Definitions Flashcards
Autogenic inhibition
neural impulses that sense tension are greater than the impulsed that cause muscles to contract (relaxation)
Reciprocal inhibition
Muscle inhibition caused by a tight agonist which inhibits functional antagonist

What is reciprocal inhibition
contraction of a muscle combined with relaxation of its antagonist that allows movement
