week be how many times per week - ANSWER Resistance training should be employed 2 times a week
for all major movements. For hypertrophy, should be done 3-5 times/week. To maintain adequate
muscular fitness over time, do 10 sets per body part per week
Baseline health maintenance requires physical activity of 1,000 kcals per week (150per day), but for
fitness protection it increases to - ANSWER 2,000 kcals/week or 300 per day
What performance related component of fitness is key for aging - ANSWER muscular power
,Routine moderate intensity jogging will have what effect on someones lipid blood profile - ANSWER HDL
will increased, LDL will decrease
What would have the greatest impact on health for a person who is overweight and inactive - ANSWER
adding daily physical activity
What is the correct movement of the glenohumeral joint (ball and socket, shoulder) during a tricep push
down - ANSWER No joint movement- this joint should not move during arm exercises, since the elbow is
a hinge joint, any movement of the shoulder would negate the focus from triceps

ANSWER Rectus femoris- quadriceps are 4 muscles, but RF is only one that crosses two joints (hip and
knee)
what describes the natural curvature of the cervical and lumbar spine (CTLS) - ANSWER Lordotic curve
(cervical and lumbar, inward), kyphotic curve (thoracic, outward)
What are the rotator cuff (back of shoulder) muscles? - ANSWER Teres minor, infraspinatus,
supraspinatus, subscapularis (TISS)
What muscles are responsible for the first 30 degrees of trunk flexion during a crunch - ANSWER rectus
abdominus - beyond 30 degrees results in hip flexor activation
when hip and knee are fully flexed, like in a bulgarian split squat, what hip extensor is the prime mover -
ANSWER gluteus maximus - quadriceps and glutes are main muscles in hip and knee extensions during
single leg squats
What is the agonist during an RDL - ANSWER Agonist- hamstrings, antagonist- quads
During the descent phase of the standing barbell curl, biceps contract how - ANSWER eccentrically
(lengthening), concentric is shortening or contracting, isometric is no joint movement
, Prime mover of dumbbell side raise exercise is - ANSWER Deltoid (common shoulder muscle that
rounds), responsible for shoulder abduction above 30 degrees, prime mover for lateral raise
retraction of the scapula during the seated row is causes by - ANSWER concentric contraction of the
rhomboids (back muscle right below neck), function to move scapulae (shoulder blades) inward, making
squeezing sensation in upper back when properly activated
Majority of back injuries from incorrect lifting occur between which segments of the spine - ANSWER
Lumbar and sacrum- low back experience move injuries bc it has greatest capacity for movement
What refers to a spatial familiarity from improvements in the nervous system - ANSWER proprioception-
neural signaling to control movement, important for balance and voluntary movement control
The deltoid (shoulder muscle) becomes the primary abductor of the humerus (upper arm bone)
beginning at what joint angle, reducing involvement of the rotator cuff - ANSWER 30 degrees, if arms are
lowered beyond this it will activate the rotator cuff
Forward lunge with forward cable press occurs in what plane - ANSWER Sagittal plane- forward and
backward movements
Transverse- rotational movement
Axillary and midline- horizontal
Frontal- abduction and adduction
What muscles can cause movement of frontal plane (abduction/adduction) - ANSWER Tensor fascia latae
(top of thigh and hip muscle)
Quadratus lumborum (muffin top muscles)
Supraspinatus (back of shoulder)
How should client modify forward lunge To avoid tibial translation (knee crossing over toe) - ANSWER
take broader step and push back leg down - forward and back lunges are controlled by back leg
positioning
