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

how much and how effective the exercise is...
2. According to Brooks - Fahey - and White - the factors that influence a muscle's ability to undergo growth are
energy intake - recruitment - and load
train for what you want - difficult enough to make gains - don't use it you loose it - workouts are same for each person - hardest exercises at beginning - and balanced training.

16. When training for endurance you should do How many sets of each exercise?

to prevent injuries by providing a transition stage between high-intensity exercise and complete rest
17. Exercise enhances your ability to generate and tolerate large levels of

intensity and length
lactic acid
trauma or long-term overuse injuries
18. Machines (unlike free weights)
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.
verly specialized too early in their careers
perform exercises as quickly as possible
Free weights
19. During fast movements ____________________ force production is possible than/as with slower movements.
valsalva maneuver
working of the muscle and joint
lifting posture
