Coaching
Motivation driven by enjoyment, personal growth, and mastery is called what?
Intrinsic Motivation
Name one assessment that measures strength.
1RM/10RM, Biodex, or strength testing
You want to emphasize a specific muscle/joint. Open or closed chain?
open chain
This is a researched and established protocol to help guide exercise warm ups.
RAMP protocol
Name two factors that can influence a person's flexibility.
Age, gender, lifestyle, joint structure, temperature.
Name the three psychological needs in Self-Determination Theory.
Autonomy, relatedness, competence
In the Cooper Test, the athlete runs for this amount of time.
12 minutes
Name one reason you might use unilateral training.
Cross-education, increased coordination demands, post-surgical training, elderly populations, or because it decreases the ability to load
Leg swings and hip CARs are examples of this RAMP phase.
Mobilize
These receptors are located at the musculotendinous junction and detect tension.
GTOs
This style of coaching encourages collaboration and shared decision-making.
Democratic
The Davies test measures the dynamic movement of what area?
Shoulder/scapula
You want to emphasize positional strength, joint tolerance, and stability. Which contraction could you emphasize?
Isometric
This phase of the RAMP gradually increases intensity, speed, and power to prepare an athlete for high-force or high-speed demands.
A muscle is rapidly stretched. Which receptor detects the change in muscle length and contributes to the stretch reflex?
Muscle spindles
This leadership approach is based on rewards, consequences, structure, and accountability.
Transactional leadership
These two tests are dynamic assessments of balance and mobility.
Y-balance, star-excursion balance
Your athlete needs to improve deceleration and force absorption. Which contraction should you emphasize?
Eccentric
What are three components of the mental warm up?
Shifting attention, arousal regulation, goal setting
This energy system fuels hard efforts lasting approximately 10–15 seconds and fully restores in about 3–5 minutes.
ATP-PCr
A coach builds strong relationships and creates a sense of team belonging. Which SDT need are they supporting?
Relatedness
You want to know how an athlete controls movement while running, jumping, or changing direction. What type of movement should you assess?
Dynamic movement
Give two ways you could progress the exercise without just "adding weight"
Alter stability/balance, coordination, tempo, ROM, contraction emphasis, fatigue, etc.
Name two physiological changes that occur during a warm-up.
increased HR, cardiac output, blood flow, muscle temperature, metabolic/enzymatic activity, neural activation, or movement/ROM readiness
Put these in order from most foundational to least foundational: modalities, nutrition, active recovery, sleep, hydration.
sleep, nutrition, hydration, active recovery, modalities
