Change depending on what you are doing
Isometric - Answer--Muscle exerts force without changing length
-Pulling against immovable object
-Postural muscles

Absolute Strength - Answer-Maximal force exerted by the muscle with no regard for
body weight
Relative strength - Answer-force exerted in relation to one's body weight
Hypertrophy - Answer-An increase in muscle size
Neural factors - Answer-Co-ordination of motor units

Tidal Volume - Answer-Air moved during inspiratory or expiratory phase of breathing
cycle; between 0.4 to 1.0 L
of air per breath
Inspiratory Reserve Volume (IRV) - Answer-2.5 to 3.5 L above TV; serves as inhalation
reserve
Expiratory Reserve Volume (ERV): - Answer-After normal exhalation, additional volume
exhaled; 1.0 to 1.5 L for men, 10 to 20% lower for women
