True or False: Based on the research presented, Overtraining Syndrome is most common among strength-power athletes participating in team sport. 
(Monitoring Training-Induced Stress)

True

False

According to the presentation, how should load/volume (workload) be programmed to sustain long-term athlete progress?
(Monitoring Training-Induced Stress)

Incremental increases in workload week-to-week, without de-loading or recovery

Avoid training with high workload as athletes approach their theoretical limit of work

Working close to or at the theoretical limit of work, with occasional bouts of functional overreaching

Consistent work at, or above, the theoretical upper limit of stress, challenging the athlete and raising their training ceiling

According to the presentation, reasons to further investigate the strength and conditioning needs of female soldiers include the following.  
(Female Soldier Training Program)

Nearly 44% of female soldiers fail the ACFT

Males and females have unique physiology as it relates to athletic and tactical performance

Many strength and conditioning coaches lack specific knowledge or experience working with female athletes or outside of the typical college-aged years.

All of the above

Anatomy and physiology considerations of the female soldier include all of the following, EXCEPT:
(Female Soldier Training Program)

Smaller cardiovascular system (i.e., heart size, lung capacity, stroke volume, cardiac output)

Lower tolerance for long distance submaximal exercise

Higher body fat levels

Lax ligaments which can result in injury

True or False: There is a direct link between the intake of Calcium and Vitamin D with stress fractures in female soldiers.  

True

False

From the research presented, which exercises are likely to transfer better to horizontal acceleration; vertical jump height; and change of direction, respectively?  

(Transfer Between Lifts: Increase Strength in Untrained Exercises)
 
[Answer using the same respective order as outcomes listed in the question above] 

Front Squat; Rear Foot Elevated Split Squat (RESS); Barbell Hip Thrust

Rear Foot Elevated Split Squat (RESS); Barbell Hip Thrust; Step Ups

Barbell Hip Thrust; Front Squat; Rear Foot Elevated Split Squat (RESS)

Back Squat; Kettlebell Swing; Isometric Rack Pull

True or False: Unilateral and bilateral lower body strength exercises may be equally effective in developing lower body strength for producing sprint speed. However, in sports with high agility demands, selecting exercises with a significant eccentric component are likely more important than the bilateral/unilateral orientation of the exercise.   
(Transfer Between Lifts: Increase Strength in Untrained Exercises)

True

False

Before using a nutritional supplement, athletes should be encouraged to do the following: 
(Dietary Supplement Industry)

 

Discuss the supplement with a qualified medical professional

Consult a Registered Dietitian about the supplement and other dietary changes

Review and understand the possible benefits and risks of taking the supplement

All of the above

True or False: According to the FDA, a supplement obtaining a seal of approval from an independent third-party quality testing and product certification organization guarantees that the product is both safe and effective.

True

False

Identify the one FALSE statement from the answers below: 

(Sport Science Programs)

Many emerging performance technologies lack validity, reliability, and interpretability.

According to the authors, department structure should be determined according to the technologies being used in the program.

High Performance Directors can help ensure that silos are avoided through establishing lines of communication and data streams.

Intercollegiate sport science roles may include academic faculty members, new dedicated staff roles within the athletic department, and/or existing athletic department staff (e.g., strength and conditioning coaches).
