Q: What type of muscle contraction maintains constant tension in the muscle as the length changes?
Isotonic (the correct answer)
Q: The SSC of muscle contraction driving plyometrics has three phases: a loading eccentric phase, a
transitional amortization phase, and a(n)
unloading concentric phase. (the correct answer)
Q: During which stage of the SSC are the muscle spindles stretched along with the noncontractile tissues
within the muscle?
Eccentric phase (the correct answer)
Q: What detects changes in length of muscle fiber, and signal through afferent neurons to the spinal
cord and the brain?
Muscle spindle (the correct answer)
Q: Which statement is true regarding plyometrics?
With a foundation of power, plyometrics can benefit athletes of any sport. (the correct answer)
Q: Regarding recovery from plyometric training, what is the recommended duration of rest between
training sessions?
,48-72 hours (the correct answer)
Q: Regarding the progression of plyometric exercises, which of the following is the logical progression
from the squat jump?
Broad jump (the correct answer)
Q: Which of the following statements regarding the progression of plyometric exercises is correct?
Quick changes of direction encourage neuromuscular overload. (the correct answer)
Q: Within the SSC, the transition from absorbing force to generating force and acceleration is the
amortization phase. (the correct answer)
Q: A slower eccentric phase will result in
less potential energy than a faster eccentric phase. (the correct answer)
Q: A longer amortization phase will result in
the loss of potential energy in the form of heat and reduced kinetic output in muscle contraction. (the
correct answer)
Q: The core is also known as the
lumbopelvic-hip-complex (LPHC). (the correct answer)
Q: The musculature of the core is divided into
local and global stabilizers. (the correct answer)
Q: Physical therapists and orthopedic specialists use three widely accepted tests of muscular endurance
to test core endurance over strength: flexor endurance test, extensor endurance test, and the
side bridge. (the correct answer)
Q: Which of the following does research suggest, regarding the core?
Muscular endurance of the core is more important for core stability than strength (the correct answer)
Q: The first step in core progression focuses on
muscle recruitment. (the correct answer)
Q: Which of the following exercises is often used for stabilization and core stability?
Bird dog (the correct answer)
Q: When performing the standing landmine twist exercise, the athlete should
avoid lumbar rotation. (the correct answer)
Q: Where should an athlete's elbows be placed when performing a plank exercise?
Directly below the shoulders (the correct answer)
, Q: When performing a sit-up, the athlete should lie supine
with knees bent at 90 degrees and arms crossed at the chest. (the correct answer)
Q: Which of the following core exercise is considered a multi-planar exercise?
Modified side plank with hip external rotation (the correct answer)
Q: There are various major dysfunctions of the hip a coach can observe, including
lateral weight shift. (the correct answer)
Q: What is the largest and most complex joint in the body?
Knee (the correct answer)
Q: Which of the following is a muscle involved in controlling the knee?
Popliteus (the correct answer)
Q: The three main bones in the ankle are the tibia, the fibula, and the
talus. (the correct answer)
Q: Which of the following is a muscle involved in controlling the ankle?
Gastrocnemius (the correct answer)
Q: What are the primary movements of the knee?
Flexion and extension (the correct answer)
Q: Movements in the frontal plane are actions requiring
lateral movement. (the correct answer)
Q: What type of loading occurs when the load is held on the opposite side of the forward leg when
performing a lunge?
Contralateral (the correct answer)
Q: Which of the following statements is true regarding the hip hinge?
When performing the hip hinge, athletes should keep the shins as vertical as possible. (the correct
answer)
Q: Performing a squat with a single kettlebell held in a front racked position, is an example of what type
of loading?
Unilateral loading (the correct answer)
Q: The musculature of the upper body can be divided into three groups:
muscles controlling the shoulders, muscles of the chest, and muscles of the back. (the correct answer)
