Physical Fitness: Answer- the ability of the body's physical parts to function, and is measured by the level at which these physical parts are capable of functioning 2. What are the five primary components of fitness?: Answer- 1) Cardiorespiratory en- durance 2) Muscular Strength 3) Muscular Endurance 4) Flexibility 5) Body Composition 3. Cardiorespiratory endurance: Answer- The capacity of the cardiovascular and respirato- ry systems to deliver oxygen to the working muscles for sustained periods of energy production 4. Muscular Strength: Answer- The maximum force that can be exerted by a muscle or muscle group against a resistance 5. Muscular Endurance: Answer- The capacity of a muscle to exert force repeatedly or to hold a fixed or static contraction over time AEA Certification Exam Questions and Answers Latest Updated 2024/2025, Graded A+ 2 / 4 6. Flexibility: The ability of limbs to move at the joints through a normal range of motion 7. Body composition: The body's relative percentage of fat as compared to lean tissue (bones, muscle, and organs) 8. What are the six skill-related components of fitness?: 1) Balance 2) Coordination 3) Speed 4) Power 5) Agility 6) Reaction Time 9. Balance: Controlling the position of the body's center of gravity, or maintenance of equilibrium while stationary (static balance) or moving (dynamic balance). 10. Coordination: The integration of many separate motor skills or movements into one efficient pattern 11. Speed: The rate at which a movement or activity can be performed 12. Power: A function of strength and speed. The ability to transfer energy into force at a quick rate. 13. Agility: The ability to rapidly and fluently change body positioning during movement 3 / 4 14. Reaction Time: The amount of time elapsed between stimulation and acting upon the stimulus 15. What are the fitness programming and design components for the ACSM guidelines and reccomendations?: 1) Mode of training (or exercise) 2) Frequency of training 4 / 4 3) Intensity of training 4) Duration of training 5) Flexibility 6) Neuromuscular exercises 16. Skeletal System: all bones, including cartilage and joints 17. Muscular: All muscles including ligaments and tendons 18. Digestive: digestive tract, including liver, gallbladder, and pancreas 19. Lateral: Away from the midline of the body 20. supine: face up 21. prone: face down 22. Long bones: 1)longer than they are wide; found in appendages 2 Contain a diaphysis (shaft), and two ends the epophysis i.e. femur, tibia, fibula, radius, ulna, and humerus 23. Short bones: 1) = W and L, cuboidal i.e. wrist and ankle 24. Flat bones: 1) Thin and generally flat 2) Protection and surface area for muscles to attach i.e. cranial bones and scapula 25. Irregular Bones: 1) Complex shapes 5 / 4 i.e. vertebrae 26. Periosteum: 1) Dense,white,fibrous sheath that covers the surface of the bone 2) Where the muscles and tendons attach 27. Medullary Cavity: Cavity within the shaft of the long bones filled with yellow fattybone marrow 28. Endosteum: Layer of cells that line the Medullary Cavity 29. Ossification: Bone formation 30. Epiphyseal Plates: cartilaginous growth plates located at either end of bones *common in long bones
