Agonist = prime mover (ie quads and glute max in the back squat) Antagonist - muscle that opposes the agonist (ie hip flexors and hamstrings in the back squat) Synergist = helps with the movement (ie hamstrings, adductor magnus, gastrocnemius, soleus, and erector spinae in the back squat)

What distinguishes synovial joints from other joint types? A. They contain cartilage directly between bones with no fluid B. They fuse bone to bone through connective tissue strands C. They are filled with synovial fluid and allow considerable movement Answer in the poll, then explain your rationale below in the comments!

The three pathways are P-Cr, Glycolytic and Oxidative. The pentose phosphate pathway is a metabolic pathway parallel to glycolysis; it generates NADPH
CSCS Daily Practice Question #58
Excess postexercise oxygen consumption (EPOC) refers to which of the following? A. The anaerobic threshold after which oxygen is required B. The total oxygen used during the exercise bout C. The elevated oxygen uptake that continues after exercise ceases Answer in the poll, then explain your rationale below in the comments!

EPOC will typically happen after a strenuous training session to return the body to its resting state
