false
DOMS stands for Delayed Muscle Onset Soreness

false
Long distance runners require exceptional agility.
false
Muscular strength is defined as the minimum amount of force that a muscle can exert against some form of resistance in a single effort.
false

Body Composition includes the measure of:

true
Overload Principle: The basic principle suggests that increasing muscle strength requires more weight (greater resistance) being added over time
true
Sports requiring excellent balance include surfers, and gymnasts.
true
Strength refers to the maximal force that a muscle or muscle group can generate at a specified velocity (speed).
true
The Greeks and Romans emphasized muscular strength in the Olympic Games which represented military skills and exhibits of power and strength
true
The agility video that you created should include elements of coordination, balance, change of direction and speed and possibly others.
true
The oxidative energy system - this system functions from about 1 minute on to provide prolonged physical work.
true
The soreness that occurs 24-72 hours or more after workouts is due to lactic acid build-up in the muscles.
true
Typing, texting, playing Xbox, Play Station or the Wii, and handwriting homework, fatigues muscles that must repeat the same action over and over and are considered Muscular Endurance activities.
true
When the term agility is applied specifically to sport and athletics, it relates to the ability to quickly change body position or direction of the body. Agility includes coordination, balance, speed, reaction time, and sometimes strength and endurance.
true
When you calculate how many times your heart beats in one minute you are calculating how much your heart is working to supply your body (the muscles and organs) the right amount of oxygen (in the blood) needed to sustain your body comfortably and adequately. This is also called Resting Heart Rate.
true
Whenever doing goal-setting for physical development/improvement you should always consider the 4 aspects of FITT.
true
If a person ways 150 lbs. and their percent body fat is 20%, how much weight in lbs. makes up their LBM?
120
A list of things you can do to help overcome obstacles might include the following except... (choose the option that would not be included)
Do a great amount of exercise, even though my body is not used to it.
The BMI equation is:
Weight / (Height x Height) x 703
Estimated Maximal Heartrate or EMH is measured by subtracting your age from 220.
true

electron transfer density
Hand-Eye Coordination or Eye-Foot Coordination are generally very important qualities to master for athletes.
true
Even though the adult recommendations for cardiorespiratory fitness include 20-30 minutes each day (140-210 minutes/week), this class requires a total of 300 minutes each week for your fitness log. !

true
A weekly goal is what you plan to do each day of the week to help you achieve a long term goal.
true
Acceleration is the change in velocity per unit of time. It's an athlete's ability to go from a starting position to a greater velocity and then change from one speed to another.
true
Aerobic activity literally means 'with oxygen.'
true
An example of an Isometric contraction occurred when you did the milk jug hold.
true
Balance is defined as an even distribution of weight enabling someone or something to remain upright and steady.
true
Benefits of Muscular Endurance include release of tension, release of endorphins, increases in lean body mass.
true
Benefits of Muscular Strength Training include improved body shape, strengthening of bones, increases in endurance, and increases in fat-burning metabolism.
