Corrective Exercise Flashcards
musculoskeletal evaluation can identify
strength imbalance, poor mobility, faulty activation patterns
corrective exercise
activities aimed at restoring or enhancing joint function via improvements in the neuromuscular and musculoskeletal systems
why corrective exercise should be a priority for those with known issues
1. biomechanical issues negatively affect proper ___, ____ and ____
2. mechanical deficiencies promote faulty _____ and ____ problems which lead to injury
3. ongoing postural changes affect ___ and ___ of joints reducing stability
4. Dysfunction presents obstacles to ___ and ____-oriented behaviors due to pain and discomfort
5. Biomechanical limitations can cause ___ and ____
6. Biomechanical dysfunction can predispose one to ___ and provide major setbacks
- posture, movement and exercise
- movement patterns and activation
- form, force closure
- health, performance
- physical discomfort, pain
- injury
exercise professionals first address obstacles that limit health improvements and increase the risk for injury before __________
aggressively pursuing fitness improvements
the level of dysfunction and its effects on movement efficiency, guide the _____ and identify _____
exercise selection process, priorities
a needs analysis is developed to formulate a
comprehensive training plan with starting points
prioritization model dictates that
areas/issues of greatest need are addressed as an initial priority in the training program before anything else
needs analysis
adaptation requirements for an individual determined by screening and evaluation protocols
needs analysis includes the ____, ____ and ___ of physiological needs
identification, organization, prioritization
primary limitations
issue is significant, may be painful, and impedes overall function and performance
secondary limitations
issue tends to reduce the ability to perform certain tasks but generally does not cause major discomfort
secondary limitations warrant
adjunct corrective work and attention to proper movement form
example of primary limitation
upper cross syndrome
example of secondary limitation
slight hamstring tightness
early phases of a corrective exercise program require high volume for adequate ____ and to improve ____
motor rehearsal
mobility
motor rehearsal
repeated exposure to a movement pattern which enhances efficiency over time due to increased neuromuscular proficiency
many clients are introduced to training via bodybuilding exercises rather than
those that improve mechanical function
programming exercises that unite the global systems can improve
mobility and force transfer across the kinetic chain
functional training should emphasized client-appropriate ___kinetic chain exercises, but ____ kinetic chain exercises still have a part to play in comprehensive development
closed, open
closed kinetic chain exercise
force is applied to a distally fixed position, forcing the body to stabilize segments across the kinetic chain
in closed kinetic chain exercise, the ___ moves around the ___
body, object
open kinetic chain exercise
force is applied to a moveable object around a distally fixed position, reducing stability requirements but allowing for more isolated loading
in open kinetic chain exercise, ____ moves around the ____
object, body
examples of closed kinetic chain exercise
military press, pull ups, push ups, deadlift, squat, lunge
