ACSM Personal Trainer Certification Exam 2022 with complete solution ADL -Answer- One's ability to perform daily tasks such as self care and chores. Acroymn Physical Activity -Answer- Transition from rest to active movement Exercise -Answer- Planned and structured physical activity to improve one or more of the 5 components of fitness 5 Components of Fitness -Answer- 1. Cardiorespiratory Endurance 2. Muscle Endurance 3. Muscle Strength 4. Flexibility 5. Body Composition Fitness Conditioning -Answer- Health Related: Focuses on enhancing QoL, preventing disease, moderate-intensity PA Fitness Conditioning: Focuses on exercise regimens based on recommendations for improving fitness SAID -Answer- In order to improve the goal, you must practice the goal. Ex. If the goal is a 5K, you must run to train for it Rate of Remodeling -Answer- Remodel > Damage --> increase training effort Damage > Remodel --> decrease training effort (or may cause overuse/injury) Over Training -Answer- Injury, inc resting HR, fatigued throughout day, low performance FITT-VP -Answer- Frequency (how often) Intensity (how hard) Time (duration) Type (mode) Volume (overall amount) Progression (how to advance) ATP-CP (Phosphagen) System -Answer- Transfers high energy phosphate from Creatine Phosphate to rephyosphorylate ATP from ADP using the enzyme creatine kinase. Anaerobic 0-30 sec high intensity work sprints, weight lifting ADP+CP --Creatine kinase--> ATP+CAnaerobic Glycolysis (Lactic Acid) -Answer- The rapid breakdown of carbohydrate molecules,either glycogen or glucose, occuring without the presence of oxygen. Anaerobic Glucose & lactic acid :30-3 mins high intensity work 400-800m sprint, 100m swim Oxidation System -Answer- Metabolic pathway that can use fat, protien, and carbohydrate as substrates to produce ATP. Fat oxidation 3+ minutes important for endurance capacity limited by O2 and Cals available *Unfit client has decreased ability to deliver O2 from dec capillary density preventing delivery O2 Physiological Adaptations -Answer- 1. Oxygen Deficit - initial stages of CV training bout referred to as lag in O2 consumption, relying on anaerobic metabolism 2. Steady State - achieved w/ sustained CV once O2 supplied equals O2 demanded. Inc fit, reach SS faster and endurance depends how long you stay here. 3. EPOC - O2 debt, uptake remained elevated post exercise for several minutes (or house if longer bout); EPOC effect is to restore CP/ATP in muscles and O2 in blood; "after burn" effect Oxygen Deficit -Answer- Initial stages of CV training bout referred to as lag in O2 consumption, relying on anaerobic metabolism Steady state -Answer- Achieved w/ sustained CV once O2 supplied equals O2 demanded. Inc fit, reach faster and endurance depends how long you stay here. EPOC (Excess Postexercise Oxygen Consumption) -Answer- O2 debt, uptake remained elevated post exercise for several minutes (or house if longer bout); Effect is to restore CP/ATP in muscles and O2 in blood; "after burn" effect Sino Atrial Node -Answer- Pacemaker of the heart, in RA, initiates contraction Atrioventricular Node -Answer- Slows down the heart contracting Right Chambers -Answer- RA receives deoxy blood from vena cava.
