Sample Questions

Question 1
A Medical Exercise Specialist (MES) is most appropriately positioned to work with which type of client?
A client experiencing unstable angina at rest during the initial consultation
A client recovering in the intensive care unit two days after open-heart surgery
A client who has been medically discharged from cardiac rehabilitation and cleared to resume exercise
A client who reports new-onset chest pain and shortness of breath during the interview
Question 2
A client taking a beta-blocker for hypertension performs a graded exercise session. Which physiological response should the MES expect?
An exaggerated rise in heart rate at low workloads
An increase in maximal heart rate above age-predicted values
A blunted heart rate response at rest and during exercise
No effect on heart rate but a sharp rise in blood pressure
Question 3
According to the ACSM preparticipation screening algorithm, which factor most strongly indicates the need for medical clearance before a client begins moderate-intensity exercise?
The client is sedentary with no known disease and no signs or symptoms
The client is currently exercising regularly with no known disease and no symptoms
The client is sedentary, has no known disease, but reports occasional muscle soreness
The client is currently exercising and has known cardiovascular disease but no symptoms
Question 4
During a graded exercise test, a client's systolic blood pressure decreases by 12 mmHg below the standing resting value as workload increases. What is the most appropriate action?
Continue the test because a falling systolic pressure is a normal training adaptation
Increase the workload to confirm the reading before deciding
Continue but switch to measuring diastolic pressure only
Stop the test, as a drop in systolic blood pressure with increasing workload is an abnormal response
Question 5
A client with type 2 diabetes who uses insulin asks about exercising in the late afternoon. What is the most important precaution the MES should communicate?
Exercise should always be performed on an empty stomach to maximize fat use
Avoid all carbohydrate intake within four hours of exercise
Resistance training should be avoided entirely because it raises blood glucose
Monitor blood glucose before and after exercise and carry a fast-acting carbohydrate to treat hypoglycemia
