and Conditioning questions with
|\ |\ |\ |\




answers

AEROBIC - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Using oxygen.|\ |\ |\ |\ |\




AEROBIC ACTIVITIES - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Activities using
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



large muscle groups at moderate intensities that permit the body
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



to use oxygen to supply energy to maintain a steady state for
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



more than a few minutes. See steady state.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\




AEROBIC ENDURANCE - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔The ability to
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



continue anaerobic activity over a period of time.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\




AGONIST - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔A muscle which directly
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



engages in an action around a joint which has another muscle that
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



can provide an opposing action.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\




ANAEROBIC - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Not using oxygen. |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\




ANAEROBIC ACTIVITIES - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Activities using
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



muscle groups at high intensities that exceed the body's capacity
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



to use oxygen to supply energy and create and oxygen debt by
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



using energy produced without oxygen.
|\ |\ |\ |\

,ANAEROBIC ENDURANCE - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔The ability to |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



continue anaerobic activity over a period of time (much shorter
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



time than with aerobic activity).
|\ |\ |\ |\




ANAEROBIC THRESHOLD - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔The point |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



where increasing energy demands of exercise cannot be met by
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



the use of oxygen, and an oxygen debt begins to be incurred.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\




ANTAGONIST - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔A muscle that can provide |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



an opposing action to the action of another muscle (the agonist)
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



around a joint. |\ |\




ATROPHY - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Reduction in size, or wasting
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



away, of a body part, organ, tissue or cell.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\




CARDIOVASCULAR - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Pertaining to the |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



heart and blood vessels.
|\ |\ |\




CONCENTRIC ACTION - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Muscle action in |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



which the muscle is shortening under its own power. This action is
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



commonly called "positive" work, or, redundantly, "concentric
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



contraction."


COOL DOWN - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔A gradual reduction of the
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



intensity of exercise to allow physiological processes to return to
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



normal. Helps avoid blood pooling in the legs and may reduce
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



muscular soreness. |\

, DEHYDRATION - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔The condition resulting |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



from the excessive loss of body water.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\




DURATION - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔The time spent in a single
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



exercise session. Duration, along with frequency and intensity, are
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



factors affection the effectiveness of exercise.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\




ECCENTRIC ACTION - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Muscle action in |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



which the muscle resists while it lengthens. This action is
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



commonly called "negative" work, or "eccentric contraction," but,
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



since the muscle is lengthening, the word "contraction" is
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



misapplied.


ENDURANCE - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔The capacity to continue a |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



physical performance over a period of time.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\




ENERGY - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔The capacity to produce
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



work.,from food. |\




EXERCISE - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Physical exertion of sufficient
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



intensity, duration and frequency to achieve or maintain fitness, or
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



other health or athletic objectives.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\




EXPIRATION - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Breathing air out of the |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



lungs.
