NSCA CPSS EXAM NEWEST VERSION REAL
EXAM WITH 200 QUESTIONS AND CORRECT
VERIFIED ANSWERS WITH RATIONALES FROM
A VERIFIED SOURCE |ALREADY GRADED A+
How is biological adaptation achieved? - ANSWER-by disturbing the current capacity of the system
What is supercompensation? - ANSWER-Supercompensation is the effect whereby performance is
enhanced if the body is able/allowed to adapt.
What syndrome is supercompensation related to? - ANSWER-General adaptation syndrome
What is general adaptation syndrome? - ANSWER-The framework of interaction between the imposed
training stress, acute fatigue response, adaptation, and a new level of homeostasis/performance.
How does overtraining syndrome develop? - ANSWER-After continued high volume, high intensity
training or both when an athlete is over-reached.
, Understand the relevant theory and principles that underpin training. - ANSWER-Training Load model,
Periodization, Parallel training model, Sequential Training Model,
Periodization vs Programming - ANSWER-Periodization is a a macro-management strategy that serves
as a training blueprint, from which periods of time are assigned that target specific skills, fitness, or
performance related factors. Volume and intensity are inversely related. 1-3 peaks/macrocycles per year
Programming is an operation of strategic thinking which is best accomplished when ongoing monitoring is
integrated into the periodization process.
Which training model is when performance of a positive fitness effect and a negative fatigue effect decay
exponentially over time but at different rates? - ANSWER-Fitness-fatigue model
What is the dose-response relationship? - ANSWER-relationship between the size of an administered
dose and the intensity of the response produced
What qualifies as external load? - ANSWER-Amount of weight lifted, distance/speed of running, its what
an athlete has done.
What is it called when an athlete has responded to an external load? - ANSWER-Internal load
How is external load measured? - ANSWER-camera systems, global positioning systems, local
positioning systems, often in conjunction with other sensors such as accelerometers and power meters.
