performs exercise
2. Timed runs, sit-ups, pull-ups, and push-ups, or your survivability in combat
are all measurements of___: Optimal Fitness
3. Which term is defined as the ability of a muscle to contract repeatedly without
fatiguing or to maintain a contraction for an extended period of time?: Muscular
endurance
4. Which is a change that occurs in the heart and blood vessels as a result of
regular exercise?: Blood pressure decreases
5. Which term defines a molecule that serves as the source of energy for fueling
muscle contraction?: Adenosine Tri-Phosphate (ATP)
6. Which energy pathway is used to fuel quick powerful movements that require
a lot of energy right away?: Anaerobic pathway
7. Which energy pathway is not activated quickly; however, since oxygen is
usually available to the working muscle, it can provide energy for a long period
of time?: Aerobic pathway
8. Which benefit of a warm-up results in both speed and strength enhancement
during exercise?: Increase in body temperature
9. SSgt Handle is recovering from knee surgery. She was told by her doctor to
refrain from performing strenuous exercises right now, but begin using her
legs more often to aid in developing strength. She decides to take a light walk
up the block. Which warm-up would best suit SSgt Handle?: Passive
10. Which guideline for warming-up best suits SSgt Handle who is recovering
from knee surgery but wants to begin conditioning the area?: Adjust the frequency,
intensity, and duration according to your current fitness level
11. Match the steps for static stretch with its correct procedure.: 1. Warm-up for 5 to 15
minutes until you begin to sweat
2. Emphasize slow smooth movements and breathe normally
3. Inhale and then exhale as you stretch to the point of motion just short of discomfort, and then ease back slightly

movements of the arms and legs?: Core musculature
17. Cpl James has a desire to tone his oblique muscles. Which exercise should
Cpl James perform to reach his goal?: Hip Rollers
18. Sgt Nelson has a strength-training program that will allow him to develop the
ability to complete the Marine Corps Marathon that requires running 26 miles.
Which strength-training program is Sgt Nelson most likely using?: Endurance
19. "Effective goals are demanding but achievable" is a description of which goal
setting principle?: Set challenging and realistic goals
20. To restore the energy levels within the muscles and recover from fatigue is
a function of which principle?: Rest
21. Match the guideline for exercise order with its description: 1. Performing a warm-up
before the session begins
2. Training large muscles before training small muscles
3. Full body or multi-joint exercises before single-joint exercises

inactivity for several months. Which short-term physiological adaptation will
MSgt Gray notice within 16 weeks?: Decrease in heart rate
23. MSgt Gray has consistently followed his new aerobic training program for
more than 16 weeks. Which long-term physiological adaptation will occur with
MSgt Gray?: Weight loss
