This type of muscle action occurs when a muscle shortens to produce movement at a joint during physical activity

What is a concentric muscle action

100

This type of injury occurs suddenly and is often the result of a single traumatic event during physical activity

What is an acute injury

100

This training method uses continuous aerobic activity to improve cardiorespiratory endurance

What is Continous Training

100

his term describes the amount of blood pumped by the heart in one beat and increases during exercise 

What is stroke volume

100

 This term refers to the amount of air inhaled and exhaled in one breath and increases during exercise

What is tidal volume

200

This muscle fibre type is highly fatigue resistant and suited to sustained aerobic activity

What are Type I slow twitch muscle fibres

200

his type of musculoskeletal injury develops over time due to repetitive stress with inadequate recovery

What is a chronic overuse injury

200

This performance enhancing substance is prohibited because it artificially increases red blood cell production and poses significant health risks

What is erythropoietin EPO

200

These blood vessels have thin walls and are the site of gas exchange between the blood and working muscles 

What are capillaries

200

This state occurs during sustained submaximal exercise when oxygen supply matches oxygen demand

What is Steady State

300

his principle explains how the agonist contracts while the antagonist relaxes to allow efficient movement at a joint

What is reciprocal inhibition

300

This intrinsic risk factor increases the likelihood of injury due to previous damage that has not fully healed

What is previous injury history

300

This performance enhancing method is permitted and improves oxygen availability through exposure to reduced oxygen environments 

What is altitude training

300

This chamber of the heart receives deoxygenated blood returning from the body via the vena cava

What is the right atrium

300

This concept explains why aerobic energy production cannot immediately meet energy demands at the start of exercise

What is oxygen deficit

400

This class of lever is most common in the human body and favours speed and range of movement rather than force 

What is a third class lever

400

This term describes an injury to a ligament caused by excessive stretching or tearing at a joint 

What is a sprain

400

his principle emphasises that athletes should prioritise whole foods over supplements to safely support training and performance

What is Food First

400

This cardiovascular response explains how the heart lungs and blood work together to deliver oxygen and remove waste products to maintain aerobic performance

What is the cardiovascular system supporting oxygen delivery and waste removal during exercise

400

This structure of the respiratory system is the main site where oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged between the air and the blood

What are the alveoli

500

This theory explains how actin and myosin interact within the sarcomere to produce muscle contraction

What is the sliding filament theory

500

What are the four stages of rehabilitation that progress an individual from initial injury management to complete functional recovery

protection mobilisation

Open Closed exercises

Sport specific reconditioning

Maintenance prevention

500

This organisation is responsible for regulating anti doping globally and applies three criteria to determine whether a substance or method is prohibited in sport 

What is the World Anti Doping Agency and the three criteria are that it could enhances performance poses an actual or potential health risk and violates the spirit of sport

500

Photo Question

A) Aorta

B) Left Atrium

C) Left Ventricle

D) Right Atrium

500

This part of the respiratory system includes structures such as the trachea bronchi and bronchioles and is responsible for transporting warming and humidifying air rather than gas exchange

What is the conducting zone of the respiratory system
