Muscular strength and Endurance

What are muscle fibers made up of?

• Proteins

• Bundles

• Myofibril

• Hypertrophy

How often should you exercise each muscle group?

• 7 days a week

• 2-3 days a week

• once a week

• every other week

What are muscles connected to opposing bones by?

• muscle fibers

• slow twitch

• tendons

• fast twitch

What is the process of your muscle size decreasing due to lack of muscular exercise?

• atrophy

• hypertrophy

• contraction

• fatigue

What percentage of your 1RM should you be using?

• %50

• %100

• %30

• %70

static exercises:

• involve a muscle contraction with change in the length of the muscle

• involve a muscle contraction without a change in the length of a muscle

• provide greater gains in muscle development

• have a greater carry-over to daily activities

Fast twitch muscle fibers...

• are characterized a less rapid and less forceful contraction

• fatigue quickly

• hold a contraction

• are fatigue resistant

when doing muscular exercises you should

• warm up and cool down

• use proper lifting techniques

• use spotters when necessary

• all of the above

Dynamic exercises...

• are especially useful for rehab

• are helpful but limited

• involve a muscle contraction without a change in the length of the muscle

• provide greater gains in muscular development

How many different exercises should focus on all major muscle groups?

• 1-2

• 5-6

• 10-12

• 8-10
