VERIFIED FOR GUARANTEED PASS.
3 types of Preventative Medicine - ANS 1. Primary prevention: things we do to prevent injury
like warmup stretching and training
2. Secondary prevention: things we do once and injury has occured like antibiotics or
antiinflammatories, or rehab and taping
3. Tertiary prevention: things we do when original function can't be restored like things to
improve quality of life and reduce long-term impairment
General Conditioning involves what 4 areas? - ANS 1. Endurance Training
C.O. - H.R. X S.V.
Fitness is proportional to 1/resting H.R.
30 minutes, H.R. 150bpm, 3 times per week
2+3. Strength and Power Training
Resistance (weight) training
Isometric vs.. isotonic
Plyometrics
Who, why, when, how
4. Flexibility Training
Who, why, when, how
Nutrition what % of each macro-nutrient is needed - ANS Protein 20 - 25%
1 @COPYRIGHT 2025/2026 ALLRIGHTS RESERVED
,Fats 15 - 20%
Carbohydrates 55 - 60%
Fads
Hydration
Water
Electrolytes
what role do Vitamins and Minerals play?
what is the difference b/w ADEK vs. BC? - ANS they play a role in metabolism of carbs and
fats and help rebuild
adek= fat soluble so are stored in fat
bc= water soluble so we pee excess out in urine
what are the 5 major minerals? and 5 trace minerals? what aount do we need of each/day -
ANS major= Na, K, Ca, P, Mg need 100mg/day
trace= Fe, Zn, Co, Se, Cr need less than 20 mg/day
dehydrated athletes have a(n) ___volume of blood. why is this good or bad?
what % loss of water body weight can negatively affect performance? - ANS decreased; bad
because working muscles aren't getting enough oxygen and by-products of exercise aren't
being flushed out, eventually performance suffers
2%
what are electrolytes? - ANS sodium; during exercise may help maintain and restore plasma
volume, it increases absorption of fluid from intestines into muscles; 6-8% carb. drink with
110mg of Na prounce is great
what is shock, 4 forms, 4 signs and 3 treatments? - ANS - Definition: Inadequate tissue
perfusion
-4 Forms
Cardiac (reduced C.O. leads to reduced B.P.)
2 @COPYRIGHT 2025/2026 ALLRIGHTS RESERVED
, Septic (dilated veins lead to reduced B.P.)
Traumatic (reduced blood volume leads to reduced C.O./B.P.)
Anaphylactic
- 4 Signs and Symptoms
Reduced B.P. (pulses weak)
Reflexive increase H.R. (tachycardia)
Skin cool and clammy (warm and dry if septic shock)
Anxiety, thirst, impaired consciousness
-3 Treatments
N.P.O.
ABCD's
Transport to medical centre A.S.A.P.
5 important part of Bone - ANS 1. Shaft
2. Metaphysis
3. Epiphysis
4. Epiphyseal plate
5. Periosteum
8 Joint Structures - ANS 1. Bones (which articulate)
2. Joint capsule
3. Synovial membrane and fluid
4. Cartilage (hyaline vs.. fibrocartilage)
5. Bursae
6. Nerves, blood vessels
7. Ligaments
8. Muscle tendons
