Weight Training Quiz 1

Front 1

Strength training and resistance training

Back 1

Any exercise/activity that requires the
body’s musculature to move (or attempt to move) against an opposing force

Front 2

Weight training

Back 2

a specific type of strength/resistance training using free weights or some kind of machine

Front 3

Modes of Exercise

Back 3

Bodyweight
Machine
Free weight
Bands

Front 4

Types of Muscle

Back 4

• Smooth (organs)
• Cardiac (heart)
• Skeletal (moves limbs)
o Type I (red, endurance)
o Type II (white, short fast bursts)

Front 5

Gains in Strength

Back 5

• Increase cross-sectional area
• Increase neuromuscular coordination

Front 6

Isometric

Back 6

muscular action where muscle length unchanged under resistance (muscle force equals external resistance)

Front 7

Isotonic

Back 7

a muscular action in which a muscle exerts a constant tension

Front 8

Types of Isotonic Muscle Action

Back 8

o Concentric – muscle gets shorter under resistance (muscle force is greater than the external resistance)
o Eccentric – muscle gets longer under resistance (muscle force is less than external resistance) Force capabilities 120- 160% greater than in concentric actions

Front 9

Free weights and machines are __________

Back 9

not isotonic because the muscles exert differing
amounts of force through the ROM based on mechanical advantage of the joints

Front 10

Dynamic Constant External Resistance

Back 10

a resistance exercise like machines or free weights in which the external resistance does not change

Front 11

Isokinetic

Back 11

a muscular action performed at constant angular limb velocity (special equipment needed)

Front 12

Repetition

Back 12

one complete movement of an exercise

Front 13

Set

Back 13

a group of repetitions performed continuously without stopping or resting ~ Written example: 5 x 12 (5 sets of 12 reps)

Front 14

Muscle Actions

Back 14

isometric, isotonic, isokinetic
