Which of the following does the SAID principle not influence? (Select all that apply) i. The selection of open versus closed kinetic chain exercise ii. The selection of specific muscles or muscle groups to strengthen iii. The range of motion through which the exercise is performed

i. The selection of open versus closed kinetic chain exercise ii. The selection of specific muscles or muscle groups to strengthen iii. The range of motion through which the exercise is performed

Which of the following are true of the repetition maximum (RM): (Select all that apply) i. Establishing a 1-RM involves trial and error and so has been determined to be invalid for use in research studies for resistance training. ii. A 1-RM can be mathematically calculated from a patient's ability to perform multiple reps at a reduced load. iii. RM can be used to document a baseline for a muscle group's dynamic strength. iv. RM is an effective way to determine an appropriate exercise load to begin and progress strength training.

Which of the following is an advantage of plyometric exercise? (Select all that apply) i. A large maximal force can be obtained through the use of added resistance. ii. Maximal dynamic forces are developed very rapidly. iii. Elastic energy obtained by stretching the muscle helps produce faster muscular contractions. iv. Magnitude of maximum force is significantly greater than that produced by other training methods.

kinetics

involves the forces, whether internal or external that affect motion.

isometric, isotonic, isokinetic: Cybex, Biodex

isokinetic

isometric, isotonic, isokinetic: Provides muscle overload throughout ROM

isokinetic

isometric, isotonic, isokinetic: Joint angle maintained

isometric

isometric, isotonic, isokinetic: static strength

isometric

isometric, isotonic, isokinetic: Exercises multiple joints simultaneously

isotonic

isometric, isotonic, isokinetic: Free weights

isotonic

isometric, isotonic, isokinetic: Resistance is greatest in the muscle's midrange

isotonic

isometric, isotonic, isokinetic: Variable speed through a ROM

isotonic

isometric, isotonic, isokinetic: elastic tubing

isotonic

_______________________ principle is the name of the principle in which the body must perform more work than it is used to in order to see progressive benefits?

overload

T/F: A factor that determines muscle output is the number of muscle fibers activated.

true

T/F: A factor that determines muscle strength is the joint's angle.

true

T/F: A factor that determines muscle strength is the muscle's cross-sectional size.

true

T/F: A factor that determines muscle strength is the muscle's fiber arrangement.

true

T/F: A factor that determines muscle strength is the muscle's length.

true

T/F: All PNF extremity movements incorporate rotation and diagonal patterns.

true

T/F: Each strengthening exercise should have a goal and a reason for inclusion in a therapeutic exercise program.

true

T/F: Eccentric contractions are critical for deceleration of limb motion, especially during high-velocity dynamic activities.

true

T/F: Generally, the faster the rate of muscle contraction, the greater the internal resistance, so the muscle cannot produce as much external force as it can when the muscle contracts more slowly.

true

T/F: It is recommended that the athlete be able to squat 60% of his or her body weight for five repetitions before instituting an aggressive plyometric program.

true

T/F: Low-resistance, high-repetition strengthening exercises are commonly used in the early phases of rehabilitation to reduce the application of excessive stress.

true

T/F: More shear stress is placed on the knee in open-chain terminal extension than in closed-chain terminal extension.

true

T/F: Pain should be avoided during therapeutic exercise programs for strengthening.

true

T/F: Recovery from isometric activity occurs more rapidly than from isotonic activity.

true

T/F: Strength improves because of the production of an overload of exercise resistance for the muscles.

true

T/F: The goal of the amortization phase is to rapidly move from eccentric to concentric motion to facilitate the transfer of elastic energy in order to increase force production.

true

T/F: The greater the force resisted, the more quickly muscle fatigue occurs.

true

True or False? The results of a manual muscle test (MMT) are negated if the contraction causes pain.

true
