Chapter 16 Core Training

Question 1

Why is Core training important?

Answer 1

Core training help improve pair, enhance performance, increase injury resistance and accelerating injury rehabilitation

Question 2

What structure makes up the core?

Answer 2

The limbo pelvic hip complex that includes the local and global muscles

Question 3

Define local core muscle and their role

Answer 3

They attach near the vertebrae and provide dynamic control to the spine, limit excessive compression or shear and rotational forces of the spine segmenrs

Question 4

Define global muscles are their role

Answer 4

Superficial on the trunk. They act to move the trunk transfer load between upper and lower extremities and provide stability the spine in multiple segments

Question 5

What goes into designing a core training program

Answer 5

Both local and global muscles should both be trained to develop core stability and overall movement efficiency

Question 6

What does core strength do for the core?

Answer 6

It help maintain the natural curvatures of the spine during active and rest

Question 7

What are some abnormal spine curvatures

Answer 7

Kyphosis, lordosis and scoliosis

Question 8

What does Coreeee training improve in performance?

Answer 8

It is proven to help injury resistance by help be more coordinated between the trunk and lower extremities during high energy sport specific activities

Question 9

What variables are easily manipulated in core training

Answer 9

Volume, planes of motion, range of motion, speed of motion, volume and exercises modalities. Prevent changing too many variables at one time to ensure client mastery

Question 10

What is most important when starting a core training program?

Answer 10

Emphasize proprioceptive demand instead of adding external resistance. To emphasize quality of movement in LPHC

Question 11

What type of exercises to start off with for individuals

Answer 11

Start core training with little to no motion of the spine to target local core

Question 12

Whats the next level after no motion of spine for core training

Answer 12

You can now target local and global muscles of the core

Question 13

Whats the last step in core training?

Answer 13

The last step in core training will involve explosive movement of the trunk and extremities

Question 14

What are some local muscles

Answer 14

multifundus , transverse abdominis, diaphragm, pelvic floor, musculature, quadratics lumborum

Question 15

What are some global muscles

Answer 15

Rectus abdominals, external abdominal oblique’s, internal abdominal oblique’s, erector spinal, latissimus Doris, iliopsoas
