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.
1. Training needs to be constantly evaluated so that it remains stimulating. Failure to do so can cause you to regress rather than progress






2. Spotting is especially important with the following types of exercises






3. Designed to take the fitness that was developed in the first phase of training and apply it directly to the sport






4. Designed to build a movement and fitness base






5. A maximum amount of force being exerted throughout the entire range of motion






6. Carefully and methodically increasing the athlete's fitness over time seeks to insure that athletes do not become






7. Muscle is under voluntary control and is responsible for movement of the body






8. Exercise selection For high-level athletes must be more






9. The energy system that will primarily fuel your exercise will depend on

11. When one cannot perform more repetitions - or when he or she cannot increase the weight - then the exercises should be






12. When training for endurance - How many repetitions should be done for each set of an exercise






13. One disadvantage of free weights






14. When you lift weights - pressure builds up in your chest. When you hold your breath you shut off the only escape valve that pressure has






15. Dormant cells that - when stimulated - 'turn on' - re-enter the cell cycle - and then differentiate to form myofibrils






16. Goal of plyometrics






17. According to Brooks - Fahey - and White - the factors that influence a muscle's ability to undergo growth are






18. Strength ratios between opposing muscle groups.






19. Trength one can develop in a movement regardless of body weight






20. Principle of specificity for athletes requires that you keep what factors in mind






21. Free weights require the user to






22. Potential to alter gene expression






23. Fuel around six to ten seconds of exercise






24. Trength one can develop in a movement regardless of body weight






25. Increasing the number of existing muscle fibers






26. When performing a squat - depth of the squat will determine

33. Start out using very general approaches to fitness






34. A disadvantage of training with machine weights






35. Athlete should be at his or her peak






36. Dormant cells that - when stimulated - 'turn on' - re-enter the cell cycle - and then differentiate to form myofibrils






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






38. Attempt to make the training process more objectively measurable - thus more accurately planned and evaluated along the way to a more reliable peak






39. Generally - What is the correct order in which exercises should be performed






40. When performing a squat - depth of the squat will determine






41. When one cannot perform more repetitions - or when he or she cannot increase the weight - then the exercises should be






42. If training is enough to cause an adaptation






43. Strength and conditioning is thought to enhance the resting levels of anaerobic substances. This means that there is more fuel on hand for






44. Increasing the number of existing muscle fibers






45. Are able to generate more force than muscles with less angle






46. Exercise enhances the quantity and activation of the enzymes that control the anaerobic phase of

48. States that everyone is different and will react to an exercise stimulus differently.






49. Exercise enhances the quantity and activation of the enzymes that control the anaerobic phase of
