How would you classify your flexibility based on the normative Sit and Reach values, and how might this affect your performance in strength-based movements like squats or deadlifts

Good flexibility limits range of motion and increases injury risk

Excellent flexibility supports better technique and reduces injury risk

100%

Flexibility has no impact on strength-based movements

Poor flexibility improves squat depth and reduces injury risk

Below is a table of data for a subject performing a Resistance Exercise in the gym - Bench Press. Use this data to plot yourself a graph of Load vs. Repetitions. Draw a line though your two points to estimate this subjects "1 RM" or 1 Repetition Maximum. (ie. What do you estimate is the maximum load this subject can lift for only 1 repetition?)

	Set 1	Set 2	Set 3
Load (kg)	47	56	63
Number of reps	12	8	5

An elite skier is competing to enter the Australian Winter Olympic Freestyle Aerial Ski jump team. This sport requires the generation of a large amount of power and force during the take off component of the jump. Not only does this skier need to compete and win to be selected, but she is also required to complete an assessment of her physical performance. Which of the following tests would be the BEST test to assess whether this skier has the physical capacity required to enter the Olympics for this competition?

The vertical jump test

Both 30m sprint and the beep test (multi-stage shuttle test)

The 30 metre sprint

The beep test (multi-stage shuttle test)

Use the table provided in your prac manual to calculate the 6-RM for this subject (ie. what estimated load required to perform 6 repetitions?). Select the correct answer below

Which COMBINATION of instances would you NOT use the Multistage Shuttle Run (beep test) for assessing the aerobic capacity of a subject?

1. Lower Limb Injury

2. Subject has Cardiovascular or Respiratory Disease

3. Elite Cyclist
