Don&#8217;t get stuck with using the same program\/workouts over and over again,<br>which will lead to orthopedic stress. Incorporate different modes of training and experiment. A<br>good example is cross-training, which involves performing different activities and sports to<br>achieve a well-rounded and healthy body.<br>Q: Individuals with hypertension should moderate their intake of what?<br>Answer:<br>Salt<br>It has been shown to increase blood pressure in sodium-sensitive individuals. Half of<br>hypertensive individuals are sodium-sensitive.<br>Q: A client performs 8 reps of the seated leg press at 320 lbs. What is their estimated 1RM?<br>Answer:<br>400 lbs<br>Take the weight that he lifted (320 lbs) and divide that by 80% (0.80 is the percent of max) and<br>that = 400 lbs.<br>Q: What would be a symptom of overtraining?<br>Answer:<br>Decrease in performance<br>There are two types of overtraining:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Sympathetic: mostly seen in anaerobic clients, this type of overtraining affects the sympathetic<br>nervous system (speeds up bodily functions; increasing energy needs) and results in increased<br>resting heart rate, increased blood pressure, loss of appetite &#8211; which leads to weight loss and<br>decreased body mass, sleeping problems, emotional instability, and an elevated basal metabolic<br>rate.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Parasympathetic: mostly seen in aerobic clients, the opposite occurs. Since this system slows<br>down bodily functions and conserves energy, overtraining will result in early onset of fatigue,<br>increased resting heart rate, heart rate recovery after exercise slows down, and an increase in<br>resting blood pressure.<br>Q: What is primarily responsible for strength gains in beginner clients?<br>Answer:<br>Neural adaptations<br>Beginners will see a spike in strength and then hypertrophy comes after. Once they have more<br>strength, then they&#8217;ll be able to lift heavier weights for more reps (6 &#8211; 12) = hypertrophy.<br>Q: What plane of motion does squatting take place in?<br>Answer:<br>Sagittal plane<br>Any exercise where your body moves back to front or vice versa.<br>Q: In a client&#8217;s training cycle, one day or training session is known as what?<br>Answer:<br>Microcycle<br>A microcycle can last a few days to a week, where mesocycle lasts months, and a macrocycle<br>lasts at least a year.<br>Q: How often should information be collected when training with a client?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ISSA Final Exam |Questions and VerifiedAnswers| 2023\/ 2024 New UpdateQ: What is the most superficial (closest to the surface) muscle of the abdominals.Answer:External obliquesQ: Utilizing the FITT principle, how many times a week should a beginner client workout for?Answer:3 times a week.
