People who stop exercising can expect to lose up to 50% of their fitness improvement within
2 months.
Another name for cycle training is
periodization.
Cardiorespiratory endurance is developed best by activities that
involve continuous rhythmic movements of large-muscle groups.
Muscular strength and endurance are developed best by activities that
involve working with resistance such as weights or performing calisthenic exercises.
Flexibility is best developed by
stretching major muscle groups regularly.
Healthy body composition is developed best by the combination of
sensible diet, resistance training, and endurance exercise.
A key to improving fitness is to
exercise consistently.
Overuse or overtraining injuries are MOST likely to occur when you
increase the intensity of exercise before increasing the time (duration) of exercise.
Which one of the following statements about cooling down is true?
It restores circulation to its normal resting condition.
Which of the following sources of fitness information is probably LEAST likely to provide
useful advice?
a person who looks physically fit
An exercise stress test can determine if you have
symptoms of heart disease.
The best way to lose body fat is through
sensible diet and regular exercise.
The body adapting to a gradual increase in the amount of exercise is the definition of
progressive overload.

The best way to lose body fat is through sensible diet and regular exercise. The body adapting to a gradual increase in the amount of exercise is the definition of progressive overload. All of the following are considered skill-related fitness components EXCEPT flexibility. The maximal improvement in the body's ability to transport and use oxygen that people can realistically expect as a result of training is about 15–30%. Which of the following is TRUE regarding exercise intensity?

Fitness benefits occur when a person exercises harder than his or her normal level of activity. If you must temporarily stop exercising regularly, which of the following factors should be maintained while the others are curtailed? intensity The recommended time (duration) for cardiorespiratory endurance exercise is _____ minutes. 20– Healthy body composition is best characterized by a high proportion of muscle, bone, and water and a low proportion of fat. Flexibility is best described as the ability to move the joints through their full range of motion. Muscular strength is the amount of force a muscle can produce with a single maximum effort. Heart disease is linked most closely with low cardiorespiratory fitness. As a person's cardiorespiratory endurance increases, the resting heart rate decreases. The ability of the body to perform prolonged, large-muscle, dynamic exercise at moderate-to- high levels of intensity is cardiorespiratory endurance. All of the following are components of health-related fitness EXCEPT speed. Which of the following is FALSE regarding physical activity? Activity should be in the form of a formal, continuous exercise program. Exercise is a subset of physical activity that is planned, structured, and repetitive. Thelatest version of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends ________ for the promotion of health. burning about 150 calories per day through physical activity Physical activity can be defined as muscular movement of the body that requires energy to produce. SMART goals are specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, time relevant
