Ch 14 Flashcards
What kind of stretching utilizes momentum and force production to have the joint go through full ROM?
Dynamic stretching
Process by which neural impulses that sense tension are greater than the impulses that cause muscles to contract, providing an inhibitory effect to muscle spindles.
Autogenic inhibition
What flexibility training is recommended for stabilization phase?
Static stretching and self-Myofascial Release
Purpose of corrective flexibility?
Improves muscle imbalances, ROM, and altered joint motion
Stretching performed to simulate normal, functional movement
Dynamic
If postural distortions are present, which type of stretching should be avoided?
Active isolate stretching
The Human Movement Systems way of finding the path of least resistance during movement
Relative flexibility
Why can SMR before a workout be beneficial
Break up fasciae adhesions
Muscles contraction simultaneously accompanied by its agonists relaxation
Reciprocal inhibition
What mechanism of action occurs during active isolated stretching
Reciprocal inhibition
Common mistake when using the Rating if Perceived Exertion(ROE) scale?
Focusing on just one isolated area of the body
How are active isolated stretches used in the OPT model?
Part of a warm up if no postural distortion patterns are present
When an agonist muscle is tight and causes decreased neural drive to its antagonist
Altered reciprocal inhibition
What type of flexibility does static stretching support?
Corrective
Tight agonist muscle impedes it’s antagonist muscle, causing muscular inhibition
Altered reciprocal inhibition
