the physiological assessment 2

Which of the following factors should be kept consistent between test and retest to ensure reliability?

• Time of day and equipment used

• Participant’s weight and age

• The number of warm-up repetitions performed

• Post-exercise nutrition intake

How can a technician’s experience affect the accuracy of fitness testing?

• Inexperienced technicians may provide more encouragement, improving test results.

• Inconsistent technique can lead to measurement errors.

• Experienced technicians are more likely to show tester bias.

• Technician experience has no impact if the equipment is properly calibrated.

What can a higher resting heart rate indicate about a person's fitness level?

• Improved cardiovascular endurance

• Poor physical fitness or stress

• Better resistance to fatigue

• Effective energy expenditure during rest

Which of the following resting heart rates (RHR) classifies as sinus tachycardia?

• RHR <60 bpm

• RHR = 60 to 100 bpm

• RHR >100 bpm

• RHR = 70 to 72 bpm

Which of the following is a common mistake in blood pressure measurement related to the administrator?

• Using the correct cuff size

• Inexperience or inability to read pressure correctly

• Proper cuff positioning

• Calibrating the sphygmomanometer

Why should a trainer follow a logical order when conducting fitness tests?

• To make the session shorter

• To allow clients to rest more frequently

• 
  
  To make the tests more challenging

• To reduce the fatigue effect and improve test accuracy

Which of the following correctly represents the typical order of fitness testing?

• Body composition → Strength → Resting → Cardiovascular

• Cardiovascular → Resting → Body composition → Strength

• Muscle endurance → Resting measures → Cardiovascular → Body composition

• Resting measures → Body composition → Cardiovascular → Muscle strength, endurance, and power

What is the main purpose of starting with resting measures before active fitness test?

• To ensure the client is comfortable
  

• To obtain baseline data without interference from fatigue

• To warm up the muscles for later tests

• To assess flexibility first

Which of the following should be conducted last in a complete fitness assessment sequence?

• Resting heart rate

• Blood pressure

• Cardiovascular endurance

• Muscle strength, endurance, and power
