Questions and Answers Already Passed
Longitudinal Muscle ✔✔A muscle that produces low force and has a high contractile rate is
classified as a _________
Dorsiflexion; talus ✔✔The ankle's most stable position is in ______ due to the overall shape of
the ______
Moderate Risk ✔✔During the pre-participation screening your client is determined to have 4 risk
factors. This is considered to be:
Contraindication ✔✔A reason or rationale NOT to perform exercise or testing
Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) ✔✔If difficulties are encountered in calculating percentage
VO2max for prescribing exercise intensity in cases of cardiac disease, the EP-C should instead
consider
flexion; extension ✔✔A posterior pelvic tilt produces lumbar _____ and an anterior pelvic tilt
produces lumbar _____
transverse plane ✔✔Pronation of the radioulnar joint occurs in:
Sagittal plane; flexion/extension ✔✔The facet joints of the lumbar spine are oriented in the _____
which primarily allows _____ motions
Supraliac ✔✔Which of the following utilizes a DIAGONAL fold when assessing body
composition via skinfold calipers
Unable to externally rotate the shoulder joint past 60 degrees ✔✔While supine, your client
performs ROM on the shoulder joint. She displays tightness in the infraspinatus and teres minor.
You were led to this conclusion because the client was:
Cardiac Output ✔✔Defined as the volume of blood being pumped by the heart in a minute
Sagittal
Explanation:
Hyperlordosis is an exaggerated curvature of the lumbar spine that would be viewed in the sagittal
plane. Pg 98 ✔✔Deviations in which plane are referred to as hyperlordosis:
4 compartments of the lower limb ✔✔1. Superficial posterior compartment (i.e. posterior tibial
compartment on PrepU) (gastrocnemius, soleus, plantaris)
2. Deep posterior compartment (posterior tibialis, flexor hallucis longus, flexor digitorum longus)
3. Lateral compartment -- outside of the leg (peroneus longus, peroneus brevis)
4. Anterior compartment (anterior tibialis, extensor digitorum longus, extensor hallucis longus.
1, 2, 3 are plantarflexion
4 is dorsiflexion
Which of the following is MOST accurate regarding exercise testing and pregnant women?
✔✔Submaximal exercise testing is more appropriate, however rarely indicated.
Aerobic Exercise Training ✔✔Which of the following has the greatest effect on the reduction of
blood pressure
Kinesiology ✔✔The study of the mechanics of human movement is called:
Dyslipidemia ✔✔Total 200 mg/dL or HDL <40 mg/dL or LDL >130 mg/dL
horizontal abduction ✔✔What joint action of the shoulder is performed during a reverse cable fly
or a reverse dumbbell fly
extension; sagittal ✔✔Concentric contraction of the triceps brachii muscle causes _____ in the
_____ plane
Total peripheral resistance may drop slightly ✔✔During graded exercise, which of the following
occurs due to large muscle vasodilation?
