Halloween Quiz Flashcards
The ability of a joint to move freely through a full normal range of motion
Flexibility
Occurs when the person who is stretching supplies the force of the stretch
Active flexibility training
Occurs when a partner or stretching device provides the force for the stretch
Passive stretching
Performance of continuous, rapid bouncing movements at the end ROM where the muscle is at maximal length
Ballistic stretching
•Performance of a movement slowly into a stretched position holding it for approximately 30 seconds
•Involves relaxation and simultaneous lengthening of the stretched muscle
Static stretching
Alternating stretching and muscle contraction by a partner or using a fixed object resulting in activation of the Golgi tendon organs
Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF)
•Actively moving a limb through a full range of motion using functionally based movements
Dynamic stretching
Activity that raises total body temperature to prepare the body for vigorous exercise
Warm up
Resistance training: Load is provided by the body rather than by an external weight such as a barbell or the weight stack of a selectorized machine
Body weight training
Use of adjustable straps suspended from an overhead anchor point to move the body through a variety of exercises
Suspension training
The application of an external resistance, applied by a partner or personal trainer via manual muscle force, through a full or partial range of motion for an exercise
Manual resistance training
Entire arc of movement of a given joint
Range of motion
Partial dislocation of a joint
Subluxation
Permanent lengthening of soft tissue
Plastic elongation
Permanent lengthening of soft tissue
Elastic elongation
