Flexibility and Aerobic Capacity

What does the term "Aerobic Capacity" refer to in physical education?

• The maximum heart rate achievable by an individual

• The ability of the body to inspire, transport, and utilize oxygen during sustained periods of aerobic activity

• The total amount of energy produced by anaerobic activity

• The speed at which an individual can run a certain distance

What is VO2 Max?

• The threshold of lactic acid buildup in muscles

• The average oxygen consumption during a typical workout

• The maximum volume of oxygen inspired, transported, and utilized per minute during exhaustive exercise

• The minimum oxygen level required to sustain aerobic respiration

What type of flexibility involves the performer moving the joint through a full range of motion, controlling both the start and finish of the stretch?

• Static Active

• Isometric

• Dynamic

• Ballistic

Which type of flexibility is characterized by using assistance to move the joint into a stretched position beyond the point of resistance?

• Static Passive

• Static Active

• PNF

• Dynamic

In which type of flexibility does the performer themselves move the joint into a stretched position by contracting the agonist muscle?

• Isometric

• Static Active

• Ballistic

• Dynamic

What is a potential risk associated with Ballistic flexibility?

• Increased elasticity

• Reduced risk of injury

• Risk of injury

• Improved posture

What adaptation from flexibility training results in increased distance and efficiency for muscles to create force at speed?

• Increased resting length

• Reduced stretch reflex stimulus

• Increased elasticity

• Improved posture and alignment

What does the Karvonen Principle take into account to determine the correct heart rate (HR) for exercise?

• Age and weight

• Age and resting HR

• Weight and height

• Resting HR and height

According to the Karvonen Principle, how is the Maximum Heart Rate (HR) calculated?

• Maximum HR = 200 - Age

• Maximum HR = 220 + Age

• Maximum HR = 220 - Age

• Maximum HR = 210 - Age

What formula represents the Heart Rate Range according to the Karvonen Principle?

• Heart Rate Range = Maximum HR + Resting HR

• Heart Rate Range = Maximum HR / Resting HR

• Heart Rate Range = Maximum HR - Resting HR

• Heart Rate Range = Resting HR - Maximum HR
