CHI TEST QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Cardiorespiratory fitness - Answer -how well your body is able to take in o2 and use it
in ATP regenration
ice cream - Answer -contains high fat content which holds 9 calories/gram
blood glucose - Answer -this storage site for glucose is tightly regulated as it supplies
fuel for the brain
cardiac output - Answer -heart rate x stroke volume
overloading - Answer -if you use the same amount of weight for an entire year, without
increasing weight, you are violating this resistance training principle
satellite cells - Answer -activated for recovery of muscle from resistance training.
replaced damaged muscle tissue. muscle stem cells
type 2 fibers - Answer -muscle fibers that are responsible for strength and power (not
resistant to fatigue though)
eccentric - Answer -this type of muscle contraction is known to elicit more muscle
damage. it is lengthening the msucle rather than shortening it. this is why running
downhill causes more soreness
machine weights - Answer -this type of weight training is ideal for novices, safe and
focuses on one muscle group but not specific to how we move in everyday life--strength
gains are not always seen when doing everyday activities.
slow and long reps, with focus on weight load - Answer -to maximize strength gains,
perform resistance exercise with
reduce weight, but do reps over and over - Answer -to maximize endurance
reduce weight, but go as fast as u can - Answer -to maximize power
increased motor unit recruitment - Answer -John notices he is becoming stronger but
does not see an increase in muscle size. what is responsible for increased strength
during his initial training weeks?
physical activity - Answer -any bodily movmenet produced by the skeletal muscles that
require energy
sprint interval is more time efficient - Answer -main advantage that spring interval
training has over continous endurance training
, 60% of HR max - Answer -if you are currently inactive or deconditioned, it is generally
advised that you perform your cardio exercise at what HR intensity?
percentage of heart rate max. - Answer -in terms of exercise intensity, this method is
the most objective and accurate, while still being accesible to most
It's impossible to maintain a sprint for anything over a few minutes as you will fatigue do
to having to rely on aerobic metabolism and running low on your existing ATP and
Phosphocreatine levels. - Answer -You decide to go out for a run with a friend around
grounds and you decide to run for about 40 minutes. Upon beginning the run your friend
breaks out into a sprint! What rational below would lead you to run at a comfortable
steady pace and not follow your overzealous friend?
Type I fibers are more fatigue resistant, so according to the size principle these fibers
are the first to be called upon to lift weight. So, such you don't need a heavy load to
activate them. - Answer -Why would you suggest lighter weight and more repetitions?
The higher the intensity, the farther away from your body's homeostatic levels. This
means your body will expend more calories for a longer period of time to get things back
to normal. - Answer -Some data indicate that the higher the intensity of the exercise
bout the longer this EPOC (excess post oxygen consumption) period will be. What could
account for these results?
Increased muscle size, but not comparable to a male as she does not have testosterone
in high enough levels to increase muscularity to a great extent - Answer -5 months. She
is gaining confidence in her abilities and she is gaining strength, as she is able to lift a
bit more weight every time she enters the gym. At this point what would be the cause of
her strength gains?
Increased heart muscle strength and therefore stroke volume
Increased red blood cell count
Increased blood volume - Answer -After cardiovascular training for a period of three
months, Joe notices that his resting heart rate value is lower. What would account for
this change?
In the muscle repair process is a calorically costly endeavor, so adequate caloric intake
needs to be on board to provide the energy for this work. Additionally, quality protein
sources need to be available to provide the building blocks for muscle tissue repair. -
Answer -an explanation for needing adequate protein intake and adequate caloric intake
in order to achieve peak strength gains?
true - Answer -Your friend tells you that while lactic acid is produced from glucose
metabolism at high exercise intensities, we clear that lactic acid in about a few minutes.
