Lecture 1 Flashcards
3 components of prevention
- Reducing of force
- Strengthening of body part
- screening of participants
Preventive medicine
promote health and well-being and prevent disease, disability and death.
Reduction of force
protective équipement, balanced opponents, taping, rules enforcement, facilities, technique development
strengthening of body parts
when, what strength vs endurance, how
Screening of participants
Why- determine if fit, establish athletes health
3 different types of preventative medicine
- Primary prevention
- secondary prevention
- tertiary prevention
Primary prevention
- before injury
- warm up
- stretching
- training
Secondary prevention
- After injury
- antibiotic
- rehab
- brace/taping
Tertiary prevention
- things we do when original function cannot be restored
- reduce long term impairment
- improve quality of life
importance of preparation
Decrease incidence and severity of injuries
how often, how serious
C.O= H.R x S.V
Cardiac output = heart rate x stroke volume.
Strength training
lv 1 : Isometric ( muscle contract but not move).
lv 2: concentric (shortening of muscle)
lv3: eccentric (lengthening of muscle)
Gross vs Fine motor skill
Gross: bigger muscle group
Fine: more detail
Open vs close skills
Open: environment is constantly changing and athlete has to react. e.g Soccer
Close: not influenced by others. E.g Golf, archery
Protective measures
absorbs energy
disperse energy
deflects
limits excess movement
