Comprehensive Questions A+ Graded Answers | 100% Pass

The initial assessment with a new client reveals that her waist circumference is 35 inches and her hip
circumference is 34 inches. Which of the following statements about these measurements is MOST
accurate? - ✔✔She is at risk for health problems due to excess abdominal fat.



During the initial interview, a new client claims, "I want to lose 15 lb. (6.8 kg) in the next month for my
high school reunion." Which of the following responses would be MOST appropriate? - ✔✔Acknowledge
her enthusiasm and help her develop more realistic goals and a series of achievable steps to work
toward them.



Larry is a client with whom you have been working for the past three months. During that time, he has
cancelled or failed to show up for approximately 20% of scheduled workout sessions with you. Recently,
Larry's work commitments have increased and he informs you that he will not be exercising until his
work load decreases. In which stage of the transtheoretical model of behavioral change would Larry
CURRENTLY be categorized? - ✔✔Contemplation

-Larry has relapsed to being physically inactive due to his work commitments, and has regressed to this
stage of change. Individuals in the contemplation stage weigh the costs and benefits of lifestyle
modification and are often ambivalent about changing. Individuals can remain in this stage for months
or years, alternating between approaching readiness to make an effort at change and distancing
themselves from it. Larry will have to decide to initiate a new exercise program before he can move back
to the preparation stage and eventually to the action and maintenance stages.



What is a diabetic client MOST likely to experience if he or she takes too much insulin prior to an
exercise session? - ✔✔Hypoglycemia

-Insulin causes glucose to move from the circulatory system into the working cells. Exercise has an
insulin-like effect, resulting in increased glucose uptake by the cells as well. Therefore, if a client takes
too much insulin prior to exercise, the client would have two factors (insulin and exercise) that would be
facilitating increased glucose uptake by the cells. This will cause a drop in blood glucose, potentially
leading to low blood glucose, or hypoglycemia.



When performing initial cardiorespiratory fitness assessments with a client who is taking a beta blocker,
which of the following medication-related effects SHOULD be expected? - ✔✔Decreased exercise heart
rate and decreased resting heart rate

, beta-adrenergic blocking agents, or beta blockers, cause - ✔✔both a decreased exercise heart rate and a
decreased resting heart rate.



At your request, a client visits his physician regarding recurrent leg pain. The physician diagnoses him
with sciatica and instructs him to complete physical therapy for his problem. Which muscle is MOST
commonly involved with sciatica due to its location relative to the sciatic nerve? - ✔✔Piriformis

-Tightness or spasm in the deep lateral rotators of the hip, particularly the piriformis, can lead to hip and
leg pain, since the sciatic nerve often passes through or just inferior to the piriformis and can become
irritated by a spasm in the piriformis.



The "talk test" would be LEAST appropriate for which of the following clients? - ✔✔A marathon runner
trying to qualify for the Boston Marathon

-because they have specific training time spent below VT1, from VT1 to below VT2, and VT2 and above;
or Zones 1, 2, and 3



Postural screening conducted with a new client reveals that he has an exaggerated posterior curve in his
thoracic spine and forward, rounded shoulders, with the backs of his hands facing forward. Which of the
following sets of muscles and muscle groups should be the PRIMARY focus of a flexibility program
designed to address this client's postural deviations? - ✔✔Shoulder adductors and serratus anterior



kyphosis posture is associated with tight - ✔✔shoulder adductors (pectoralis major) and tight scapular
abductors (serratus anterior) which pull the scapular into protraction.



A new client tells you that he has been jogging 3-4 days per week for the past six weeks following a
program from a popular health magazine. He has worked his way up to jogging 30 continuous minutes
at an intensity of 70% of his predicted maximal HR, which he calculated by subtracting his age from 220.
As you design a new program for him, what method for monitoring cardiorespiratory exercise intensity
should be used to provide the MOST individualized training program? - ✔✔Programming above/below
HR at VT1 determined via the submaximal talk test for VT1



A new client wants to lose weight and body fat, and agrees to have his body composition assessed
during the initial session. He currently weighs 220 lb (100 kg) with 25% body fat (BF%). He wants to
decrease his body-fat level to 15%. If he maintains his current lean body weight (LBW), what will his new
weight be when he reaches his goal of 15% body fat? - ✔✔194 lb

-Step 1: 100% - Fat % = Lean body %
