Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation

39
Q

What is reciprocol inhibition?

A

Neurological co-activation of contractions at a joint

40
Q

What causes an ankle sprain limp?

A

Lack of dorsi flexion, peroneal prevents inversion

A

Periods of weight bearing, passive mobalisation and RICE

42
Q

Whats the benefit of peroneal strengthening?

Improves the strength and control of the muscles, eccentric with proprioception

43
Q

Why is biomechanics used in protective equipment development?

A

British kite mark (BS)

46
Q
A
47
Q

What are some well know standard agencies?

A

ANSI, ASTM and DIN (American national standards institution, American society for testing and materials, Germany

48
Q

49
Q

What are the 3 main causes of injury?

A

Training, anatomical alignment and equiptment

50
Q

What is the cause of injury dependent on?

A

Magnitude, rate of application and frequency

51
Q

How does biological loading affect injury risk?

A

Over/under loading can cause varus or valgus guiding forces incorrectly through the joint increasing injury risk

52
Q

Whats the role of cushioning in shoes?

A

Shock absorption, slower rate of application, reduces the effect of the force

53
Q

How does cushioning vary in shoes?

A

The level of cushioning can vary as well as the positioning - heel, sole, medial or arch support

54
Q

How can shoe performance be impacted?

A

Wet shoes force absorption decreases, after 400km loss of 30-50% of support

55
Q

What are some features shoe manufactures use as cushioning?

A

EVA, patented options (air bubbles), rear foot control, sole density and orthotics

56
Q

How does midsole absorption affect force outcome?

A

quicker rate of ankle pronation, bigger leaver, measured in durometers

57
Q

How is peak impact force affected by the 3 foot strikes?

A

Isn’t affected, acceleration is

58
Q

What are the 3 types of footstrike?

A

Forefoot, rearfoot and midfoot

59
Q

When did wearing shinpads in football become compulsory?

A

1990

60
Q

What percentage of players wear shinpads in training?

A

30%

61
Q

What percentage of football injuries occur because of inferior footwear?

A

13.5%

62
Q

What equation links acceleration and mass?

A

F=ma

63
Q

Whats the replationship between accelration and mass in the neck?

A

Proportional when lax, when tensed larger mass has a larger force

64
Q

What is the brain surrounded by?

A

Cerebral spinal fluid (CSF)

65
Q

Whats the role of CSF in collisions?

A

To distribute the force

66
Q

How does rotation effect impact?

A

CSF is uneven and the brain delayed, creates a shearing force that causes damage

67

A

External obliques, erector spinae, latissimus dorsi, gluteal, adductors, hamstings

78
Q

What is the importance of the core in movement?

A

Transfers force from lower to upper, providing stability of the 2 extremities

79
Q

What movement does the external obliques cause?

A

With flexion of spinal column allows for individual twisting

80
Q

What movement does the erector spinae cause?

A

Alllows for difference in lumbar and thoracic movement

81
Q

What movement does the latissimus dorsi cause?

A

Rotatory movement of spine when arms are fixed

82
Q

What movement does the gluteals cause?

A

When feet touch the floor, pelvis moves forward

83

When feet are touch ground pelvis drops

84
Q

What movement does the hamstrings cause?

A

Extension of pelvic girdle when legs touching the ground
