Question 1
____ is defined as the maximum force that can be exerted by a muscle or muscle group
against a resistance
CORRECT ANSWER
muscular strength
Question 2
what type of stretching activates the muscle spindles, specialized receptors in the muscle
that monitor muscle length change and the speed of muscle length change?
CORRECT ANSWER
ballistic stretching
Question 3
name the six skill-related components of fitness
CORRECT ANSWER
balance, coordination, speed, power, agility, and reaction time
Question 4
what is the difference between maximal heart rate and heart rate reserve
CORRECT ANSWER
1
@THE STUDY VAULT
, maximal heart rate is the highest heart rate a person can achieve. it is measured with a
max HR test or estimated with 220- age. Heart rate reserve is your maximal HR minus your
resting heart rate.
Question 5
how does compression lower your heart rate in the water?
CORRECT ANSWER
water compresses all the body systems, including the vascular system, causing a smaller
venous load to the heart, reducing heart rate.
Question 6
what is the ACSM (2018) recommended frequency for resistance training?
CORRECT ANSWER
two to three days/week for each major muscle group
Question 7
define body composition
CORRECT ANSWER
the body's relative percentage of fat as compared to lean tissue (bones, muscles, and
organs)
Question 8
list five benefits of regular exercise
CORRECT ANSWER
2
@THE STUDY VAULT
, improves physical appearance, increases functional capacity, heart becomes stronger,
strengthens the walls of the blood vessels, improves strength and endurance,
Question 9
when calculating exercise intensity, a popular method is the Karvonen Formula, which is
also known as the ____
CORRECT ANSWER
Heart Rate Reserve method
Question 10
____ is a subjective method of assessing effort, strain, discomfort, and fatigue experienced
during exercise.
CORRECT ANSWER
rating of perceived exertion
Question 11
The skeletal system provides our bodies with support, protection, and _____.
CORRECT ANSWER
