KIN Exam 2 Questions
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What does determining maximal oxygen consumption (VO2 max) tell us? | It tells us the average values and lactate threshold. |
| What are functions of the pulmonary system in response to exercise/exercise training? | |
| How does the cardiovascular system control blood flow to specific organ systems? | Blood flow distribution changes in reaction to exercise, so blood flows where it is needed the most. |
| What is the relationship between heart rate and exercise intensity? | As exercise increase, heart rate increases. |
| What parts of the body do the systemic and pulmonary circuits of the cardiovascular system serve? | Lungs?? |
| How much food energy is converted into movement? | |
| What is ATP? | |
| Explain skeletal muscle contraction. | |
| How does the human body increase temperature? | |
| Describe kinesiology | |
| What adaptive process does skeletal muscle use to increase strength in adult humans? | |
| What are the physiological adaptations to sprint/strength training? | |
| What muscle fiber type is best suited for endurance events? | |
| The body’s ability to deliver oxygen to working skeletal muscle is most beneficial for what type exercise? | |
| Endurance training enhances the body’s ability to use which macronutrient? | |
| What factors influence maximal aerobic capacity (VO2max)? | |
| What does FITT stand for? | |
| What type of muscle contraction generates the most force? | |
| How does the body use blood flow to lose heat? | |
| Define overload as it pertains to training progression. | |
| Which body composition technique can be manipulated by hydration status? | |
| What tissues are part of the body’s lean mass? | |

| What are the performance-related fitness characteristics? | |
| What are the current trends for children in regards to fitness level and obesity? | |
| Know how males and females compare in late adolescence in regards to flexibility, aerobic endurance, body fat percentage and strength | |
| T/F The developmental continuum eliminates the need for the study of aging. | |
| Is strength training effective for gaining strength for adults 60 years of age and older? | |
