Final Flashcards
Force output of muscle without regard to time
Muscle strength
Force output with regard to time
Muscle power
Performance of low-load activity over a prolonged period of time
Muscle endurance
Heavy load & low reps
Muscle strength
Isokinetic- force production at speeds greater than 90 degrees/ sec
Muscle power
Isokinetic- force production at speed less than 90 degrees/sec
Muscle strength
Low load & high reps
Muscle endurance
Describe isotonic exercise
same “tone”
“Load” is constant
Velocity is variable
“Load”-based exercise
Parameters-To improve muscle strength
Reps- 6-12
Sets- 1-6
Parameters- to improve muscle endurance
Reps- 40-50
Sets- 3-5
Describe isokinetic exercise
Same “motion”
“Velocity” is constant
Load is accommodating & selectable
“Velocity”-based exercise
Forms of isometric exercise
Muscle setting
Stabilization
Multiple angle isometrics
Force development in the muscle in which muscle fibrils shorten in length
Concentric
Describe isometric exercise
Same “length”
Velocity is constant
Load is accommodating & selectable
Velocity-based exercise
Shortening muscle activity
Concentric
Force development in the muscle in which the muscle fibrils increase in length
Eccentric
Proximal & distal attachment sites move closer to each other
Concentric
Lengthening muscular activity
Eccentric
Positive work
Concentric
Proximal & distal attachment sites move away from each other
Eccentric
At risk patients for Valsalva Maneuver
Coronary artery disease MI Cerebrovascular disorders HTN Neurosurgery Eye surgery Intervertebral disk pathology
Negative work
Eccentric
Precautions or Resistance Exercise
Valsalva Maneuver
Substitution
Overtraining
Exercise-induced muscle soreness
- Increases intra-abdominal & intra-thoracic pressure
- Forces blood from heart
- Causes abrupt temporary increase in arterial blood pressure
