false

Benefits of Cardiorespiratory Fitness include lowering of cholesterol, increasing longevity, improving cognition and focus, being able to lift heavier weights, and improving the quality of sleep.

false

Coordination is a genetic attribute that cannot be developed.

false

Long distance runners require exceptional agility.

false

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

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.

true

Cardiac muscle is the type of muscle that makes up the heart.

true

Cardiorespiratory fitness has many interchangeable names including cardiovascular fitness, aerobic endurance, and cardiorespiratory capacity.
