NASM-CPT Exam Questions and
Answers Graded A+
Obesity ✔✔Person with a BMI of 30 or greater.
bone ✔✔Individuals who exercise regularly have greater peak __________ mass.
feedback ✔✔Repeated practices, as well as internal and external __________, allows for
efficient movement to be reproduced (motor learning).
proprioception ✔✔Research has demonstrated that __________ is altered after injury.
Muscle Synergies ✔✔Groups of muscles that are recruited by the CNS to produce movement.
length-tension relationships ✔✔To ensure the HMS moves properly, it must exhibit proper
force-couple relationships, which can only happen if the muscles are at a good __________ and
the joints have proper arthrokinematics (joint motion).
Force Couple ✔✔Muscle groups moving together to produce movement around a joint.
Length-Tension Relationships ✔✔The resting length of a muscle and the tension the muscle can
produce at this resting length.
Isotonic - constant muscle tension; eccentric - muscle develops tension while lengthening, i.e.,
the bottom of a lunge; concentric - muscle shortens (contractile force greater than resistive
force), i.e. coming out of a lunge; isometric - no visible change in muscle length, i.e., "pause" at
the bottom of a lunge; isokinetic - muscle shortens at constant speed (used mainly in rehab
settings). ✔✔List and describe the five types of muscle actions.
scapular retraction (shoulder blades together), scapular protraction (shoulder blades apart),
scapular depression (shoulder blades down), scapular elevation (shoulder blades up) ✔✔What
are the four types of scapular motion?
Frontal Plane ✔✔Creates front and back halves; motion - adduction/abduction, lateral flexion,
eversion/inversion; axis - anterior/posterior; example - side lunge (side to side)
Sagittal Plane ✔✔Bisects body into right and left sides; movements - flexion/extension; axis -
coronal; examples - bicep curl, squat, walking, climbing stairs (front and back)
Anatomic Position ✔✔The position of the body erect with arms at sides and palms forward.
Transverse Plane ✔✔Motion - internal/external rotation, left/right rotation, horizontal
adduction/abduction; axis - longitudinal; examples - thro
