  • Q1
    Following resistance training, augmented neural drive to the working musculature is the result of I. increased agonist muscle recruitment II. muscle hypertrophy III. improved firing rate IV. greater synchronization
    I and IV only
    I, II, and III only
    I, II, and IV only
    all of the above

  • Q2
    When one is performing a box-to-box plyometric drop jump, in order to generate sufficient force in a limited amount of time (<200 ms), which muscle fibers are bypassed through the principle of selective recruitment?
    IIc
    IIx
    I
    IIa
    60s
  • Q3
    Which of the following performance or physiological characteristics is NOT usually observed in a state of nonfunctional overreaching (NFOR) within athlete populations?
    increased levels of fatigue
    mood disturbances and depression
    hormonal disturbances
    stagnation and a decrease in performance
    60s
  • Q4
    Following prolonged periods of detraining in elite strength/power athletes, which of the following physical characteristics will likely show the largest reduction as a consequence of the removal of an anaerobic training stimulus?
    slow-twitch fiber cross-sectional area
    total Type I muscle fiber content
    total fat mass
    fast-twitch fiber cross-sectional area
    60s
  • Q5
    Following a period of chronic high-intensity resistance training, a variety of physiological adaptations take place in a number of systems within the body that promote improved athletic performance in strength/power activities. If an elite athlete were to undergo 12 weeks of heavy strength training, which of the following adaptations would NOT be expected consequent to this type of anaerobic exercise?
    a transition from Type IIx to Type IIa muscle fiber
    elevated sodium–potassium ATPase activity
    increased pennation angle in certain muscle groups
    reduced sarcoplasmic reticulum and T-tubule density
    60s
  • Q6
    In which of the following athletes might you expect limited bone mineral density (BMD) levels as a consequence of the force vectors and the physical demands associated with the given sport?
    a 19-year-old 800 m freestyle swimmer with one year of dryland training
    a 33-year-old track cyclist who has a 1RM squat of 352 pounds
    a 23-year-old offensive lineman who has lifted weights for eight years
    a 16-year-old gymnast with a seven-year training history in her sport
    60s
