NSCA-CSCS: Program Design Part 1,
Top Questions sections, rated A.
Verified.
Needs Analysis - ✔✔-help determine the types of movements & physical requirements of an athlete's
sport, how much time he or she has to train for the sport, & whether the athlete is a beginner or
advanced athlete.
Dynamic Correspondence - ✔✔-involves choosing an appropriate exercise for an athlete based on his or
her sport.
the skill level of the athlete - ✔✔-the # of repetitions for plyometric exercises is related to
# of plyometric exercises for beginner athletes - ✔✔-80-100 repetitions
# of plyometric exercises for intermediate athletes - ✔✔-100-120 repetitions
# of plyometric exercises for master athletes - ✔✔-120-140 repetitions
Mobility Training - ✔✔-What helps improve flexibility for athletes who have limited range of motion?
Tactical metabolic training - ✔✔-uses the athlete's sport to create metabolic conditioning drills that
mimic the sport's speed and endurance requirements
Pace/Tempo training - ✔✔-involves training the athlete at the lactate threshold to improve his or her
aerobic and and anaerobic energy system for the competition
Repetition training - ✔✔-requires the athlete to perform several high-intensity sprints for 30-90 seconds
back-to-back with long rest periods in between
two for two rule - ✔✔-athlete should add 2 repetitions to the last set for 2 training sessions in a row
Focusing on core exercises - ✔✔-Which factors would NOT affect an athlete's ability to increase his
training load?
sleep deprivation, lack of nutrition, and overtraining - ✔✔-Which factors would affect an athlete's ability
to increase his training load?
Heart rate reserve increases & resting-heart rate decreases - ✔✔-What Physiological adaptation is
expected after an athlete has participated in an aerobic-training program?
Heart-rate reserve - ✔✔-the difference between the maximal heart rate & the resting heart rate
Cardiovascular Conditioning - ✔✔-Shorter rest periods promote
Periodization - ✔✔-planning & organizing an athlete's entire training program (strength training, ROM,
conditioning, sports drills, etc.) & planning the training loads & volumes to generate physiological
changes in a certain amount of time
