Why do sedentary, healthy adults require dietary proteins/amino acids to maintain good
health?
a. to maintain cellular structure and function
b. to prevent diseases such as cancer
c. to strengthen bones - ANSWER:
a. to maintain cellular structure and function
EXPLANATION:
Protein is the primary structural and functional component of every cell in the human
body. Dietary proteins are used for growth and development and to build and repair
cells; they serve as enzymes, transport carriers, and hormones. Therefore, dietary
protein is essential for maintaining health, reproduction, and cellular structure and
function. This applies to both active and sedentary individuals.

Which muscle is directly targeted during the pec-deck?
a. deltoids
b. pectoralis major
c. triceps brachii - ANSWER:
b. pectoralis major
EXPLANATION:
In the pec-deck movement, the idea is to create a long level out of your arms, therefore
putting more pressure on the primary and secondary muscles. The pec-deck directly
targets the pectoralis major, and does so in a way different than a bench press because
the elbows are unlocked throughout the whole range of motion. This length in the arms
makes the movement much harder. The deltoids and triceps brachii are assistance
muscles, working with the pectoralis major to create the movement.
