Q

What is the best way to functionally train the body?

A

To train the body the same way it moves. You can do this through favoring integration over isolation - which means training movements not solely muscles.

46
Q

Why is it helpful for a GFI to become familar with the names of major bones of the body?

A

A GFI can reference them when providing verbal anatomical and alignment cues (more in chap 8) . Using the right names makes you look more knowledgeable and also helps educate participants about their body.

47
Q

During verbal instruction, GIFs should seek to use a variety of cues - not just one style. IE: Don’t just do anatomical cues.

A
48
Q

In regards to the muscular system, what should a GFI know?

where a muscle is located and what function it serves

49
Q

What is the name when the angle between any two bones decreases?

A

Joint Flexion

50
Q

1)What is Joint Flexion?
2) When does Joint Flexion typically occur?

A

1 - Joint flexion is when the angle between any two bones decrease.
2 - Typically occurs as a result of a muscle pulling on its attachments and shortening

51
Q

1 - What is Joint Extension?
2 - When does Joint Extension typically occur?

A

1 - Joint extension is when the angle between the joints increases
2 - Usually the result of the muscle on the fixed side of the joint lengthening while the opposing muscle on the other side of the joint pulls and shortens.

52
Q

What does the prefix ‘hyper; mean?

A

excessive.

IE: Hyperflexion occures when a limb or part of the body is flexed beyond the normal range of motion (ROM)

53
Q

What does ROM stand for?

A

Range of Motion

54
Q

_________ occurs when a limb or part of the body is flexed beyond the normal range of motion (ROM)

A

Hyperflexion

55
Q

_________ occurs when there is movement at a joint into a position beyond the joints normal range of extension in the anatomical position.

A

Hyperextension

56
Q

Two important concepts of Hyperextension happen commonly where?

A

Elbows and Knees.

1- Elbows - Indoor cycle - many participants hyperextend their elbows as they prop themselves up on the handlebars producing tension and instability throughout the core.

2 - Knees - In muscular training, many participants hyperextend their knees when they return to the top position of a squat.

57
Q

The position of the body in space or the orientation of the body to the environment in reaction to the force of gravity.

A position that maintains balance with maximum stability, minimal anatomicals and minimal energy consumption

A

Posture

58
Q

During physical activity, the body experiences movement changes that trigger a set of interactions among which 5 Systems? These 5 systems work together to control and maintain posture.

A

1 - Musculoskeletal system
2 - Visual System
3 - Vestibular System
4 - Integumentary System
5 - Central Nervous System

59
Q

What is the role of the following 5 Systems:
1 - Musculoskeletal system
2 - Visual System
3 - Vestibular System
4 - Integumentary System
5 - Central Nervous System

A

protect the supporting structures of the body in a state of musculoskeletal balance.

60
