25
Active kneeling hip flexor stretch is an example of:
Reciprocal inhibition
26
General adaptation syndrome
How the body responds and adapts to stress
27
Alarm reaction
Initial alarm to a stressor, activated protective processes in the body
28
Resistance development
Body increases functional capacity to adapt to a stressor, once adapted, the increased stress is needed to produce a new response
29
Exhaustion
Stressor is too much or lasting too long for systems to handle. Causes breakdown or injury
30
Principle of specificity
The body will specifically adapt to the type of demand placed on it
31
Mechanical specificity
The weight and movements placed on the body
32
Neuromuscular specificity
The speed of contractions and exercise selection
33
Metabolic specificity
The energy demand placed on the body
34
Active listening
Having an attitude and genuine interest in seeking a clients perspective
35
Reflecting
Repeating back to the client the meaning of way was just heard.
36
Summarizing
Series of reflections to show depth of listening

38
Informational support
Directions advice and suggestions from the professional
39
Companionship support
The availability of family and friends to exercise together
40
Smart acronym
``` Specific Measurable Attainable Realistic Timely ```
41
Attainable
Challenging but not to extreme
42
Realistic
Must be something the client is both willing and able to work toward
43
Speed
Ability to move the body in one intended direction as fast as possible. Stride rate X stride length
44
Agility
Ability to accelerate decelerate stabilize and change direction quickly while maintaining proper posture
45
Quickness
Ability to react and change body position with maximum rate of force production
46
Reciprocal inhibition
Muscle on one side of joint relax to allow muscle on other side to contract
47
Type 1 muscle fiber
Slow twitch Increased oxygen Smaller Produce less force Stabilization
48
Type 2 muscle fiber
Fast twitch ``` Decreased oxygen Larger Produce more force Quick to fatigue Force and power ```
