BM2 TEST FINAL TEST 2026
QUESTIONS WITH CORRECT
ANSWERS GRADED A+
◍ Static Stretching.
Answer: Most common stretching technique-Extending the targeted muscle
group to its max point and holding it for 30 sec or more. 2 Forms:-Active-
Added force is applied by the individual -Passive- Added force is applied by
an external force
◍ Dynamic Stretching.
Answer: -Continuous movement patterns that mimic the exercise or sport to
be performed. -Purpose is to improve flexibility for a given sport or activity
◍ Ballistic Stretching.
Answer: -Used for athletic drills -Repeated bouncing movement to stretch
targeted muscle group. -Triggers stretch reflex and may increase risk for
injury-Safe if done from low to high-velocity and followed by static
stretching
◍ What are the two types of short splices used to join end-to-end?.
Answer: Two plain-laid ropes and two plaited ropes
◍ Active Isolated Stretching (AIS).
Answer: -Held only 2 seconds at a time.-Several sets with specific # of reps
and gradually increase resistance by a few degrees each rep
◍ Myofascial Release.
Answer: -Uses a foam roller (or something similar)-Relieves tension and
improves flexibility in the FASCIA (system of connective tissues that
covers the whole body) and underlying muscle. -Small continuous
back-and-forth movements-Over an area of 2-6 in. for 30-60 sec-Amount of
, pressure is determined by client's pain tolerance
◍ What is the main purpose of a Seaman’s (SN) Knife?.
Answer: It is ideal for working with line, featuring a straight cutting edge
and spike used for opening shackles
◍ Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF).
Answer: -Use of AUTOGENIC and RECIPROCAL inhibition-3 forms:
-Hold-Relax -Contract-Relax -Hold-Relax with agonist contraction
◍ What is a Wooden Fid used for?.
Answer: A long, tapered tool used for opening strands in a line for splicing.
◍ Hold-Relax PNF.
Answer: 1) Passive 10-sec pre-stretch2) Hold and resist applied force,
causing isometric contraction in the target muscle group, for 6 secs 3) Relax
muscle group and passively stretch; hold for 30 sec to increase ROM4)
Greater stretch in final phase due to AUTOGENIC inhibition
◍ What are the Sail Palm and Needle primarily used for?.
Answer: Whipping large lines or sewing canvas
◍ What is a Gooseneck boom designed for?.
Answer: Boom designed with a downward bend near the midspan to
accommodate lifting of wide roads such as aircraft.
◍ Contract-Relax PNF.
Answer: 1) Passive 10-sec pre-stretch2) Trainer applies resistance,
counteracting client's force of concentric contraction of target muscle group,
w/out completely restricting joint through its ROM.3)Relax muscle group
and passively stretch; hold for 30 sec to increase ROM4) Greater stretch
during final phase due to AUTOGENIC inhibition
◍ How are load handling evolutions categorized?.
Answer: Critical and non-critical
◍ Hold-Relax with Agonist Contraction PNF.
Answer: 1)Relax muscle group and passively stretch. 2) Concentrically
, contract opposing muscle group (of muscle group that's targeted); hold for
30 sec to increase ROM3) Greater stretch during final phase due to
RECIPROCAL and AUTOGENIC inhibition
◍ Health Risk Appraisal.
Answer: -A screening that addresses: -signs and symptoms of disease -risk
factors -family history-Info can help ID the presence of CVD, Pulmonary, or
other diseases.
◍ PAR-Q.
Answer: -Brief, self-administered medical questionnaire-Safe pre-exercise
screening measure for low-to-moderate (but not vigorous) exercise training
◍ What are critical lifts?.
Answer: include lifts at sea, lifts of ordnance, nuclear propulsion-related
lifts, submerged object lifts, lifts approaching crane capacity (critical lifts is
dangerous expensive cargo equipment).
◍ What are non-critical lifts?.
Answer: all other lifts that are conducted on routine basis.
◍ ACSM Risk Stratification.
Answer: -More comprehensive risk-factoring process-Determined by # of
points. - 1 or less is LOW-RISK - > or =2 is MEDIUM RISK - Being
symptomatic or having known disease is HIGH RISK
◍ Suggestions for Low-Risk Individuals.
Answer: -Medical exam or Doctor supervision is not necessary -
◍ What is the purpose of a hoist (auxiliary)?.
Answer: supplemental hoisting unit usually designed to handle lighter loads
at higher speeds.
◍ Suggestions for Moderate-Risk Individuals.
Answer: -Medical exam is not necessary for moderate exercise but is
recommended for vigorous exercise. -No doctor supervision necessary for
submaximal test but is recommended for maximal test.
, ◍ Suggestions for High-Risk Individuals.
Answer: -Medical exam and doctor supervision is recommended
◍ What is the primary function of the hoist (main)?.
Answer: primary hoist mechanism provided for lifting lowering the rated
load of the crane components.
◍ Moderate-Intensity Exercise.
Answer: -40-60% of VO2R (VO2 Max - resting VO2) or HRR-VT1 is
recommended upper limit
◍ What does 'drift' refer to in crane operations?.
Answer: The motion after the power is off until the brakes are set or crane
motion ceases
◍ What task does the crane operator perform before any load lifts?.
Answer: Review the Crane Operator's Daily Checklist (ODCL) for the
workday
◍ What is the role of the crane signalman?.
Answer: A qualified Rigger, normally in charge of the lift
◍ Kinetic Chain.
Answer: -Combination of several successively arranged joints making a
complex motor unit. -Either open or closed.
◍ What should the crane operator do if they lose sight of the signalman?.
Answer: Stop all operations immediately
◍ What is the role of the tag line-handler in the crane crew?.
Answer: The most junior member of the crew
◍ Open Kinetic Chain Movement.
Answer: -Combination of successively arranged joints that's DISTAL aspect
of extremity (end of chain farthest from body) moves freely and is not fixed
to an object. -I.E. Seated leg extension, Leg Curl, Bench Press, Dumbbell
Biceps Curl, Lat Pull-Down
