Answer 6

Morbidity

Question 7

A state or a risk of death or dying.

Answer 8

Moderate-intensity

Question 9

The number of training sessions in a given timeframe.

Answer 9

Frequency

Question 10

The level of demand placed on the body by a given activity.

Target heart rate

Question 14

An aerobic test that measures the participant’s ability to talk or hold a conversation during an activity at various intensity levels.

Answer 14

Talk test

Question 15

The point during graded exercise in which ventilation increases disproportionately to oxygen uptake, signifying a switch from predominately aerobic energy production to anaerobic energy production.

Answer 15

Ventilatory threshold (Tvent)

Answer 17

Time

Question 18

The mode of physical activity in which an individual is engaged.

Answer 18

Type

Question 19

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

Answer 19

Overtraining

Question 20

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

Answer 25

Progression

Question 26

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

Answer 26

General warm-up
