Ch 14 Flashcards
Delayed onset muscle soreness
the discomfort 1-3 days prior to working out
Pain or discomfort often felt 24 to 72 hours after intense exercise or unaccustomed physical activity.
Self-Myofascial Release (SMR)
Compresses myofascial (mechanical) or stimulates the mechanoreceptors / nociceptors which we hold for 30-seconds and will relax a muscle due to autogenic inhibition
Techniques used for treating and breaking up adhesions of the fascia and the surrounding muscle tissues;
examples include foam rolling or self-massage.
Do not foam roll these people with:
Hypertension
Cancer
Osteoporosis
Open Wounds
Conditions
Static Stretching
Reciprocal inhibition 1-3 sets for 30 seconds
Active Isolate Stretching
1-2 second holds via Reciprocal inhibition
1–3 sets; Hold each stretch for 1–2 seconds and repeat for 5–10 repetitions
Dynamic Stretching Reciprocal Inhibition
1 set
10–15 repetitions
3–10 exercises
Prisoner Squats
With arms behind the head and feet approximately shoulder-width apart, perform a bodyweight squat. As a progression to this exercise, add a calf raise at the top position after performing the squat.
Multiplanar Lunges with reach
Perform the lunge in all three planes of motion: sagittal, frontal, and transverse. In other words, perform a forward lunge, lateral lunge, and turning lunge.
Lunge with Rotation
Perform a forward lunge with trunk rotation toward the outside portion of the forward leg. This exercise can be performed with or without an external load, such as a medicine ball.
INVERTED HURDLER’S STRETCH
KNEE
LOW BACK PAIN
high stress on the inside of the knee (medial collateral ligament) and may cause pain and stress on the patella (kneecap) (right knee in Figure 14-18).
This stretch should not be performed by anyone with a history of knee or low-back pain or injury
PLOW
Neck and Spine
Neck or back injury
Avoid with hypertension
places high stress on the neck and spine
Clients with a history of neck or back injury should not perform this stretch owing to the high stress it places on these structures.
Avoid with clients with high blood pressure
SHOULDER STAND
Neck, Shoulder, Spine
Hypertension
neck or spine injury
high stress on the neck, shoulders, and spine.
It should be avoided in patients with hypertension or any history of neck or spine injury
STRAIGHT-LEG TOE TOUCH
Low-back
Herniated discs
Stress on knee
This position may place the vertebrae and the cartilage discs in the low-back under high stress.
Any client or patient with a history of herniated discs or nerve pain that runs down the back of the leg should avoid this stretch.
place high stress on the ligaments of the knee.
ARCHING QUADRICEPS
KNEECAP
high stress on the kneecap and the other tissues on the front of the knee joint. Any client with a history of knee injury should avoid this stretch.
Relative Flexibility
The process in which the body seeks the path of least resistance during functional movements.
Gastrocnemius ROM
Sagittal - Must have proper extensibility to allow for proper dorsiflexion of ankle
Frontal - Must have proper extensibility to allow for proper inversion of calcaneus (heel bone)
Transverse - Must have proper extensibility to allow for proper internal rotation of femur (thigh bone)
Bicep Femoris ROM
Sagittal - Must have proper extensibility to allow for proper hip flexion, knee extension
Frontal - Must have proper extensibility to allow for proper hip adduction
Transverse - Must have proper extensibility to allow for proper hip and knee internal rotation
Latissimus Dorisi ROM
Sagittal - Must have proper extensibility to allow for proper shoulder flexion
Frontal - Must have proper extensibility to allow for proper shoulder abduction
Transverse - Must have proper extensibility to allow for proper external shoulder rotation
Altered Reciprocal Inhibition
Occurs when an overactive agonist muscle decreases the neural drive to its functional antagonist.
For example, an overactive hip flexor complex (e.g., iliopsoas, rectus femoris, tensor fascia latae) would decrease neural drive to the hip extensor complex (e.g., gluteus maximus and gluteus medius; Mills et al., 2015).
Synergist Dominance
The neuromuscular phenomenon that occurs when synergists take over function for a weak or inhibited prime mover (agonist).
In other words, if the gluteal muscles are underactive and not able to produce force effectively, other muscles, such as the hamstrings, are now recruited more than usual to assist in performing hip extension. The result of synergistic dominance is faulty movement patterns leading to soft tissue and joint dysfunction and eventual injury (such as hamstring strains).
Davis Law
States that soft tissue models along the line of stress.
What is an example of a superset in phase 5 of the OPT model ?
Bench press into a med ball throw
Which of the following states that prolonged golgi tendon organ stimulation inhibits the muscle spindle of the same muscle?
autogenic inhibition
The tendency of the body to seek the path of least
resistance during functional movement patterns is
called:
Relative flexibility
A tight psoas decreasing neural drive of the
gluteus maximus is an example of what?
Altered reciprocal inhibition
