QUESTIONS AND SOLUTIONS GRADED A+
● Injury Prevention. Answer: Strategies and protocols reducing the incidence of
exercise-related injuries
● Warm-Up. Answer: Low-intensity preparatory activity increasing tissue temperature and
readiness
● Cool-Down. Answer: Gradual reduction of exercise intensity facilitating recovery

● Sprain. Answer: Ligament injury from overstretching or tearing
● Strain. Answer: Muscle or tendon injury from overstretching or tearing
● Contusion. Answer: Bruise from blunt force trauma damaging soft tissue without breaking
the skin
● Tendinitis. Answer: Inflammation of a tendon from acute or repetitive stress
● Tendinopathy. Answer: Broad term for tendon pain and dysfunction including degenerative
changes
