NASM STUDY COMPLETE Guide. Latest 2021/2022. Graded A+. 99% Comprehension Document Content and Description Below Subjective Information - Information that is gathered from a prospective client to give the health and fitness professional feedback regarding personal history such as occupation, lifestyle and medical background. Program Design - A purposeful system or plan put together to help an individual achieve a specific goal. Biomechanics - A study that uses principals of physics to quantitatively study how forces interact within a living body. Dietary Supplement - A substance that completes or makes an addition to daily dietary intake. Proprioceptively enriched environment - An unstable (but controlled) environment where exercises are performed that causes the body to use its internal balance and stabilization mechanisms Reactive Training - Exercises that use quick, powerful movements involving an eccentric contraction immediately followed by an explosive concentric contraction. Obesity - Fastest growing health problem in the US The Nervous System - It is a conglomeration of billions of cells forming nerves that are specifically designed to provide a communication network within the human body nervous system, skeletal system and muscular system - kinetic chain Heart - Muscular pump that rhythmically contracts to push blood throughout the body Dynamic Joint Stabilization - The ability of the kinetic chain to stabilize a joint during movement. Speed - The ability to move the body in one intended direction as fast as possible. The Core - The lumbo-pelvic -hip complex and the thoracic and cervical spine, where the body's center of gravity is located Flexibility - The normal extensibility of all soft tissues that allow the full range of motion of a joint. Nutrition - The sum of the processes by which an animal or plant takes in and uses food substances. Blood - Acts as a medium to deliver and collect essential products to and from the tissues of the body. Protein - Amino acids linked by peptide bonds. Diabetes - Chronic metabolic disorder, in which the body's ability to produce insulin or to utilize glucose is altered Rate of force production - How quickly a muscle can generate force Superior - Positioned above a point of reference. Dynamic Range of Motion - The combination of flexibility and the nervous system's ability to control this range efficiently. General Adaptation Syndrome - The kinetic chain's ability to adapt to stresses placed on it. Multisensory Condition - Training environment that provides heightened stimulation to proprioceptors and mechanoreceptors. Cardiorespiratory system - A system comprised of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems Rate of Force Production - Ability of muscles to exert maximal force output in a minimal amount of time. Acute Variables - Important components that specify how each exercise is to be performed. Inferior - Positioned below a point of reference. sensory function - The ability to sense changes in either external or internal environments Neromuscular efficiency - The ability of the neuromuscular system to allow agonists, antagonists, and stabilizers to work synergistically and control the entire kinetic chain in all three planes of motion Estimated Average Requirement (EAR) - The average daily nutrient intake level that is estimated to meet the requirement of half the healthy individuals who are in a particular life stage and gender group. Controlled Instability - Training environment that is unstable as can safely be controlled by an individual. Blood Vessel - A hollow tube that allows blood to be transported to and from the heart General Warm-Up - A low intensity exercise consisting of movements that do not necessarily relate to the more intense exercise that is to follow. Hypertension - blood pressure of 140/90 or higher integrative function - The ability to analyze and interpret sensory information to allow for proper decision making, which produces appropriate response Repetition (Rep) - One complete movement of a single exercise. Distal - Positioned farthest from the center of the body. Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) - The average daily nutrient intake level that is sufficient to meet the nutrient requirement of nearly all healthy individuals who are in a particular life stage and gender group. Extensibility - The capability to be elongated or stretched. Adequate Intake (AI) - A recommended average daily nutrient intake level, based on observed approximations or estimates of nutrient intake that are assumed to be adequate for a group of healthy people. This measure is used when an RDA cannot be determined. Deconditioned - A state of lost physical fitness, which may include muscle imbalances, decreased flexibility, and/or a lack of core and joint stability Specific Warm-Up - Low intensity exercise consisting of movements that mimic those that will be included in the mor
