Energy producing system within the muscles that requires oxygen is called

• Aerobic

• Anaerobic

• Musculoskeletal

• Ligamentary

Energy producing system within the muscles that does NOT require oxygen is called

• Aerobic

• Anaerobic

• Musculoskeletal

• Ligumentary

Which energy producing system in the muscles is more powerful for quick, short bursts of energy?

• Aerobic

• Anaerobic

Which energy producing system in the muscles allows for less powerful but longer term activities?

• Aerobic

• Anaerobic

Which energy producing system in the muscles requires oxygen to function?

• Aerobic

• Anaerobic

Which energy producing system is utilized during cardiorespiratory endurance training?

• Aerobic

• Anaerobic

Cardiorespiratory endurance training has which of the following benefits? (Select all that apply)

• Lungs are able to inhale a greater amount of oxygen with each breath due to stronger diaphragm muscle

• Heart becomes stronger and able to pump more blood with each beat

• Increased number of capillaries around lungs and muscles leads to more efficient oxygen delivery and utilization

• Increased number of red blood cells for more efficient delivery of oxygen to muscle cells

• Able to perform activities longer without getting tired

Which of the following activities would NOT help improve cardiorespiratory endurance?

• Static stretching

• Jogging

• Swimming

• Bicycling

What is the recommended frequency, intensity, and time to improve cardiorespiratory endurance?

• 3-5 days/week, 51-65% max heart rate, 45 minutes/workout

• 3-5 days/week, 51-65% max heart rate, 60 minutes/ workout

• 5-7 days/week, 51-65% max heart rate, 45 minutes/workout

• 5-7 days/week, 66-85% max heart rate, 60+ minutes/workout

Cardiorespiratory endurance training benefits your overall health in all of the following ways EXCEPT

• Reducing the risks for chronic diseases like heart disease and Type 2 diabetes

• Burning excess calories instead of storing extra calories as fat

• Reduces the energy producing capabilities of the muscles

• Allows you to participate in activities for longer periods of time without needing to take breaks
