Q

Endurance runners have more of what muscle fibers

A

Type 1

17
Q

Sprinters have more of what muscle fibers

A

Type 2

18
Q

Agonist muscles

A

Produce similarly directed movements

19
Q

Antagonist muscles

A

Oppositely directed movements

20
Q

Isometric contraction

A

force generated at constant length

Lifting a weight

21
Q

Isotonic contraction

A

Internal force exceeds the external force
Muscle shortens at constant velocity
Lifting an immovable object

22
Q

Concentric movement

A

Isotonic contraction in shortening direction

ex. Lifting a weight

23
Q

Eccentric contraction

A

Lengthening of contraction muscle

ex. after kicking a ball, muscles tighten to stop your leg from moving forward

24
Q

Flexion

A

Typically decrease joint angle

25
Q

Extention

A

increase joint angle

26
Q

Moment arm definition

A

perpendicular distance from an axis to the line of application of force

27
Q

Torque equation

A

Force x movement arm

28
Q

How is range of motion/movement arm related to insertion of a muscle on a joint

A

Insertion closer to joint= larger range of motion, lower movement arm

29
Q

How does torque change as joint angle changes

A

The movement arm is small when arm is fully flexed/extended = smaller torque
