ACSM Personal Trainer Certification Exam Questions with accurate answers, 100% Accurate. ADL - ✔✔One's ability to perform daily tasks such as self care and chores Physical Activity - ✔✔T... ransition from rest to active movement Exercise - ✔✔Planned and structured physical activity to improve one or more of the 5 components of fitness 5 Components of Fitness - ✔✔1. Cardiorespiratory Endurance 2. Muscle Endurance 3. Muscle Strength 4. Flexibility 5. Body Composition Types of Fitness Conditioning - ✔✔Health Related: Focuses on enhancing QoL, preventing disease, moderate-intensity PA Fitness Conditioning: Focuses on exercise regimens based on recommendations for improving fitness SAID - ✔✔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 - ✔✔Remodel > Damage --> increase training effort Damage > Remodel --> decrease training effort (or may cause overuse/injury) Signs of Over Training - ✔✔Injury, inc resting HR, fatigued throughout day, low performance FITT-VP - ✔✔Frequency (how often) Intensity (how hard) Time (duration) Type (mode) Volume (overall amount) Progression (how to advance) ATP-CP Phosphagen System - ✔✔Anaerobic 0-30 sec high intensity work sprints, weight lifting Anaerobic Glycolysis/Lactic Acid - ✔✔Anaerobic Glucose & lactic acid :30-3 mins high intensity work 400-800m sprint, 100m swim Oxidation System - ✔✔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 - ✔✔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 Sino Atrial Node - ✔✔Pacemaker of the heart, in RA, initiates contraction Atrioventricular Node - ✔✔Slows down the heart contracting Right Chambers - ✔✔RA receives deoxy blood from vena cava. Blood travels to RV through tricuspid valve. Leaves RV via pulmonary semilunar valve to pulmonary system. Left Chambers - ✔✔LA receives oxy blood from veins. Travels to LV through bicuspid valve then to aorta through the aortic semilunar valve where it then travels through the body's arteries to deliver oxygen. Pulse Sights - ✔✔Carotid (not recommended to perform on someone) Brachial Femoral Radial (most recommended) Heart Rate - ✔✔Avg is 72bpm resting (normal is 60-100bpm) Good gauge for clients to see how fit they are becoming Tachycardia/Bradychardia - ✔✔Faster than normal heart rate, >100 bpm Slower than normal heart rate, < 60 bpm Stroke Volume (SV) - ✔✔The amount of blood pumped from the left ventricle in one beat Cardiac Output (CO) - ✔✔The amount of blood pumped from the heart in one minute Arteriovenous Oxygen Difference - ✔✔Difference between oxygen content of arterial and venous blood Pulmonary Ventilation - ✔✔Volume of air exchanged per minute VO2 Max - ✔✔Highest rate and amount of O2 achieved at maximal physical exertion Acute CR Response to Aerobic Exercise - ✔✔Increase: HR, SV, CO, AOD, BF, systolic BP, pulmonary ventilation, O2 consumption Chronic CR Adaptations to Aerobic Exercise - ✔✔Decrease: RHR, BP, blood lactate Increase: SV, CO Synovial Joints - ✔✔Freely movable allowing for variety of angular, circular, and specialized movements; most common type in human body Cardiac Muscle - ✔✔involuntary muscle tissue Smooth Muscle - ✔✔involuntary muscle tissue of arterial walls and organs of the body Skeletal Muscle - ✔✔Voluntary muscle tissue made of striated fibers Type I Fibers - ✔✔Aerobic, slow twitch, slow oxidative, red twitch Type IIA Fibers - ✔✔Aerobic and anaerobic capabilities, intermediate fibers, fast oxidative glycolitic fibers Type IIB Fibers - ✔✔Anaerobic fibers, fast glycolitic, white twitch fibers Acute Responses to Strength/Endurance Training - ✔✔Increase HR and BP, SV (eccentric) Chronic Responses to Strength/Endurance Training - ✔✔Hypertrophy, hyperplasia, muscle fiber transformation, increase in connective tissue Hypertrophy - ✔✔Increase in muscle size Hyperplasia - ✔✔Increase in number of cells Traumatic/Acute Muscle Injuries - ✔✔Contusions/bruises, muscle strains, AOMS, DOMS, joint subluxation/dislocation, ligament sprains Overuse/Chronic Muscle and Joint Injuries - ✔✔tonditis, fasciitis, bursitis, osteoarthritis, shin splints, patello-femoral pain RICE - ✔✔Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation, (Stabilization) Symptoms of Angina - ✔✔Chest pain and pressure, radiating jaw pain, shortness of breath, subscapular pain Heat Exhaustion - ✔✔Cool, moist, pale or flushed skin, dizziness, weakness, heavy sweating, body temperature near normal Heat Stroke - ✔✔Red, hot, dry skin, rapid weak pulse, changes in level of consciousness, vomiting, body temperature as high as 105F Hydration Recommendation - ✔✔16 fl. oz water for every lb lost during exercise Antihypertensive Medication - ✔✔Reduces high BP, can cause reduced BP in exercise Psychotropic Medication - ✔✔Can slow down metabolism Beta-Blocker Medication - ✔✔Reduces resting and exercise HR and BP Caffeine as Erg. Aid - ✔✔May extend endurance in moderate aerobic exercises, mobilizes FFA into blood stream 1st Class Lever - ✔✔Primarily for balance, see saw Ex. Head on cervical vertebrae 2nd Class Lever - ✔✔Primarily for power Wheel barrow Ex. Plantar flexion while walking 3rd Class Lever - ✔✔Primarily for ROM, always physiological disadvantaging movement, distance between lever and fulcrum is smallest; 75% of skeletal system Ex. Shoveling motion Elbow flexion Lever-Pulley-Fulcrum - ✔✔Bones-Muscles-Joints Sagittal Plane - ✔✔Divides body into left and right segments Flexion/extension movements Frontal Plane - ✔✔Divides body into anterior and posterior segments Abduction/adduction movements, some fl/ex Horizontal Plane - ✔✔Divides body into superior and inferior segments Ab/adduction along horizon Chest, traps, upper back, obliques Supine/prone - ✔✔Face up/face down Anterior/posterior - ✔✔Front/back Proximal/distal - ✔✔Closer to trunk/further from trunk Superior/inferior - ✔✔Above/b [Show More]
