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.

25. 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
absolute muscular strength
intensity
multi-lateral development
bone mineral density
26. Attempt to make the training process more objectively measurable - thus more accurately planned and evaluated along the way to a more reliable peak
periodization
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.
