NASM: Stretching and Flexibility
Certification Exam Questions With
100%Verified SolutionsA+GRADED
Integrated Stretching - correct answer...✔✔Self-myofascial techniques combined with
assisted and self-stretching techniques.

Fascia - correct answer...✔✔Connective tissue that surrounds muscles and bones.

True or False: Stretching can directly influence hydration. - correct answer...✔✔True

Regional Interdependence (RI) Model - correct answer...✔✔Assessment and
intervention model used by clinicians based on the concept that the site of a patient's
primary complaint or symptoms is affected by dysfunction in remote musculoskeletal
regions.

Neurophysiological System - correct answer...✔✔A physiological system dealing with
the functioning of the nervous system.

Somatovisceral System - correct answer...✔✔The part of the sensory system that
responds to changes in internal body systems and organs.

Myofascia - correct answer...✔✔The functional combination of both muscle and
connective tissues.

Structural Efficiency - correct answer...✔✔The alignment of each segment of the
human movement system, which allows posture to be balanced in relation to a person's
center of gravity.

Fascial System - correct answer...✔✔A three-dimensional continuum of soft, collagen-
containing, loose, and dense fibrous connective tissues that permeate the body
providing functional structure and environment.

Functional Efficiency - correct answer...✔✔The ability of the neuromuscular system to
recruit correct muscle synergies, at the right time, with the appropriate amount of force
to perform functional tasks with the least amount of energy and stress on the human
movement system (HMS).

Fascial System Model - correct answer...✔✔The model of human movement that
considers the interconnectivity and interaction of the fascial system throughout the
body.



AGRADESOLUTIONS

,Fascial Nets - correct answer...✔✔The concept of the myofascial tensional network
that describes the interconnectedness of specific chains of muscle and fascia located in
different parts of the body as they relate to functional movement patterns.

Super Compensation Hydration Phenomenon - correct answer...✔✔The effect on
tissue after tissue has been allowed to rest after stretch or compression; more fluid
rushes back into the tissues than was observed pre-stretch

Bound Water - correct answer...✔✔Water forming in liquid crystalline structured
patterns; Bound water has special molecular properties that enable it to perform many
crucial functions, including providing greater viscosity for the viscoelastic properties of
fasciae. This property greatly enhances the flexibility and elasticity of the fascial system

Bulk Water - correct answer...✔✔Polluted water;

What other factors would be affecting a pronated foot-ankle complex, according to the
RI? - correct answer...✔✔A pronated foot-ankle complex is only one part of a
cascading chain of events, resulting in more proximal faulty positions, like with an
internally rotated knee and hip that may anteriorly rotate the pelvis

A truly balanced HMS will have what? - correct answer...✔✔Optimal structural and
functional efficiency with proper alignment of the kinetic chain checkpoints: the
feet/ankles, knees, LPHC, shoulders, and head and neck

True or False: The FS model may be thought of as an extension of the strategies used
in the RI model to include all the various types of connective tissues - correct answer...
✔✔The FS model may be thought of as an extension of the strategies used in the RI
model to include all the various types of connective tissues

What happens when a mechanical load is released? - correct answer...✔✔An influx of
fresh fluids enters to flush out metabolic waste, rehydrate, and bring fresh nutrients to
the area.

Why is it important to have structural efficiency and the alignment of each component of
the human movement system (HMS)? - correct answer...✔✔This enables an individual
to maintain their center of gravity over a constantly changing base of support during all
functional movements.

How does the Fascial System (FS) model add to functional efficiency within the human
movement system (HMS)? - correct answer...✔✔It intertwines the nervous system and
muscular system, creating a mechanically sensitive and responsive communication
network.

Which of the following is the first definition of fascia according to the Fascial Research
Society? - correct answer...✔✔A fascia is a sheath, a sheet, or any other dissectible


AGRADESOLUTIONS

, aggregations of connective tissue that forms beneath the skin to attach, enclose, and
separate muscles and other internal organs.

Which of the following factors are improved with the use of the Fascial System (FS)
model? - correct answer...✔✔Assessments and programs bodywork, physical therapy,
regenerative medicine, fitness, and stretch therapy.

True or False: It is within the scope of practice for a fitness professional to diagnose
and/or render medical treatment - correct answer...✔✔False: Unless the practitioner is
also licensed by their state to diagnose and/or render medical treatment, the fitness
professional is legally prohibited from diagnosing or treating pain or medical conditions
of any kind

What is one of the best ways to both gain a referral network while also promoting your
business? - correct answer...✔✔Invite potential referral sources to receive a free
assisted-stretch session to experience the actual techniques and approaches offered by
a fitness professional

Is gaining consent to touch clients during an assisted stretching session important? -
correct answer...✔✔Yes, incredibly; formally documenting in writing is highly
recommended; the fitness professional should know when, where, and how the hands
will be placed during each individual technique used;

What is essential for a fitness professional to remember if and when a client has an
extreme emotional response (healing crisis) during an assisted stretching session? -
correct answer...✔✔The fitness professional needs to understand that assisted
stretching is not therapy and these responses are not an opportunity for the fitness
professional to attempt to interpret them. Thus, the fitness professional should explain
that the response is normal, on a continuum of potential responses, and that the client
should not feel embarrassed by them

Assisted Stretching is used to do what? - correct answer...✔✔To improve, correct, and
maintain flexibility and mobility, postural alignment, and overall fitness

What terms should a fitness professional refrain from using either verbally or in print
when advertising their services to prevent opening themselves up to legal
