Question | Answer |
---|---|
Abduction | A sideways motion away from Sagittal Midline of the Body occuring in the Coronal Plane |
Adduction | A sideway motion toward the sagittal midline of the body occuring in the Coronal Plane |
Supination | A form of rotation specific to the forearm or foot .Forearm supination occurs in the tranverse plane,when the distal end of the radius. Roll out ankle |
Alignment form | Narrowing the disparity between the body strenghts and weakness to achieve greater funtional strenghts |
Extension | Straigthen ,Elogation or an increase in the angle of joint occurs in the Sagital plane. Posterior to the anatomical position |
Articulation | MOdility of a joint between 2 bones. We are most concerned about the articulation of the spine that sequental spinal mobility in all planes of movements. |
Integration | The combo or consoladation of the muscusketal system full body integration is required most advanced Pilates. Foundation principals method. |
Acromian Process | A projection bone lateral edge of the scapula's spine which connects with clavicle to form the acromian clavical |
Multifidi | Also known as singular usage multifi;the originate at the sacrum tranverse process of C3 through L5 insert at the spinous process 24 vert. Stability also assits spinal extension and contra-lateral opposite rotation |
Rectus Abdominis | they assist in abdominal compression and flexion of the spine |
External Obliques | they assit in flexion when activated bilaterally side bending when activated unilaterally and controlateral rotation |
Transversus Abdominal | Fibers run laterally around the trunk and work to decrease diameters of abdominal compressions increase lordosis lumbar spine it stabilizer of the trunk |
Circumduction | A rotation or circular movement of a bone within joint (hip and Shoulder)envolving flexors,extensors adductors and abductors plane of movements |
Lateral | Away from the median (sagittal)plane |
Differentiation | Ability to stabilize fix the bone on one side of a joint while mobilizing the bone on the other side =Scapula-humeral differentiation movement of the humerus within shoulder print while maintaining scapular stability |
Sagittal Plane | Divides the body into symmetrical right and left halves Flexion and Extension |
Coronal Plane | Divides the body Anterior and posterior planes :movements Adduction,Abduction,Lateral flexion,Side bending |
Transverse Plane | Divides body into superior and inferior parts movements: Rotation and horizontal adductions /Abduction |
Name the Four Core Muscles | 1.Transversus Abdominals 2.Pelvic Floor 3.Multifidi 4.Diaphragm |
Supine | Laying on your backfluid |
Proximal | Closer to the trunk or major joint |
Prone | laying on your stomach |
Flexion | Bending Folding or curving movements of the joint Accurs in Sagittal plane anterior to the anatominal position Flexion -Spine-Hip and shoulder-Foot-Back |
Stabilization | Building strength in stabilizers of the pelvis,spine,shoulder(Major joints) Central idea of pulling limbs into torso adbominals into spine box concepts |
Dynamic Flowing Movement | Exercising with a sense of rhythum and flow which creates fluid functional coordinated movents Move to fast PROPRIOCEPTORS cannot absorb into quick enough to interpret and improve movements patterns or move to slow Proprioceptors do not receive |
Circumduction | A rotation or circular movement of a bone within joint(hip and shoulder)envolving flexors extensors,adductors and abductors-plane of movents |
Total Body Integration | Whole body experience when exercising every exercise becomes total body movement benefiting muscular skeletal and respiratory system at once the true manifestation of pilates Synergy,mind,Body and Spirit |
Rotation | Motion around a central axis occurring the tranverse plane , spiraling either inward or outward from center |
Differentiation | Ability to stabilize the bone (fix)on one side of a joint while mobilizing the bone on the other side |
