For study material focused on what shows up on the exam check out Fitness Mentors Audio Lectures, Study Guide and Practice Tests for the NASM CPT Exam.  \nCHAPTER 1  \nNational Academy of Sports Medicine Code of Professional Conduct  \nProfessionalism:  \nProfessionalism should be practiced during all client interactions. Use effective communication and ensure a safe environment. Maintain good hygiene and wear appropriate clothing. Always refer your clients to a doctor when unknown conditions arise.  \nConfidentiality  \nSecure client documents and respect the confidentiality of your client conversations.  \nLegal and Ethical  \nObey all laws associated with your training location. Keep truthful records and take responsibility for their accuracy.  \nBusiness Practice  \nKeep adequate liability insurance and practice truth in appropriate advertising. maintain accurate financial and client records to pay all due taxes for 4 years. Don't get sexually involved with your clients.  \nScope of Practice  \nThis table shown in the book discusses the guidelines for health and fitness  \nprofessionals by displaying what a trainer should do if the client's health is of high-risk. What should not be done:  \n• Counsel Clients  \n• Diagnose Injuries or Conditions  \n• Physical therapy or rehabilitation  \n• Give detailed diets / meal plans  \nWhat should be done:  \n• Coach Clients  \n• Identify past injuries and limit your exercises for the injury  \n• Recommend client to speak and get medical advice from physician  \n• General Nutrition Knowledge and refer them to a dietitian or nutritionist for detailed diets  \nCHAPTER 2  \nNASM does not recommend knowing any of the material from Chapter 2 , but does ask about 3 questions from the chapter. Check out our Study Guide for the NASM CPT to see what you should focus on from this chapter.  \nCHAPTER 3  \nKnow all definitions throughout the chapter  \n• Biomechanics: the study of the action of external and internal forces on the living body, especially on the skeletal system.  \nLocation Terminology  \n• Superior: referring to a point higher or above  \n• Inferior: referring to a point lower or below  \n• Proximal: referring to a point closer to the origin of a limb  \n• Distal: referring to a point farther from the origin of a limb  \n• Anterior (or ventral): referring to a point nearer to the front of the body  \n• Posterior (or dorsal): referring to a point nearer to the back of the body  \n• Medial: referring to a point nearer to the mid-line of the body  \n• Lateral: referring to a point further from the mid-line of the body  \n• Contralateral: referring to a point on the opposite side of the body  \n• Ipsilateral: referring to a point on the same side of the body Planes of Motion, Axes and Joint Motions  \n• Anatomic position:  \nthe erect position of the body with the face and gaze directed anteriorly, the upper limbs at the side, and the palms of the hands directed anteriorly.  \n• Sagittal plane:  \na longitudinal plane that divides the body of a bilaterally symmetrical animal into right and left sections.  \n• Flexion: the act of bending a limb in the sagittal plane that typically decreases a joint angle.  \n• Extension: the act of extending a limb that typically increases a joint angle.  \n• Hyperextension: the extension of a part of the body beyond normal limits.  \n• Frontal Plane:  \na vertical plane at right angles to a sagittal plane, dividing the body intoanterior and posterior portions. Also called frontal plane .  \n• Abduction: the act of moving a limb in the frontal plane that typically moves the limb away from the mid-line of the body.  \n• Adduction: the act of moving a limb in the frontal plane that typically moves the limb back toward the mid-line of the body.  \n• Transverse  \nPlane: a plane across the body","cbCaiksm6XPjbJxM","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiksm6XPjbJxM","pdf",868764,48,"English","# Chapter 1\n## National Academy of Sports Medicine Code of Professional Conduct\n# Chapter 2\n# Chapter 3","[{\"question\":\"What key professionalism and client interaction rules does Chapter 1 emphasize?\",\"answer\":\"Chapter 1 stresses professionalism during all client interactions, including effective communication, maintaining a safe environment, practicing good hygiene, and using appropriate clothing.
