This document is a short quiz asking students to identify different types of muscle contractions - concentric, eccentric, and isometric. It asks students to circle the correct answer for each question identifying which type of contraction matches different exercises like bicep curls, planks, and crunches. The key is for students to understand that concentric contractions involve muscle shortening, eccentric involve lengthening, and isometric involve no movement but muscle activation.
