Stretch it by using the breath and holding posture longer.

27
Q

Hinge joint

A

Knee, elbow

28
Q

Ball & socket joint

A

Hip, shoulder

29
Q

Condyloid

A

Fingers, wrists. Moves on 2 planes

31
Q

Axiel skeleton

A

Cranium/ribcage/spine/sternum

32
Q

Appendicular skeleton

A

Everything else than the axiel skeleton

33
Q

S.I. Joints

A

Sacro-illiac joints

2 of them

Often times sore/painful from irregular movementβ€” it yanks on the nerves around the joints

34

41
Q

Tailbone

A

Coccyx

3-5

42
Q

Muscles quicker to heal than tendons

A

Tendons quicker to heal than ligaments

43
Q

Never sit on joints

A

Use muscles around joints to protect ligaments

44
Q

Number one teaching rule

A

Co-contraction: use muscles on either side of joint to protect it!

45
Q

Symmetrical

A

Both sides are doing the same thing

46
Q

Neutral

A

Symmetrical- toes are pointed in the same direction as frontal hipbones

A symmetrical -front foot is pointed in the same direction as shoulders

47
Q

Anatomical planes (pelvis)

A

Sagittal: front and back, flexion and extension

Coronal: side to side, abduction (away) and adduction (into)

Transverse : rotation

Create sequences that balance all planes for a flow.

48
Q

External shoulder rotation

A

Always, unless binding the shoulders and arms

49
Q

Anterior longitudinal ligament

A

Frontal Spinal ligament that keeps discs in place & vertebrae in place

50
Q

Posterior longitudinal ligament

A

Back spinal ligament that is weaker than the anterior ligament. Can herniate a disc by forward bending (stretches the ligament)…. Back bending much safer

51
Q

Transverse processes

A

Stick out to the side of the spine (connect to ribs)

52
Q

Spinous processes

A

Part of the vertebrae that you can touch on your spine/back

53
Q

Kegels

A

Engage pelvic muscles, which also engages transverse abdominous

54
Q

Hip flexors

A

Common/big ones are the psoas muscles

55
Q

Lordosis

A

Curving in (cervical)

56
Q

Kyphosis

A

Curving out (thoracic and sacrum)

57
Q

Protruding vertebrae on the neck

A

C7

58
Q

Serratus anterior

A

Muscle that connects upper ribs to scapula and needs to be strong in order to protract or move out the shoulder blades for an inversion

59
Q

Eccentric

A

Long/lengthened

60
Q

Concentric

A

Pulling/tightening in
