Would a hand grip be considered a dynamic or static exercise?
static
Ability of the circulatory and respiratory systems to supply oxygen to the muscles to perform dynamic physical activity.
cardiorespiratory fitness
Would a 1 RM squat be considered a dynamic or static exercise?
dynamic
The range of motion around a joint
flexibility
Measures body density via water displacement
hydrostatic weighing

agility
The relative amount of muscle, fat, bone, and other vital parts of the body to body as a whole
body composition
What is considered the gold standard for assessing muscular strength?
1 RM
What are the five components of health related fitness?
1. Cardiorespiratory Fitness 2. Muscular Strength 3. Muscular Endurance 4. Body composition 5. Flexibility
Give the steps to completing a 1 RM exercise.
1. Low intensity aerobic warm-up 2. 1-2 specific warm-up sets
Give the order of operations for assessment.
1. health checks 2. anthropometrics 3. flexibility 4. muscle strength 5. muscular endurance 6. aerobic fitness
What are the six components of skill related fitness
1. speed 2. agility 3. balance 4. power 5. coordination 6. reaction time
A 1 RM should be obtained within how many sets?
4-6
In doing a 1 RM test, the first attempted weight should be done at _______% of an individuals capacity
50-70%
Instead of doing a 1 RM max, what is a good submaximal exercise to use?
6 RM
At want point in an assessment should VO2 max exercises be scheduled?
At the end
Measures body density via air displacement
BODPOD
Which method is best in determining body composition?
BODPOD
An electrical current passes through the body to measure impedance.
Bioelectrical Impedence Analysis
Two different x-ray energies pass through the body and are reduced based on the difference in tissue densities and composition
DEXA
T or F? Anthropometrics gives insight on precise body composition
False
A goniometer and sit & reach test tests ________
Flexibility
What is the main flaw with BMI?
It misclassifies people that have more lean body mass, since muscle weighs more than fat.
What is the issue with Bioelectrical Impedence Analysis
Its accuracy is dependent on many factors
Are maximal or submaximal tests more accurate?
Maximal
Does anthropometrics give insight into body composition?
No
The most common flexibility assessment.
Sit & Reach test
Are maximal or submaximal tests more appropriate for older populations?
Submaximal
What is the gold standard for assessing cardiorespiratory endurance?
VO2 max test
How do you calculate BMI?
Weight (kg)/ Height (m^2)
