A client is currently training in the Hypertrophy Phase of the OPT model. Which phase
of the flexibility continuum would be the most appropriate?
a. Dynamic
b. Active
c. Functional
d. Corrective - ANSWER-Active
A client is placing pressure on his calf musculature using a foam roll. Which of the
following stretching techniques is the client using?
a. Dynamic stretching
b. Static stretching
c. Self-myofascial release
d. Active-isolated stretching
Feedback - ANSWER-Self-myofascial release
A client reports acute soreness and tightness in her calf muscle after a long run. She
describes feeling knots in the muscle. Which of the following flexibility techniques
should the client use first?
A) Self-myofascial release
B) Dynamic stretching
C) Static stretching
D) Active-isolated stretching - ANSWER-Self-myofascial release
A client reports acute soreness and tightness in her calf muscle after a long run. She
describes feeling knots in the muscle. Which of the following flexibility techniques
should the client use first?
Select one:
a. Dynamic stretching
b. Self-myofascial release
c. Active-isolated stretching
d. Static stretching - ANSWER-Self-myofascial release
Active flexibility - ANSWER-Designed to improve the extensibility of soft tissue and
increase neuromuscular efficiency by using reciprocal inhibition
Type of stretching: Self-myofascial release, (active isolated)
Examples: Foam roll, active adductor stretch
Active-isolated stretch - ANSWER-The process of using agonists and synergists to
dynamically move the joint into a range of motion
, Alan is utilizing self-myofascial release for his corrective flexibility protocols. Where
should the foam roll be placed for the latissimus dorsi?
A) Between the shoulder blades
B) Under the arm
C) At the thoracic spine
D) On the low back - ANSWER-Under the arm
Altered reciprocal inhibition - ANSWER-The concept of muscle inhibition, caused by a
tight agonist, which inhibits it's functional antagonist
Arthrokinematics - ANSWER-The motions of joints in the body
Arthrokinetic dysfuntion - ANSWER-Altered forces at the joint that result in abnormal
muscular activity and impaired neuromuscular communication at the joint
Autogenic inhibition - ANSWER-The process when neural impulses that sense tension
is greater than the impulses that cause muscles to contract, providing an inhibitory
effect to the muscle spindles
Contracting the glutes while performing a static standing TFL stretch will cause which of
the following effects?
a. Autogenic inhibition of the TFL
b. Relative flexibility of the TFL
c. Synergistic dominance of the TFL
d. Reciprocal inhibition of the TFL - ANSWER-Reciprocal inhibition of the TFL
Corrective flexibility - ANSWER-Designed to improve muscle imbalances and altered
joint motion
Type of stretching: Self-myofascial release, (static)
Examples: Foam roller, static adductor stretch
Daniel is foam-rolling the piriformis after a workout. Which of the following steps should
he take when he encounters a tender spot?
a. Perform a large rolling motion across the spot.
b. Hold the spot for 30 seconds.
c. Roll away from the tender spot.
d. Oscillate on the tender spot. - ANSWER-Hold the spot for 30 seconds
Davi's Law - ANSWER-States that soft tissue models along the lines of stress
During a 40-yard dash, the hamstring complex begins to do most of the work for a
weakened gluteus maximus. Which of the following best describes this action?
a. Length-tension relationships
b. Arthrokinematic dysfunction
c. Force-couple relationships
d. Synergistic dominance - ANSWER-Synergistic dominance
