A+ Brand New Version!!
agility - CORRECT ANSWER: - ability to control the direction of the body or body parts during
movement
anatomical locations - CORRECT ANSWER: 1. superior (upper)
2. inferior (lower)
3. proximal (toward center)
4. distal (away from center)
5. anterior (front)
6. posterior (back)
7. medial (middle)
8. lateral (side)
9. contralateral (opposite side)
10. ipsilateral (same side)
aspects of personal fitness that are included in program design - CORRECT ANSWER: -
anatomy, physiology, kinesiology, basic nutrition and knowledge of training, special populations
balance - CORRECT ANSWER: -the body's ability to maintain equilibrium by controlling the
body center of gravity over its base support
best order for fitness assessments - CORRECT ANSWER: 1. non-fatiguing tests
2. agility tests
,3. maximal strengthened power tests
4. sprint tests
5. muscular endurance tests
6. flexibility tests
biomechanics - CORRECT ANSWER: -use of engineering principles and applying them to
biological organisms (mechanics of tissues, joints, and human movement)
biomechanics and exercise: anatomy - CORRECT ANSWER: 1. muscles composed of millions
of fibers
2. these fibers are wrapped by fascia, or connective tissue, called endomysium
3. endomysium forms bundles that are surrounded by another layer of tissue called the
perimysium
4. perimysium covered by a fibrous facial layer called the epimysium
5. epimysium extends from the tendons that connect the bones to muscles
body mass index (BMI) - CORRECT ANSWER: - weight (kg) / [height (m)]^2
- weight (lb) / [height (in)]^2 x 703
cardiorespiratory system - CORRECT ANSWER: -offer oxygen, protective agents, and nutrients
to the tissues of the kinetic chain (muscular, articular, neural systems)
cardiovascular system three compounds - CORRECT ANSWER: 1. heart
2. blood vessels carrying blood between heart and tissue
3. blood
central nervous system - CORRECT ANSWER: brain and spinal cord
, CNS: four major sections of the brain - CORRECT ANSWER: 1. cerebrum= largest part of the
brain (80%), left and right hemispheres
2. diencephalons= center part of the brain
3. cerebellum= rear part of the brain
4. brain stem= connects the cerebrum and cerebellum to the spinal cord
coordination - CORRECT ANSWER: - complex process in which motion of the body is
conducted through a combination of muscle groups working together with appropriate timing
cross-training - CORRECT ANSWER: -using a variety of modes of cardiovascular training
daily calories - CORRECT ANSWER: - 40-60% carbohydrates
- 25-30% fats
exercise heart rate - CORRECT ANSWER: resting heart rate + [0.6 x (maximum heart rate-
resting heart rate)]
five biomechanics benefits of warm-up - CORRECT ANSWER: 1. cardiorespiratory
enhancements
2. prevents premature fatigue during workouts
3. heighten body temp
4. enhances motor skills and brain transitions for continuos activity
5. symtoms of pain, stress, or discomfort from the skeletal muscles or cardiovascular systems are
increased
five primary variables of kinematics - CORRECT ANSWER: 1. timing of movement
2. positioning
3. rearrangement
4. speed
