Q

What is the purpose of Local stabilization system?

A

Intervertebral and intersegmental stability and work to limit excessive compressive shear and rotational forces between spinal segments.Also aid in proprioception and postural control because of high density of muscle spindles.

What should a core training program do?

A

Manipulate plane of motion ,Range of motion & modalities. (Tubing stability ball medicine ball bosu ball aired pad etc)
Body position
Amount of control
Speed of execution
Amount of feedback
Specific acute training variables ( sets reps intensity tempo frequency)
Initially create a proprioceptively enriched ( controlled yet unstable training environment)- such as a stability ball.

Q

In core Stabilization training phase 1 should be designed to?

A

Involve little motion through the spine and pelvis.focusing on isometric contractions of the core. Activate local stabilization system.

Designed to improve Neuromuscular efficiency as intervertebral stability , focusing on drawing in and then bracing during the exercises.
Client spend 4 weeks at this level of core training.

Q

In core Strength training phase opt model 2,3,4 should be designed to?

A

Exercises should be involving more dynamic eccentric and concentric movements of the spine throughout a full range of motion while clients perform the activation techniques learned in core stabilization training( drawing in and bracing) ex : crunches,
Speed and neural demands are also progressed.
Clients spend 4 weeks at this level of core training. These exercises are designed to improve dynamic stabilization, concentric strength ( force production) eccentric strength ( force reduction) and neuromuscular efficiency of entire kinetic chain.

Q

What muscles connect with the deep longitudinal subsystem?

A

This system helps us walk and creates and transfers forces between the ground and the bodies core.

Peroneus longus
Anterior tibialis 
Biceps femoris sacrotuberous ligament 
Thoracolumbar fascia 
Erector spinea is
36
Q

What muscles does the Posterior oblique subsystem have?

A

Latissimus Dorsi
Contralateral gluteus Maximus
Thoracolumbar fascia ( the Bridge) for the cross body connection and create an x across the body ,stabilizes the trunk during gate. Helps continue to transfer and absorb ground forces.

37
Q

What muscles do the Anterior oblique subsystem include?

A

Internal and external obliques
Adductor complex
Hip external rotators

Cross body manner to help continue to transfer and absorb ground forces for functional movement just on the front side of the body. Help to stabilization during movement the muscles of the posterior and anterior oblique subsystems also interact in force couple relationships to produce rotation,flexion, extension-of the core.
