Q

Frailty barrier

A

When 70% loss of function has occurred

  • a lack of activity to counteract, it happens much faster in all populations
  • PT must have realistic expectations, motivate pt, and be able to edu on the negative effects so pt understands importance of moving
  • age + injury = faster decline

Q

Measuring strength

A
  • MMT (0-5 scale)
  • Cable tensiometry: mechanical measurement of either pull or push, force in lbs but quick movements gives inaccurate number
  • dynamometer: measures isometric contraction
  • isokinetics: data include force production, torque, power, and work. $$ used in research mainly and can isolate specific movement or mm group for entire range for both concentric and eccentric

A

Ability to perform repetitive or sustained activities over a prolonged period of time

Q

SAID

  • to increase mm power the exercise program should consist of interventions that increase work demands while decreasing the time that work is accomplished

Q

Endurance vs strength training

A
  • strength training program: the amount of external resistance applied to the mm is incrementally and progressively increased
  • endurance training: emphasis is placed on increasing the time a mm contraction is sustained or the number of reps performed rather than the amount of external resistance

Q

Neural adaptations

A
  • initial rapid gain in tension-generating capacity of skeletal mm is due to neural responses (mm memory)
  • increase recruitment in the number of motor units firing as well as an increased rate and synchronization of firing (coordination)
  • some cross over with training of unaffected side to affected side
  • bilat exercises or start ex on unaffected side to get understanding
  • see overall improvements in motor learning

Q

Skeletal mm adaptations: hypertrophy

A

Increase in the size of individual mm fibers due to increased myofibrillar volume

  • increased cross-sectional area and increased protein (actin and myosin) synthesis and decreased protein degradation
  • usually occurs after 4-8+ weeks of CONSISTENT training, responsible for secondary growth gains
  • IIB mm fibers appear to increas in size most readily with resistance training
    • occurs in 6-8 weeks with mod resistance training and 2-4 with high

Q

Skeletal mm adaptations: hyperplasia

A
  • not highly accepted theory
  • a portion of the increase in mm size that occurs with heavy training is due to mm fiber splitting.
  • seems insignificant if real

Q

Vascular and metabolic adaptations

A

With high intensity, low volume resistance training, there is a relative decrease in capillary bed density due to an increase in the number of myofilaments per fiber

Q

Mm fiber type adaptation

A
  1. Type I: slow twitch (endurance and postural mm)
  2. Type II: fast twitch (power, strength, and speed)
    - transformation of type IIB to IIA is common with endurance training and early weeks of heavy resistance training, making them more existent to fatigue. (Little to no evidence that type II become type I with training)
    * *first activated slow - fast IIA - fast IIB

Q

Adaptation of connective tissue

A

Increased collagen content =

  • increased tendon and ligament outs strength
  • connective tissue in mm thickens
  • bone density increased (9-12+ months)
21
Q

Training principles

A
  1. Overload
  2. Progressive
  3. Specificity
  4. SAID
  5. DOMS
  6. Reversibility
22
Q

Overload principle

A

For performance and porphological change, a stimulus must progress and exceed the normal functional capabilities of the mm trained

23
Q

Progressive overload

A

Once the body adapts to the stress, intensity of the stimulus must be increased to maintain overload and continue adaptations

24
Q

Specificity of training

A

There are specific and predictable adaptations that occur at specific motor units that are trained
- train what you want to improve

25
Q

DOMS

A

Delayed onset muscle soreness

  • normal!
  • due to skeletal mm microdamage, NOT lactic acid build up
  • generalized pain, low grade ache
  • low intensity exercise, ice, hydration, and anti-inflammatory meds can help to relieve soreness
  • lasts 24-72 hours, peaks 24-48 hours
  • eccentric > concentric
26
Q

Reversibility principle

A

Adaptive changes are transient unless training-induced improvements are regularly used or unless the individual participants in maintenance program

  • within 1-2 weeks
  • transfer training of unaffected side?
27
Q

1 RM

A

It is the maximum amount of weight one can lift in a single repetition for a give exercise, moving though a full ROM, with proper form and without compensation

  • used as guidance to parameters
  • not functional and not accurate cu most ppl need training to engage proper mm and coordination
28
Q

Mode of exercise

A

Multi-factorial

  • type of mm action
  • type of strengthening exercise
  • type of resistance
  • open vs closed chain exercise
29
Q

Isometric contraction

A

No change in mm length

  • usually used in early phase of rehab
  • stabilization and early rehab strengthening exercises
30
Q

Concentric contraction

A

Mm fibers shortening

  • usually 1-2”
  • usually used in later phases of rehab
31
Q

Eccentric contraction

A

Mm fibers are elongating (control)

  • 3-4” contraction
  • eccentric strength training will carry over to concentric phase
  • overuse injuries respond well to therapy
  • reduce weight; most control, less energy
  • prepare for activities
32
Q

Isotonic

A

Constant resistance though ROM, speed is variable strengthening exercise

33
Q

Isokinetic

A

Contact speed, variable resistance strengthening exercises

34
Q

Manual resistance

A

+ easily modified, good for early rehab, when movement needs to be controlled, modified in trining for functional activity
- limited by strength of clinician and not measurable

35
Q

Open chain exercise

A

Distal segment moves freely in space

- used to strengthen and isolate specific, weakened mm prior to applying a WB load

36
Q

Closed chain exercise

A

Distal portion of exercising system is fixed

  • motion at one joint will produce motion at all other joints in the system in a predictable manner
  • good for strengthening connective tissues as well. More benefit on entire body, including neuro
37
Q

Duration of exercise TO GAIN STRENGTH

A

No in time increment but reps, sets, and rest time.

  • 6- reps
  • 2-3 sets
  • 2-5 min rest between sets
  • 80% 1 rep max
  • usually used in later rehab phases for power, speed, agility (sport specific)
38
Q

TO GAIN STRENTH AND HYPERTROPHY

A
  • 6-12 reps (clinically 8-12)
  • 3-4 sets
  • 30-120 sec rest
  • 70-80% 1RM
  • *do not give ranges, give firm number
39
Q

TO GAIN ENDURANCE

A
  • 12-20+ reps
  • can also use time (hold)
  • 3+ sets
  • 20-30 sec rest
  • 50-70% 1RM
  • usually what we train first in early phases of rehab
  • distal strength by proximal endurance
40
Q

Progression of strength training activities

A
  • if 2 reps over goal on 2 consecutive treatments, PROGRESS
  • always increases reps before weight
  • once goal achieved, increase weight by 5-10% and decrease reps
41
Q

Common errors

A
  1. Valsalva
  2. INADEQUATE REST (increases inflammatory response and decreases healing)
  3. Progressing too quickly
  4. IMPROPER FORM
42
Q

Precautions

A
  • local fatigue
  • general fatigue
  • disease fatigue (increase rest or decrease resistance)
  • osteoporosis or fractures (change type or placement of resistance)
  • avoid over work (lower motor neuron disease may not feel fatigue observe it)
43
Q

Contras

A
  • cleared for exercise
  • uncontrolled HTN, arrythmias, severe CHF, severe myopathy, severe carditis (unless referred by physician)
  • recent MI or CABG must wait 6-8 weeks
  • severe joint or mm pain during - 24+ hrs after (decrease resistance or eliminate exercise)
  • increased inflammation from previous visit
