BPK 241 EXAMINATION TEST 2026 COMPLETE
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS GRADED A+
● what are the 3 ways to prevent an injury? Answer: - reduction of force
(protective equipment, technique development, rules, fairness)
- strength of body parts (strength vs endurance)
- screening of participants (athlete's health, determine fitness, medicines)
● what are the 3 stages to preventative medicine? Answer: primary,
secondary, tertiary prevention
● what is included in primary prevention? Answer: - what we do to
prevent injury (warm up, stretch, training), preparation for phys. activity
● what is secondary prevention? Answer: - once an injury/illness has
occurred
- antibiotics, rehab to return to original function
- physio, chiro, massage
braces/taping
● What is tertiary prevention? Answer: - things we do when original
function can't be restored
,- reduce long-term impairment
- rehab to improve disability
- improve quality of life (wheelchair)
● what are 2 reasons preparing for phys. activity is so crucial? Answer:
- decrease incidence of injuries
- decrease severity of injuries
● - what are 3 broad forms for preparing for phys. activity? Answer:
general conditioning, specific training, protective measures
● what is the cardiac output equation Answer: CO = SV x HR
● What is fitness proportional to? Answer: your resting HR over 1 min
● what increases with exercise intensity? Answer: blood lactate
increases in the muscles
● what is the recommended amount of exercise weekly? Answer: 20-60
mins of HR > 150bpm for atleast 3x per week
● What is isometric contraction? Answer: muscle contracts but does not
change length
, ● What is isotonic contraction? Eccentric? Concentric? Answer:
eccentric - lengthening muscle
concentric - shortening length
● what is the order of least to most stressful contraction on the muscles?
Answer: isometric, concentric, eccentric
● what is static stretching? Answer: stationary, holding stretch
● what is dynamic stretching Answer: stretching while moving
● What is ballistic stretching? Answer: Quick, explosive movements
that involves bobbing, bouncing, jerking to prepare muscle.
● What is PNF stretching? Answer: Proprioceptive Neuromuscular
Facilitation: Tense/Relax method, often referred to as partner stretching.
● what is included in general conditioning? specific training? protective
measures? Answer: - endurance, strength, power, flexibility
- sport-specific, individual specific, skills
- equipment, nutrition, hydration
