Answer: most just don't work and should be avoided due to lack of essential
, nutrients
◍ Carbohydrates help regulate.
Answer: FatProtein Metabolism
◍ Progressive FITT F.

◍ Neuromuscular system: correct notes with clarity, pitch, precision, and
tempo.
Answer: Sensory information
◍ Muscle Fibers used in aerobic/endurance activity (Low force, Long time).
Answer: Slow Twitch fibers (Type I)
◍ Essential functions of fat tissue.
Answer: Temperature regulation, protects organs (shock absorption), energy
source
◍ Recommended % of calories from Fat.
Answer: 20-35%, no more than 10% saturated fat
◍ which of the following best summarizes the relationship between
cardiorespiratory endurance and risk of cardiovascular disease.
Answer: as cardiorespiratory endurance increases, risk decreases
◍ Leptin hormone function.
Answer: Secreted by the adipose tissue, "full" feeling, activates the
sympathetic nervous system
◍ Body composition.
Answer: what the body is made of
◍ What is Overload Training Principle?.
Answer: More then what is normal, putting stress on muscle to build them
◍ Flexibility.
Answer: Ability of a joint and surrounding muscle to move through a full or
optimal range of motion
, ◍ The --- is used to assess lower body strength in older adults.
Answer: chair sit-to-stand test
◍ Omega-6 fatty acid (linoleic acid).
Answer: *3-6 grams a day *Vegetable and nut oils: corn, sunflower, peanut
and soy
◍ Assessment for range of motion for older adults.
Answer: Chair sit and reach test
◍ power.
Answer: produce maximum force in the shortest time
◍ Type of contraction: Greater force, increases risk of muscle soreness, allows
for greater flexibility.
Answer: Eccentric Contraction
◍ Innervation ratio.
Answer: The number of muscle fibers controlled by a single motor neuron;
small ratios allow for fine motor control, while large ratios produce gross
movements (total number of muscle fibers ÷ number of motor neurons
controlling them)
