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.

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






13. 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






14. Such as squats - leg presses - lunges and presses have to be used to have an effect on bone mineral density






15. Bone adapts to mechanical stress or loading by increasing mineralization in a particular region of the bone to increase the strength of the bone to withstand the stress.
