Front

What is the recommended ratio of carbohydrates to protein for optimal post-workout recovery?

Back

2:1 ratio

Front

Which wave represents ventricular repolarization?

Back

T Wave

Front

What is the equation for calculating Body Mass Index (BMI)?

Back

Weight(kg) divided by height(m²)

Front

What happens to maximum oxygen consumption (VO2 max) at altitude?

Back

Decreases

Front

What is the recommended daily protein intake for athletes engaged in high-intensity training?

Back

1.2-2.0 g/kg of body weight

Front

Define carbohydrates and their role in post-workout recovery.

Back

Carbohydrates are macronutrients that provide energy; they help replenish glycogen stores after exercise.

Front

Explain the significance of the T Wave in an ECG.

Back

The T Wave represents the repolarization of the ventricles, indicating the heart's recovery phase.

Front

What does BMI stand for and why is it important?

Back

BMI stands for Body Mass Index; it is a measure used to assess body weight relative to height.

Front

How does altitude affect physical performance?

Back

At high altitudes, lower oxygen levels can decrease VO2 max, impacting endurance and performance.

Front

What are the consequences of inadequate protein intake for athletes?

Back

Inadequate protein can lead to muscle loss, decreased recovery, and impaired performance.
