ITF International Instructor Test - Theory of Power 2/10

According to the theory of kinetic energy, every object increases its weight as well as speed in a:

• Horizontal movement

• Downward movement

• Lateral movement

• Rotating movement

"Concentration" means:

• To mobilize every muscle of the body onto the smallest target area

• To have mental concentration on the target

• To focus the mind in one place at one time

• To keep your eyes on the target

Which of these is NOT one of the Theory of Power characteristics?

• Strength

• Reaction force

• Equilibrium

• Concentration

Scientifically, force is:

• Mass x acceleration

• Mass x speed

• Power x speed

• Mass x Power

According to Newton's third law, every action has:

• An equal and opposite reaction

• A backward motion

• A sinewave

• An unstoppable motion

The main way to utilize mass in movements is through:

• Hip movement laterally and vertically

• Tensing the abdomen

• Raising the centre of gravity

• Moving as fast as you can

Equilibrium is classified into two types:

• Internal and external

• Fast and slow

• Balance and stability

• Dynamic and static

The Theory of Power is:

• Normally taught only to power breakers

• An advanced concept taught only to instructors

• Too complex to be properly understood

• One of the "Training Secrets" of Taekwon-Do

Stopping the breath with a short exhalation at the moment of impact helps to:

• Tense the abdomen

• Scare the opponent

• Increase the speed of the movement

• Focus your mind

Which of these is considered the most essential factor for power?

• Mass

• Balance

• Speed

• Sinwave
