What do we mean by the term neural pathways? Why is it important? - ANSWER
✓ Neural Pathways = Muscle Memory. It's important because you will be training
the total body in a move holistic and functional way.
What are some benefits of increasing a person's range of movement/motion
(ROM)? - ANSWER ✓ Stability, Mobility, Less prone to injury, and better
movement and performance
Name one stick mobility stretch, fix or solution, and describe it - ANSWER ✓
Feet Kneeling: both knees on the floor w/ full hip extension to start
Why is it important to keep clients from getting demotivated? - ANSWER ✓ So
they can continue to workout/exercise
Name one "tool" or strategy that can be used to build attitude training. - ANSWER
✓ Meditation
What is a motor unit? - ANSWER ✓ The nerve and all the muscle fibers that
connects with/or innervated
What is the all or none principle? - ANSWER ✓ Neural Signals causes a
momentary twitch of all fibers in the motor unit.
What is a slow twitch muscle? Fast Twitch Muscle? What types are they each? -
ANSWER ✓ Slow Twitch Muscles Type 1 - Not capable of high intensity
constructions (endurance and posterior muscles)
Fast Twitch Muscles Type 2 - Capable of producing high intensity constructions
, What is the function of a muscle spindle? - ANSWER ✓ They sense stretch and/or
rate of length change in a muscle and causes a contraction
What is Golgi tendon organ? - ANSWER ✓ Once tension is placed on the muscle
for a length of time, the Golgi tendon organ will override the message from the
muscle spindle causing the muscle to relax.
List 4 components of the sliding filament theory - ANSWER ✓ Actin, Myosin,
Tropomyosin (Troponin + Myosin)
What are the 3 types of contractions? Describe how they work w/ force. -
ANSWER ✓ Concentric Action - Force Production
Isometric Action = Stabilization of Force
Eccentric Action = Force Reduction
What is another name for energy systems? - ANSWER ✓ Metabolic Pathways
What are 3 energy systems? - ANSWER ✓ ATP-CP, Glycolysis, Oxidate
Phosphorylation

Slow down aging
Calorie - ANSWER ✓ Amount of energy needed to raise temperature 1 gram of
water 1 degree C
, active stretching - ANSWER ✓ a technique in which muscles are stretched by the
contraction of the opposing muscles example is quad stretch
Calorie is? - ANSWER ✓ Unit of Energy
Two types Diabetis - ANSWER ✓ Type 1 Insulin Dependent
Type 2
Non Insulin Dependent
