Which of the following is considered the gold standard measurement for cardiorespiratory fitness?
VO2max
What are the recommended training variables for static stretching?
1 to 3 sets, hold each stretch for 30 seconds
This term describes an unstable-but-controlled environment used to improve someone’s static, semi-dynamic, and dynamic balance.
Proprioceptively enriched
Which of the following best defines the base of support of the body?
The area beneath a person that consists of all points of contact between the body and the support surface
What are the recommended training variables for active stretching?
1 to 3 sets, hold each stretch for 1 to 2 seconds, and repeat for 5 to 10 repetitions
Stage 3 balance exercise should include what types of motion?
Stage 3 balance exercise should include what types of motion?
Which of the following should be considered when determining if a client is ready to undertake plyometric training?
Injury history
If forward head posture is permitted during the drawing-in maneuver, what muscle may be preferentially activated, leading to poor muscle balance throughout the spine?
Sternocleidomastoid
Which of the fundamental movement patterns is a lower-body compound exercise?
Squatting
What does the standing dumbbell lateral raise primarily target?
Middle deltoid
Which of the following defines the general goal or outcome of training in zone 1?
Develop an appropriate aerobic base
What is a progression for the box jump-down with stabilization?
Multiplanar jump with stabilization
Which of the following is not a skill-related concept that would enhance core training?
Quickness
Which of the following is characterized as a local muscle of the core?
Transverse abdominis

What is defined as the ability to produce and maintain force production for prolonged periods of time?
Muscular endurance
Which sense provides information about movement of the head in space?
Vestibular system
Why does a shorter amortization phase lead to more effective plyometric movement?
It causes stored elastic energy to be used more efficiently.
