PTI LEVEL 1 AND 2 COMPLETE EXAM QUESTIONS AND
100% VERIFIED ANSWERS (PASS GUARANTEE)
1. Q: What are the three main types of muscle tissue in the human body?
ANSWER Skeletal (voluntary), cardiac (heart), and smooth
(involuntary/organs)
2. Q: What is the primary function of the cardiovascular system?
ANSWER To transport oxygen, nutrients, hormones, and waste products
throughout the body
3. Q: Name the three types of muscle contractions. ANSWER Concentric
(shortening), eccentric (lengthening), and isometric (static/no change in length)
4. Q: What is the role of ligaments? ANSWER Ligaments connect bone to
bone and provide joint stability
5. Q: What do tendons connect? ANSWER Tendons connect muscle to bone
6. Q: What is the primary energy system used during short, explosive
movements (0-10 seconds)? ANSWER ATP-PC (phosphagen) system
7. Q: Which energy system is dominant during moderate-intensity exercise
lasting 2-3 minutes? ANSWER Anaerobic glycolysis (lactic acid system)
8. Q: What is the main fuel source for the aerobic energy system?
ANSWER Carbohydrates and fats (with oxygen)
9. Q: What is the function of the diaphragm? ANSWER The primary
muscle of respiration that contracts to allow air into the lungs
10. Q: What is synovial fluid? ANSWER Lubricating fluid found in joint
capsules that reduces friction
11. Q: Name the four chambers of the heart. ANSWER Right atrium, right
ventricle, left atrium, left ventricle
12. Q: What is the difference between aerobic and anaerobic exercise?
ANSWER Aerobic uses oxygen for energy production; anaerobic operates
without sufficient oxygen
13. Q: What is resting heart rate? ANSWER The number of heartbeats per
minute when the body is at complete rest
,14. Q: What is stroke volume? ANSWER The amount of blood pumped by
the left ventricle per heartbeat
15. Q: What is cardiac output? ANSWER The amount of blood pumped by
the heart per minute (heart rate × stroke volume)
16. Q: What are the three main body types (somatotypes)? ANSWER
Ectomorph (lean), mesomorph (muscular), endomorph (rounder)
17. Q: What is the role of red blood cells? ANSWER To transport oxygen
from the lungs to tissues and carbon dioxide back to the lungs
18. Q: What is the function of the skeletal system? ANSWER Support,
protection of organs, movement, mineral storage, and blood cell production
19. Q: How many bones are in the adult human body? ANSWER
Approximately 206 bones
20. Q: What is the difference between slow-twitch and fast-twitch muscle
fibers? ANSWER Slow-twitch (Type I) are fatigue-resistant and used for
endurance; fast-twitch (Type II) generate more force but fatigue quickly
21. Q: What is the prime mover (agonist)? ANSWER The muscle primarily
responsible for producing a specific movement
22. Q: What is an antagonist muscle? ANSWER The muscle that opposes
the action of the agonist
23. Q: What is the role of stabilizer muscles? ANSWER To hold body parts
in position while other muscles perform movements
24. Q: What is flexion? ANSWER A movement that decreases the angle
between two body parts
25. Q: What is extension? ANSWER A movement that increases the angle
between two body parts
26. Q: What is abduction? ANSWER Movement away from the midline of
the body
27. Q: What is adduction? ANSWER Movement toward the midline of the
body
28. Q: What is the anatomical position? ANSWER Standing upright, feet
together, arms at sides, palms facing forward
29. Q: What is the sagittal plane? ANSWER The plane that divides the body
into left and right halves
, 30. Q: What is the frontal (coronal) plane? ANSWER The plane that
divides the body into front and back halves
Exercise Principles and Programming (30 Questions)
31. Q: What does the FITT principle stand for? ANSWER Frequency,
Intensity, Time, and Type
32. Q: What is progressive overload? ANSWER Gradually increasing
training demands to improve fitness levels
33. Q: What is the principle of specificity? ANSWER Training adaptations
are specific to the type of exercise performed
34. Q: What is the principle of reversibility? ANSWER Fitness
improvements are lost when training stops (use it or lose it)
35. Q: What is the principle of individuality? ANSWER People respond
differently to the same training stimulus
36. Q: What is a repetition (rep)? ANSWER One complete movement of an
exercise
37. Q: What is a set? ANSWER A group of consecutive repetitions
38. Q: What is training volume? ANSWER The total amount of work
performed (sets × reps × weight)
39. Q: What is training intensity? ANSWER How hard you work, typically
expressed as a percentage of maximum effort
40. Q: What is the recommended rest time between sets for strength
training? ANSWER 2-5 minutes for heavy strength work; 30-90 seconds for
hypertrophy
41. Q: What is periodization? ANSWER Systematic variation of training
variables over time to optimize performance
42. Q: What is a mesocycle? ANSWER A training block typically lasting 3-6
weeks with a specific focus
43. Q: What is a microcycle? ANSWER A short training period, usually one
week
44. Q: What is a macrocycle? ANSWER A long-term training plan, typically
spanning several months to a year
