Practice prompts based on occupational tasks
These Applyace practice prompts use O*NET tasks for exercise physiologists. They are not reported employer questions. If you have not done a task, explain your approach and learning needs instead of inventing experience.
1. Explain exercise program or physiological testing procedures to participants.
Describe a real example of this task. What was your responsibility, and what happened?
2. Develop exercise programs to improve participant strength, flexibility, endurance, or circulatory functioning, in accordance with exercise science standards, regulatory requirements, and credentialing requirements.
How did you decide which approach or tools to use? Explain the tradeoffs.

What could go wrong during this task? Describe how you would check your work.
4. Provide emergency or other appropriate medical care to participants with symptoms or signs of physical distress.
