Chapter 6 Lesson 1 Flashcards
intermuscular coordination
The ability of different muscles in the body to work together to allow coordination of global and refined movements
ligament dominance
Decreased lower extremity frontal plane stability, usually evidenced by valgus and varus positioning, causing connective tissues to be the limiting factor of end range of motion control
quadriceps dominance
Decreased strength or recruitment of the posterior chain musculature relative to anterior chain musculature
limb to limb asymmetries
Limb-to-limb asymmetries in neuromusculoskeletal control or muscle recruitment
kinematic adjustments
Small alterations in movement pattern execution made in response to repetitive or novel performance conditions.
