,Term 7 of 207
Which of the following correctly describes the technique used in PNF (Proprioceptive
Neuromuscular Facilitation)?
Passively moving the muscle in dynamic motion to increase flexibility.
A contract-relax sequence to relax the muscle stretch reflex mechanism.
Using muscle contraction of the extensors followed by muscle contraction of the flexors.
The required period of exercise for eliciting adaptation.
Term 8 of 207
Which of the following statements is correct regarding the warm-up and cool-down
components of
the exercise training session?
Warm-up should last twice as long as cool-down.
Cool-down should approximate an intensity that is between 40 and 60% of VO2R

exercise
session involves resistance training.
Cool-down during the exercise session can be eliminated if at least 10 minutes of
stretching is
performed instead.
