CSCS Practice Question #234
SCENARIO: A bodybuilder with significant shoulder and chest muscle mass reports difficulty achieving full elbow extension when arms are behind the back. What explains this ROM limitation, and how should it be addressed?
A. The muscle is too strong; reduce training volume to maintain smaller muscle size
B. This is a permanent limitation that cannot be improved with flexibility training
C. Increased muscle bulk may physically limit ROM by preventing close body segment positioning; address through stretching exercises emphasizing full ROM and ensuring resistance exercises are performed through available ROM
Answer in the poll, then explain your rationale below in the comments! I'll follow up with my breakdown of the question after enough people have responded.
From Chapter 14: Warm-Up and Flexibility Training
