NASM - CPT 7 QUESTIONS SECTION 1, CHAPTERS 1& 2
1. musculoskeletal System: The combined, interworking system of all muscles, bones in the body.
2. Deconditioned: a state of lost physical fitness, which may include muscle imbalances, decreased flexibili- ty-
and a lack of core and joint stability
3. overweight #'s: 25-29.9%
4. Muscle Imbalance: When muscles on each side of a joint have altered length-tension relationships.
5. joint stability: the support provided by tissues surrounding a joint to maintain and provide control during
movement.
6. kinesiology: study of movement as it relates to anatomy and physiology.
7. What does evidence based practice rely upon?: evidence for guidance and decision-making
and includes developing individual expertise, staying current on the best sources of external evidence (i.e., peer-re-
viewed research), and prioritizing client values and expectations.

mobility
