Q

Time

A

The duration an individual is engaged in a given activity.

20
Q

For a mode of exercise to be considered aerobic, it should

A

(a) be rhythmic,
(b) use large muscle groups
(c) be continuous in nature.

21
Q

Some examples of modes of aerobic exercise include the following:

)

A

Jogging

Walking

Exercising on cardio equipment

Swimming

Cycling (indoors or outdoors

22
Q

Type

.

A

The mode of physical activity in which an individual is engaged

23
Q

Overtraining

A

Excessive frequency, volume, or intensity of training, resulting in reduction of performance, which is also caused by a lack of proper rest and recovery.

24
Q

High-intensity interval training (HIIT)

A

An exercise training method defined by intervals of near-maximal intensity broken up by relatively short rest periods.

25
Q

Steady-state (SS) aerobic exercise

A

Aerobic exercise that remains at a relatively constant intensity, including a stable heart rate and oxygen consumption.

26
Q

Enjoyment

.

A

The amount of pleasure derived from performing a physical activity

27
Q

Volume

A

The total amount of work performed in each timeframe, typically 1 week.

28
Q

Nonexercise activity thermogenesis (NEAT)

A

Energy expenditure through daily activities outside of structured exercise, such as walking, completing household chores, and taking the stairs.

29
Q

Progression

A

The way an exercise program advances in intensity and/or volume to continually challenge the individual.

30
Q

What term is used to describe the point during graded exercise in which there is a switch from predominantly aerobic energy production to anaerobic energy production?

A

Ventilatory threshold (Tvent)

31
Q

Each exercise training session should also include the following phases:

A

Warm-up phase

Conditioning phase

Cool-down phase

32
Q

General warm-up

A

Low-intensity exercise consisting of movements that do not necessarily relate to the more intense exercise immediately following.

33
Q

Specific warm-up

A

Low-intensity exercise consisting of movements that mimic those to be included in the more intense exercise immediately following.

34
Q

NASM recommends the cardiorespiratory portion of a warm-up be performed at a low-to-moderate intensity and last for how long?

A

Between 5 and 10 minutes

35
Q

Principle of specificity

A

A principle stating that the body will adapt to the specific demands that are placed on it; also known as the Specific Adaptations to Imposed Demands (SAID) principle.

36
Q

Which stage(s) aremost appropriate and effectivefor improving health and wellness, as well as promoting a healthy body weight for most weight-loss clients and those new to exercise?

A

1 and 2

37
Q

What does the termmidpointrefer to?

A

The intensity level halfway between VT1 and VT2

38
Q

Common postural deviations that clients may exhibit while engaging in cardiorespiratory training include the following:

A

Forward head and rounded shoulders

Anterior pelvic tilt

Adducted and internally rotated knees and pronated feet

39
Q

Ventilation

.

A

Process by which oxygen is transferred to the muscles from the lungs

40
Q

Inspiration

A

The process of contracting the inspiratory muscles to move air into the body.

41
Q

TRUE OR FALSE? The forward rounding of the shoulders theoretically limits the ability to lift the ribcage during ventilation and forcefully contract the diaphragm during inspiration.

A

True

42
Q

Which of the following is a predictive factor for knee injury?

A

Knee valgus

43
Q

Core stability

A

The ability of an individual to maintain a given position, adequately stabilizing the spine while the extremities are moving.

44
Q

Core endurance

.

A

The ability to control the motion of the spine over a given longer duration

45
Q

Core strength

A

The ability to control the motion of the spine.
