NSCA - CSCS - Chapter 2 Question and
answers already passed
acceleration - correct answer ✔the change in velocity per unit time


agonist - correct answer ✔also called the prime mover. The muscle most
directly involved in bringing about a movement


anatomical position - correct answer ✔the body is erect, the arms are down
at the sides, and the palms face forward


angle of pennation - correct answer ✔angle between the muscle fibers and
an imaginary line between the muscle's origin and insertion; 0° corresponds to
no pennation


angular displacement - correct answer ✔the angle through which an object
rotates, for which the SI unit is the radian


angular velocity - correct answer ✔the object's rotational speed, measured in
radians per second


antagonist - correct answer ✔a muscle that can slow down or stop the
movement


biomechanics - correct answer ✔the mechanisms through which the
musculoskeletal components interact to create movement

, bracketing technique - correct answer ✔a form of acceleration training in
which the athlete performs the sport movement with less than normal and
greater than normal resistance


cartilaginous joint - correct answer ✔a slightly movable joint in which
cartilage unites bony surfaces


classic formula - correct answer ✔the load lifted divided by body weight to
the two-thirds power


concentric muscle action - correct answer ✔a muscle action in which the
muscle shortens because the contractile force is greater than the resistive
force. The forces are generated within the muscle and acting to shorten it are
greater than the external forces acting as its tendons to stretch it


distal - correct answer ✔away from the center of the body


dorsal - correct answer ✔toward the posterior of the body


eccentric muscle action - correct answer ✔a muscle action in which the
muscle lengthens because the contractile for is less than the resistive force.
The forces generated within the muscle and acting to shorten it are less than
the external forces acting as its tendons to stretch it

tissues that connects a muscle with its bony attachment


first-class lever - correct answer ✔a lever for which the muscle force ad
resistive force act on opposite sides of the fulcrum
