CANFITPRO LATEST 2026 TEST PAPER EXAM QUESTIONS
AND ANSWERS MARKED A+
✔✔What is a healthy Resting blood pressure? - ✔✔120 systolic ( as the heart contracts)
over
80 diastolic ( as the heart relaxes and fills.)
✔✔What is cardiac output ? - ✔✔The amount of blood the heart ejects in one minute.
✔✔What is the function of the central nervous system? - ✔✔Brain and spinal chord
receives info and responds ( instructs muscles to move and respond accordingly)
✔✔What is the function of the Peripheral nervous system ? - ✔✔senses feelings (
touching burner) information gets sent to CNS which then responds.
✔✔What is the cardio respiratory response to exercise? - ✔✔1.More oxygen is needed
there is an increase in heart rate , Stroke volume and Q.
2.Vasodialation + Vasoconstriction of the arteries to direct oxygenated blood to the
muscles.
3.Increase in systolic blood pressure.
4. Increased rate of respiration
✔✔Describe concentric contraction - ✔✔Muscles shorten
✔✔Describe eccentric contraction - ✔✔Muscle Lengthens
✔✔Describe Isometric contraction - ✔✔Muscle doesn't change but exerts force to stay
in place (resisting an opposing force )
✔✔What are the two main considerations for program design for bone health? - ✔✔1.
Bone density
2.Back Health
✔✔Canfit pros training principals - ✔✔FITT: frequency , intensity , time , type
Individualization: for individual needs of client
Specificity: training specifically for goal/ sport
Progressive overload : constantly challenging to improve.
, Recovery
Structural Tolerance: Handle loading weight
All around development: addresses all other areas of fitness
Reversibility : If you stop you will regress.
Maintenance: what it takes to maintain

Muscle strengthening : work the major muscle groups 3 or more times a week.
Flexibility: 4 or more days a week
Mindset : adopt strategies for a healthy mindset.
