Name three primary options available for the endurance component of an aquatic
workout.
1. Cardiorespiratory Endurance Training
2. Muscular Fitness Training
3. Muscular Flexibility and ROM Training

Max HR-the highest HR a person can achieve and is measured with a max HR test or
estimated with 220 minus your age.
HR Reserve-your minimal HR minus your resting HR
How does compression lower your Heart Rate in the water?
The water compresses all body systems, including the vascular system, causing a
smaller venous load to the heart, reducing HR.

What is the motor neuron?
nerve cell that innervates muscle fibers to move
Name the 11 systems of the body
,integumentary, skeletal, muscular, nervous, endocrine, cardiovascular, lymphatic,
respiratory, digestive, urinary, reproductive
6 anatomical reference terms relating to exercise
superior/inferior
anterior/posterior
lateral/medial
3 types of muscle tissues in the body

ossification
_______________ is moving away from the mid-line of the body
Abduction
flexion and extension are performed primarily in the _________________ plane.
Sagittal

effort/fulcrum/resistance
What type of joint is the elbow
hinge
3 natural curves in the spine
cervical/thoracic/lumbar
In deep water, you primary manipulate your center of
buoyancy
6 movement terms used to identify joint actions
flexion/extension
adduction/abduction
elevation/depression
protraction/retraction
pronation/supination
inversion/eversion
medial/lateral rotation
circumduction
tilt
describe the anatomical postion
The body is erect or laying supine as if erect. Arms by the side, palms facing forward,
legs together, and feet forward. Joints are neutral except for the forearms, which are
supinated.
The shoulder girdle is comprised of?
clavicles/scapulae
Scoliosis refers to a __________bending of the spine
lateral
___________ states that you train only that part of the system or body which is
overloaded.
Specificity
name 3 muscles pairs in the body
Biceps/triceps
hip abd/hip add
,quadriceps/hamstrings
anterior/posterior deltoid
Which metabolic system yields the highest amount of ATP for the working
muscle?
Oxidative system
Protein is broken down into ______________
amino acid
Define the all-or-none principle
All of the muscle fibers in a motor unit contract or none contract
Which type of muscle tissue is best suited for endurance activities
slow twitch
Concentric and eccentric muscle actions are part of _______ muscle movement
isotonic
When initialing exercise the time of inadequate oxygen supply is called
__________
oxygen deficit
There is a given overload that must be exceeded in order to see improvement in
fitness as
threshold of training
Name 3 types of muscle actions that skeletal muscle can generate
isotonic/isometric/isokinetic
How is radiation from convection in heat dissipation?
Radiation is heat loss
Convection is transfer of heat through movement of liquid or gas between areas of
different temperature
What are possible problem associated with performing verticle exercise in water
under 80 degree F
Physiological responses will be altered; take longer to warm up; participants might chill;
With reduced blood flow to the extremities, there is greater chance for musculoskeletal
injuries.
Ideal tempt range for aqua fitness
83-86
depth range for shallow aquatic fitness
mid rib cage or armpit
3-5 feet
Primary irritation in chlorinated pool
chloramines
A participant cannot dissipate heat by sweating in the pool while exercising (T or
F)
False. In the water the body dissipates heats through peripheral vasodilation (radiation)
and sweat.
The physiological responses to water immersion are effected by: body
composition, intensity of exercise; age; gender; and disease (True or False)
True
Benefits of wearing aqua shoes
, 1. protection on soles of feet
2. traction

5. safety entering and exiting pool
By adding the element of travel in aquatic choreography, you are increasing
intensity using which law?
inertia
What is the difference between linear and rotational movement?
Linear is movement of the entire body forward/backward or left/right
Rotational is motion at a joint
Friction between the molecules of a liquid or gas is referred to as
viscosity
Which is more intense wide jog traveling forward or wide jog traveling sideways?
Wide jog traveling forward
increasing speed in the water reduces range of motion (T or F)
T
moving arms forward while forward jogging decrease or increase intensity
increase
sink or float if you weigh more than the water you displace?
sink
What is the primary force that causes resistance in the aquatic environment
water viscosity and drag
Incorporating impeding or assisting arms movements applies physical law to
alter exercise intensity in water?
action and reaction
Two important factors to consider when applying the inertia in aquatic exercise
programing
1. participant fitness skill and level
2. acoustics of pool environment (if participants cannot understand hear the verbal
cues).
