Q

Define neuromuscular efficiency

A

It’s the body ability to recruit the correct muscle to produce force, reduce force and dynamically stabilize the body structures in all three planes of motion. ( kinda like motor summation)

Q

Define self myo fascial

A

Like regular massaging either through rubbing or pressure paint. It’s thought to create a neurophysiological effect on myofascial tissues

How to do static stretching?

A

Passively take a muscle to the point of tension (pulling , stretching feeling) and hold for a minimum of 30 seconds

Q

How to do active stretching

A

Individual will use both agonist and synergistic to dynamically move a joint into ROM holding for 1-2 seconds and repeating 5-10 times

Q

What is a stretchreflex?

A

When a muscle is stretched too quickly, it responds with immediate contraction to stop the stretch

17
Q

What is altered, reciprocal inhibition

A

When an overactive agonist muscle decreases the neural drive towards its functional antagonist

18
Q

What are two responses that occur from myofascial rolling

A

Mechanical and neurophysiological response

19
Q

What is the principle that states soft tissue will model along the lines of stress?

A

Davis law
