Which of these is not a benefit of a warm-up?
Hypertrophy, the building of muscles, is not a goal of warm-up; a warm-up is used to increase heart rate and temperature to provide an effective transition into exercise
Compare your answer with the correct one above
Which of these muscle pairings can exhibit reciprocal inhibition and altered reciprocal inhibition?
The bicep and triceps are the only agonist and antagonist pairings of muscles from the given options
Compare your answer with the correct one above
Which of these is not a main goal of plyometric training?
Increasing maximal heart rate is not one of the main goals of plyometric training which mostly focuses on developing explosive and quick movement
Compare your answer with the correct one above
What kind of stretching involves applying force to tender areas using implements such as a foam roll?
Self-myofascial release (SMR) stretching often uses implements such as a foam roller to apply force to tender and sore areas of the body
Compare your answer with the correct one above
Which sensory receptor will sense a muscle being stretched?
Muscle spindles are sensory receptors that run parallel to muscle fibers, therefore they are sensitive to when the fibers contract and stretch
