3. Which strategy best illustrates an appropriate
application of the fitness training principle of progressive
overload in the context of a student's goal of improving
cardiorespiratory endurance?
A. The student warms up the same muscle groups that will
be used in the main endurance workout with a brief, low-
intensity activity.
B. Before beginning endurance training workouts, the
student engages in dynamic stretching of major muscles
to promote enhanced joint range of motion.
C. The student periodically varies the type of endurance
training performed, and increases the duration and
intensity of workouts in small increments over time.

D.The student goes well beyond a comfortable level
during endurance training to produce physical discomfort,
and then adjusts the workout to minimize the discomfort. -
Answer-C. The student periodically varies the type of
endurance training performed, and increases the duration
and intensity of workouts in small increments over time.
Correct Response: C. This item requires examinees to
apply principles of physical condition and training (e.g.,
frequency, intensity, type, duration, progressive overload,
specificity) and types of training approaches and
conditioning programs. The principle of overload states
that, to improve fitness levels, a body system must be
stressed beyond the level of work that it is accustomed to
by increasing the duration or intensity of regular workouts.
Consistent stress, or overload, causes a physiological
adaptation to occur in the body that is expressed as an
increased level of cardiorespiratory fitness and/or strength.
Increases in stress loads should be small and progressive
to avoid physical discomfort and possible injury, and to
ensure safety
4. In general, adolescent students who are physically
active on a regular basis derive physiological health
benefits that adolescent students who are sedentary do

not. Moderate to vigorous physical activity allows the
active adolescents to more readily:
A. develop and grow new muscle fibers.
B. eliminate the buildup of lactic acid around muscle
tissues.
C. expend fat stores in addition to glycogen to fuel muscle
actions.
D. reduce the need to store glycogen in muscles for later
energy demands - Answer-C. expend fat stores in addition
to glycogen to fuel muscle actions.
Correct Response: C. This item requires examinees to
describe the role of body systems in producing movement
and the physiological changes that result from physical
activity. Energy derived from dietary fat helps fuel low- to
moderate-intensity activity as students build up to greater
levels of intensity. During exercise, carbohydrates such as
sugars and starches are broken down quickly into glucose,
the body's main energy source. But as the duration of
exercise increases, intensity decreases, and fat becomes
an important fuel source, sparing glycogen reserves.
Stored fat is broken down and transported through the
bloodstream to muscles, allowing carbohydrates to be

used at a slower rate, which extends physical endurance
and delays the onset of fatigue.
In a first-grade physical education class, students
participate in an obstacle course activity that incorporates
animal walks and movements. As students travel through
the course, the teacher emphasizes relevant vocabulary
words. For instance, the teacher asks students to crawl
start under a low bench like a lizard, climb start over a pile
of mats like a mountain goat, jump a start zigzag pattern
like a rabbit, and walk start quickly like a lemur start
across a balance beam on the floor. Which student
learning outcome is this physical education activity most
likely designed to elicit?
A. Demonstrate variations in movement with directional,
spatial, and temporal awareness.
B. Apply an understanding of rules and directions for an
active class.
c. Identify major body parts, muscles, and bones used to
move and support the body.
d.Exhibit cooperative play with children of differing abilities
under a variety of conditions. - Answer-A. Demonstrate
variations in movement with directional, spatial, and
temporal awareness.
