This Exam contains:

-Guarantee passing score -33 Questions and Answers -format set of multiple-choice -Expert-Verified Explanation

Question 1: Near Transfer

Answer:

desired when the learning goal is a task that is relatively similar to training task; transfer of learning is specific and closely approximates the ultimate situation

Question 2: What are the shortcomings of the sports system?

Answer:

1) developmental levels where quality coaching is most needed

2) fundamental movement and sports skill taught poorly

3) coaches unaware and neglect critical periods of accelerated adaptation

Question 3: Processed-Focused Instructional Approach

Answer:

1) correct execution of technical-tactical-mental skills. Athletes/coaches must ask right questions

2) appropriate cues-develop sub routines

3) identify fundamental process of technical, tactical, mental

4) appropriate feedback with performance environment

Question 4: The Muscular System

Answer:

1) skeletal muscles: controlled by CNS

2) cardiac muscles: involuntary blood flow

3) smooth muscles: involuntary

muscles are attached to bone at the origin; insertion is where the muscle is attached to an immovable bone

Question 5: Static Stretching

Answer:

passive stretching. helps reduce soreness

Question 6: What is LTAD?

Answer:

specific and well planned outline of training, competition, and recovery that ensures optimal development throughout an athletes career

Question 7: Transfer Strategies

Answer:

1) training machines and simulations

2) whole vs. part practice

3) lead-up activities and drills

4) mental rehearsal

Question 8: What is the core?

Answer:

lumbo-pelvic-hip complex that is the location for our center of gravity

Question 9: Semantic Memory

Answer:

information learned from either oral or written words. this memory is knowledge and facts of data, books or school work. it requires intrinsic motivation from the learner and requires repetition and long-term storage.

Question 10: Procedural Memory

Answer:

stories about what the body does; often called muscle proprioceptors. sequences that are constantly repeated; allows the brain to do more than one thing at a time

Question 11: Pronation

Answer:

refers to the inward roll of the food during normal motion and occurs as the outer edge of the heel strikes the ground and the foot rolls inward and flattens out

Question 12: What is brain repair?

Answer:

scientists discovered that the brain can reproduce neurons, which has a huge impact on learning.increased physical activity improves this neuron repair process

Question 13: Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Faciliation

Answer:

stretching and muscle contractions that have been proven to be most beneficial for increasing ROM.(contract, relax, reversal, relax, hold, relax)

Question 14: Automatic Memory

Answer:

any learning that has become automatic may be stored here; this is sometimes called conditioned response

Question 15: Dynamic Stretching

Answer:

controlled muscle contractions that mimic sport specific activities

Question 16: CKC and upper extremities

Answer:

used mostly in lower extremity exercises, however they can be incorporated into upper extremity exercises

Question 17: Positive Transfer

Answer:

practicing drills and leading up games with strong transfer to the actual game; drills are similar in nature to the criterion task

Question 18: Closed Kinetic chain exercise

Answer:

when the distal segment of the lower extremity is fixed (as in when foot is weight bearing) the kinetic chain is said to be closed

Question 19: How does learning and memory work?

Answer:

Through encoding, how the information gets into our brains, storage, how the information is held in a way that can later be retrieved, and retrieval, reactivating and recalling the information you have stored.

Question 20: Deep Tissue

Answer:

stretches that fascia around the muscles

Question 21: Neural Flossing

Answer:

breaks up adhesions on the nerve after an injury

Question 22: Characteristics of closed kinetic chain exercise

Answer:

1) increased joint congruency thus stability

2) decreased joint shear

3) decreased acceleration forces

4) large resistance forces

5) stimulation of proprioceptors 6) enhanced dynamic stability
