Exam 1 Flashcards
Prefixes (Intra, Extra, A, E)
Intra- inside
Extra- outside
A- Without, lacking
E- with
Suffix (ic, itis, ia)
-ic belonging to
-itis, inflammation
-ia, condiiton
Combining Forms (cardio, ortho)
Cardi/o , heart
Arth/o, joint
Eccentric
muscle contraction that moves outward away from center of muscle (lengthening)
Ec- outward
centr/o= dominant part
ic= pertaining to
Concentric
muscle contraction that moves toward (shorterning)
Con= with
centr/o= dominant part
ic= pertaining to
Isometric
Iso= equal
metr/o= measurment
ic= pertaining to
contraction where the measurement of the muscle is equal throughout the contraction (muscle stays same length)
Descriptors of human movement
Bipedal= Bi 2, Pedal feet
Contralateral= Contra pposite, lateral side
Movement development
Cervical rotation
Naval radiation
homologous
homolateral
contralateral CHECK SLIDES WEEK 2
Saggital plane
flexion and extension
specifici joints Dorsiflexiton and plantar flextion
ex; back squat, bicep curl
Frontal plane
abduction and adduction
specific joints = radial deviation and ulnar deviation
lateral raises, side lunge
Transverse
rotation (axial medial, lateral)
forearm pronation and supination
russian twist
Axes and movement
Named axis is parallel to named plane
sagittal plane occurs around the frontal axis
frontal plane in the saggital axis
transverse plane in vertical axis
Basics of human movementi
A joint provides a place that is moveable; a muscle
or it’s tendon must cross over the joint to affect movement at that joint. The muscle has a
proximal attachment and a distal attachment. The joint will have a specific ROM determined by
the bone structure plus soft tissue (ligaments, tendons, muscle, adipose tissue, joint capsule
etc
Statics
Dynamics
static= aspects of nonmoving (posture, alignment, static balance)
Dynamic= aspects of moving body (walking, dynamic balance, kinetics and kinematics
Kinesiology
study of human movement
