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. Mechanisms through which a warm-up helps to improve performance
to prevent injuries by providing a transition stage between high-intensity exercise and complete rest
redistribution of blood flow - muscle contractions - and metabolism of fuels.

2. Goal of plyometrics

perform exercises as quickly as possible

5. 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

20. If you perform the same workouts day after day this will eventually lead to losing fitness
Free weights
rinciple of accommodation

21. Spotting is also used to help the lifter perform
provide better isolation of specific joint angles and movements than free weights -easy to learn - and safer than free weight exercises - generally not requiring spotters.
retraining
extra repetitions
balance the barbell or dumbbells (thus involving more muscles in the exercise) and also allow for movements in many planes
22. If training load enough to maintain your fitness level but not enough to improve it
one progresses slowly
allow for little excersice variety and allow movement in only a single plane of motion
