CANFITPRO 2026 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS SURE
A+
✔✔what are the nervous systems comprised of - ✔✔central nervous system
- brain/spinal cord
peripheral nervous system
-outside the brain and the spinal cord - delivers shit
✔✔Central Names of Primary Muscles - ✔✔Motor Unit
a single neuron together with the fibers that commands
Proprioceptors
specialized sensory receptors found in joints muscles and tendons (coordination)
Muscle Spindles
tells muscle how much it needs to contract to overcome a given stretch
Golgi tendon organs
proprioceptors activated when muscles contract
prevents injuries
, ✔✔prime mover(agonist) -> antagonist - ✔✔Rectus Abdominis -> Erector Spinae
Biceps Brachii -> Triceps Brachii
Quadriceps -> Hamstrings
Anterior Tibialis -> Gastrocnemius/soleus
Latissimus Dorsi -> Deltoids
✔✔origin and insertion - ✔✔SEE CHART
✔✔benefits of resistance training - ✔✔muscle fiber size
muscle contractile strength
coordination among muscles groups
muscle fiber recruitment
tendon and ligament contractile strength
bone strength
✔✔Resistance Training Guidelines - ✔✔see page 122 CHART 6.12
✔✔Resistance Training Guidelines for Specific Training Results (Intensity % of 1RM) -
✔✔Muscle of Endurance
>70% of 1RM
Muscular Strength and Hypertrophy
70-80% of 1RM
Muscular Power and Maximal Strength
80-100% or 1RM
✔✔What is flexibility? - ✔✔range of motion, motor control, strength, balance,
coordination, endurance, mental/emotional focus
✔✔benefits of flexibility - ✔✔1. improves overall body mobility
- removes imbalances that restrict muscle contractions
- improves posture
- improves blood flow
2. improves range of motion
- improves balance
- removes barriers to speed and agility
reduces feelings of stiffness
3. improves ability of muscles and connective tissues to lengthen
- increases efficiency of movement
- improve ability to relax/recover training
- decreases trigger point of formation
