Fast twitch

b)

Slow twitch

Soluble

d)

Textile

2.

Slow twitch

c)

Soluble

d)

Textile

3.

The human body is able to adapt muscle fiber types, based on strength development training.

a)

True

b)

False

4.

The type of exercise where no movement takes place while a force is being exerted against an immovable object.

a)

Isometric

b)

Isotonic

c)

Isokinetic

5.

The type of exercise where the exercises are performed on machines that keep the velocity constant throughout the range of movement (preventing the performer from moving faster, no matter how much force is exerted).

a)

Isometric

b)

Isotonic

c)

Isokinetic

6.

The type of exercise where resistance is raised then lowered.

a)

Isometric

b)

Isotonic

c)

Isokinetic

7.

a)

Isometric

b)

Concentric

c)

Eccentric

d)

Intense

8.

The movement that occurs movement when the muscle lengthens while producing force. For example, when you're lowering the weight back down during a biceps curl.

a)

Isometric

b)

Concentric

c)

Eccentric

d)

Intense

9.

The type of exercises where the segment furthest away from the body — known as the distal aspect, usually the hand or foot — is free and not fixed to an object.

a)

Open Chain

b)

Closed Chain

10.

The type of exercises where the resistance the segment furthest away from the body — known as the distal aspect, usually the hand or foot — is fixed, or stationary.

a)

Open Chain

b)

Closed Chain

11.

All out

b)

Interval

c)

Go then stop

d)

On then off

15.

a)

Take supplements to build bulk

b)

Increase resistance to build bulk

c)

Take supplements to burn fat

d)

Increase repetitions to tone
