Question | Answer |
---|---|
Abduction? | middle deltoid functions as the prime mover for shouluder |
adductor function? | stabilize the thighduring lunges |
adductor muscles? | pectineus, adductor magnus, adductor minimus, adductor longus, adductor brevis, gracilis |
agonist | primer mover - muscles that causes motion |
antagonist | muscles with the potential to oppose the action off the agonist |
anterior hip muscles | iliopsoas, rectus femoris, sartorius, tensar fascia latae, pecineus |
anterior muscles acting at the ankle? | dorsiflexors: anterior tibialis, extensor digitorium longus, extensor hallucis longus |
anterior pelvic tilt | contraction of the iliopsoas/lower back muscle |
anterior shoulder girdle muscles | perctoralosis major, serratus anterior |
aponeurosis: | insertion point of the external obliques: forms outer layer of connective tissue sheath that covers the rectus abdominis |
what is the best way to avoid knee injury during squats? | limit degree of flexion to 90 degrees |
what is the body's center of gravity? | point at which mass in concentrated and its balanced in all planes |
Cause of wieght training overuse & stress injuries? | reliance on momentum to lift weights with muscles lacking the strenth to stop the momentum |
cause of muscular imbalance? | moving, standing, sitting, workng habits |
classes of levers? | 1.long level arm: whellbarrow; motive force far from axis can lift large object with small force 2. lever arm" equal distance motive and resistive force 3. the body short lever arm _ must use lots of force to lift small reistance |
co-contraction: | when agonist and antagonist contract together & a joint must be stabilized |
concentric- | muscles shortens and overcomes resistance ( ex. Biceps curl UP) |
eccentric - | muscle action that involves lengthening as tension is created. muscle lengthens and produces forces or returns to is resting lenth from shortened position (ex biceps curl down);External force -Gravity |
exercise analysis | 1. Id joint movement 2. movement speed and resistance 3 Gravity? 4. ID muscles causing Joint movement 5. contraction type. 6. movers and stabilizers 7. movement achieve goal of exercise? 8? does exercise train primary function of the muscle |
exercise analysis(2) | 9. does movement compromise safety of the other body parts? are non moving joints stabilzed/ neutral ? 10/ how can the exercise be adapted to meet client needs (more or less difficult) |
External Hip Rotator Muscles? | beneath the gluteus maximus - top to bottom: Piriformis, gemelli superior; qburator internus, gemelli inferior, obturator externus, quadratus femors |
external hip rotators function? | rotate hip externally keep femoral head in socket stabilize and alighn the hip |
External Obliques? | the most superficial sbdominal muscles. |
