximus






8. Opposite trapezius and rhomboids






9. Training for a specific task- training muscles in the same for that they will be used for






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






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






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






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






14. Increases muscle strength






15. Bouncy - uncontrolled stretches; not recommended for individuals who are not involved in a sport






16. How often ACSM recommends that someone works out






17. Anaerobic with a duration of 1-20 sec






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






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






20. Turning foot inward






21. Carries blood away from the heart






22. Further away from the body's surface






23. Opposite erector spinae group






24. One side






25. Decreasing joint angle






26. Both side






27. The opposite of the primary muscle mover






28. Normal BMI






29. Underweight body fat % for men ages 20-29






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






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






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






33. Face down






34. The opposite of the primary muscle mover






35. Ex of this joint: wrists






36. Fat loss






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






38. Ex of this joint: thumb






39. Towards the body's midline






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






41. How much cardio fitness daily by ACSM






42. Opposite trapezius and rhomboids






43. Face up






44. Underweight BMI






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






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






47. Superior movement at the scapula






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






49. Face down






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