Question 1(Multiple Choice Worth 3 points)

Question

(02.01 MC)

Static stretches are part of an effective cool down because they can help

improve performance
decrease blood flow
prevent overload
increase range of motion
Question 2(Multiple Choice Worth 3 points)
(02.01 LC)

It is important to avoid isostatic stretches because they can

increase body and muscle temperature
extend a joint beyond its regular range of motion
exceed the stretchable limits of the tissues involved
stretch the muscle to its farthest point
Question 3(Multiple Choice Worth 3 points)
(02.01 LC)

Warming up is important before exercising to

decrease intensity
prevent injury
strengthen muscles
improve performance
Question 4(Multiple Choice Worth 3 points)
(02.01 LC)

A dynamic stretch is

safe, because it involves gradual and controlled movements
safe, because it extends the joint beyond its range of motion
unsafe, because it uses the body's momentum to stretch the muscle
unsafe, because it requires quickly stretching the muscle and joint
Question 5(Multiple Choice Worth 3 points)
(02.01 MC)

To warm up before a run, Lucas walks for five minutes. Which of these accurately evaluates his choice of warm-up activity?

This activity is appropriate because it prepares muscles for more intense movement.
This activity is not appropriate because the muscles stretched are not warm yet.
This activity is appropriate because it makes the leg muscles more flexible.
This activity is not appropriate because it stretches muscles not used in the exercise.
