EXSC Final Exam
ACSM and their role - correct answer-American college of sports medicine
developed as a unique blend between physical education, medicine, and physiology
areas of study in exercise physiology - correct answer-exercise frequency
duration of exercise training
types of exercise l's selected
total amount of work performed
age and gender
fitness level
exercise intensity
athletic trainer - correct answer-prevent and treat athletic injuries and provide rehabilitative
services to athletes
blood measurements for exercise science - correct answer-heart rate
blood pressure
rating of perceived exertion
body systems: functions and importance to exercise - correct answer-nervous system:
skeletal system:
framework of the body that allows for movement
muscular system:
provides the body with oxygen and get rid of
respiratory system:
circulatory system:
cardiovascular diseases - correct answer--Myocardial infarction:
•heart attack-> stops blood floow and heart muscles die
•heart failure-> heart muscle can no longer pump enoublood to the body-long-term hypoxia
-Coronary artery disease:
•blockage of blood vessels in heart by plaque
•MI (Myocardial infarction)
•angina (chest pain)
-angina pectoris
-cardiac arrhythmia
-valvular heart disease
-chronic heart failure
-peripheral vascular disease:
, •build up of plaque in arteries of leg and arms
•cramping in calves=intermittent claudication
-hypertension
career opportunities in wellness and fitness - correct answer-personal trainer
group exercise leader
fitness director
operations or facility manager
club manager
general manager
careers in research and exercise science - correct answer-exercise physiology
clinical exercise physiology
athletic training and sports medicine
exercise and sport nutrition
exercise and sport psychology
motor control
clinical and biomechanics
clinical exercise physiologist - correct answer-•Uses physical activity and exercuse to
prevent or delay the onset of chronic disease in healthy individuals
•provides therapeutic or functional benefits to individuals with disease conditions or physical
disabilities
•requires an understanding of how the body responds to acute and chronic physical activity
and exercise on both healthy and diseased conditions
difference between field test and laboratory test - correct answer-field test: takes place in
real life setting which is uncontrolled
example: 1 mile run
laboratory test: takes place in a controlled setting like indoors
example: vo2 max
distinct types of muscle tissues - correct answer-skeletal
cardiac
smooth
electrocardiogram - correct answer-record of the electrical activity of the heart
electromyography - correct answer-procedure for measuring the electrical activity of a
muscle
energy intake and expenditures - correct answer-psychological state
socioeconomic status
genetic profile
physical living and work environment
availability and selectyof macronutrient intake
physical activity and exercise patterns
