NASM CPT FINAL EXAM WITH VERIFIED
QUESTIONS AND CORRECT SOLUTIONS
Intrinsic - correct answer - located from within and
acting directly on a structure being considered
Intrinsic core stabilizers - correct answer - deep inner
muscles behind the superficial abdominals that have a
direct effect on stabilizing the lumbo pelvic hip complex
Retraction - correct answer - adduction of the shoulder
blades where the blades move toward the spine
Four muscles of the rotator cuff - correct answer -
supraspiatus Infraspinator
Teres minor
Subscapularis
,Shoulder impingement - correct answer - when the
space between the bone on top of the shoulder and the
tendons of the rotator cuff rub against each other during
elevation.
Pronation of the foot - correct answer - a combo of
dorsiflexion, eversion and abduction
Supination of the foot - correct answer - a combo of
plantar flexion inversion and adduction
Flexibility - correct answer - the normal extensibility of soft
tissue which allows a joint to be moved through its full range
of motion
Corrective exercise - correct answer - programming
process that identifies neuromuscular dysfunction
develops a plan of action and implements a corrective
strategy as part of an exercise training program
,Neuromuscular efficiency - correct answer - when the
neuromuscular system allows agonists antagonists, and
stabilizers to synergistically produce muscle actions in all
three planes of motion
Nervous system - correct answer - a conglomeration of
billions of cells specifically designed to provide a
communication network within the human body
Central nervous system - correct answer - division of the
nervous system comprising the brain and the spinal cord.
Its primary function is to coordinated activity of all parts
Motor control - correct answer - how the cns integrates
internal and external sensory info with previous experiences
to produce a motor response.
Motor learning - correct answer - integration of motor control
processes with practice and experience that leads to
relatively permanent changes in the bodys capacity to
produce skilled movements
, Motor development - correct answer - change in motor skill
behavior over time throughout the lifespan
Structural efficiency - correct answer - the structural
alignment of the muscular and skeletal systems that allows
the body to maintain balance in relation to its center of
gravity
Electron transport chain - correct answer - a series of
compounds transfer electrons from electron donors to
electron acceptors generating ATP in the process
Flavin adenine dinucleotide - correct answer - a redox
cofactor more specifically a prosthetic group involved in
several important metabolic reactions
Medial - correct answer - the midline of the body
Distal - correct answer - further away from the midline of the
body
