39
Which of these is a concern during the ball crunch exercise?
Tilting the chin up toward the ceiling
40
How do we define agility in training?
Agility is the capacity to accelerate, decelerate/stabilize, and change direction
41
Reciprocal inhibition is:
A muscle's contraction is accompanied by its agonist's relaxation
42
Which SAQ drill is most appropriate for seniors?
Hurdle Step-Overs with various-sized cones
43
What should a client do if there is tingling felt in the arm during an active upper trap/scalene stretch?
Decrease the range of motion and ensure a neutral head position
44
Which is the best description of altered reciprocal inhibition?
Tight agonist muscles impede their antagonist muscle, causing muscular inhibition
45
A workout with 45 second bursts of near max effort and the 3 minutes rest and repeat is an example of what training type?
Interval training
46
Which is not true regarding the benefits of SAQ training with older adults?
It promotes the progression of sarcopenia
47
How does the OPT model use active-isolated stretches?
They can be part of a warm-up if no postural distortion pattern is present
48
In what plane does the lateral tube walking dynamic stretch occur in?
Frontal
49
How can a fitness professional prevent clients from overtraining?
Ensuring the appropriate rest periods between training sessions
50
Which is not a stage of general adaptation syndrome?
Recovery
51
What does FITTE stand for?

54
How does the OPT model use active flexibility?
Active flexibility is used within Phases 2, 3, and 4 to improve soft tissue's extensibility and neuromuscular efficiency
55
How does the OPT model use mechanical specificity?
Mechanical specificity is used to determine the weight and the reps used in relation to the goals
