MODULE THREE Flashcards
coach training of movement
target conditioning
eg type, intensity, nutrition, frequency
clinical type of movement
diagnose movement disorders
and prescribe movement that aid recovery
skill acquisition type of movement
isolate skills to improve
progression from unskilled to skilled
to study performance type of movement
categories aid analysis
motor skill classification
an act or task requiring movement for successful completion
why do we classify skills
to help explain common features of skills like endurance etc
3 parts of timing of muscle activity
- in phase movements
- anti phase movements
- coactivation
timing of muscle activity - In-Phase movements
bilateral (both sides of the body) homologous muscles groups contract synchronously eg. breaststroke
timing of muscle activity - Anti-Phase movements
muscles contract in alternating fashion eg. gait cycle
timing of muscle activity - Co-Activation
of muscles about joint/s: multiple muscles contacting together (synergy)
eg. limit of degree freedom
groups of muscles activated together to control joints
what are the 3 types of muscle contractions
- concentric
- eccentric
- isometric
concentric muscle contraction
muscle shortens during force application (eg. bicep curl)
eccentric muscle contraction
muscle lengthens during force application
eg. tricep extension
isometric
no change in length during force application
eg. holding and object
resistance vs endurance training
classification usually based on energy system
endurance = involves sustained effort
resistance = involves moving weight (eg. body weight)
open skill. definition
performed in a changing environment. movements are continuously adapted according to the surrounding context
eg, surfing
closed skill, defintion
performed in a predictable environment. movement can be planned ahead and self paced
eg. long jump
open skill exercise - open kinetic chain
the distal segment can move freely
segments isolated
- bicep curl (the hands are free to move)
closed skill exercise - closed kinetic chain
distal and proximal segments are fixed
functional and increase muscle recruitment
eg. press up (both aren’t free to move, hips, hands legs)
speed accuracy trade off
- the faster you move the less accurately you move
- aiming movements trade off between speed and accuracy
- important for design
- trainable
movements skill normally occur on a
continuum - bit of both; open and closed skills
cognitive skill
all motor skills includes these
eg, planning, scanning etc
non-contact forces relate to
mass and magnitude of attraction
if we want to change the state of motion of an object or body, we need to
apply a force, a push or a pull
types of muscles as they get smaller
tendon - muscle - muscle fascicle - muscle fibre - myofribril - sarcomere - actin/myosin
force is generated by ….
contraction of muscle, myosin pulling on the actin
what is it that muscle can only do
produce force, providing motion
more cross bridges =
more force, therefore the magnitude of force must be related to sarcomere length.
force from a muscles depends on ….
number of activated sarcomeres in the muscle, therefore is dependent on the muscle length
‘optimal muscle length’ - length/tension relationship
each muscle has an optimal length at which it can create the most force at, as they can generate the most pull/push on the actin/myosin
benchpress hard spot
at that one point on a bench press the load is outweighing the tension because the biceps are to short and the pectorals are too long, so their are not many binding sites, but once you get past this point their is again
muscle redundancy
their are multiple muscles around a joint - more muscles doing the same task
but each muscle has it own optimal muscles length angle
what is the mean optimal angle for elbow torque
86 degress
shape/girth and muscle force
muscles with more muscle fibres can produce more force but it also depends on CSA
muscle and what is needed for the load
force is actively generated by a muscle is related to the external loading of the muscle
if force increases the speed decreases and vice veras
force applied during a push is constant or not constant
not constant
morphology of a muscle
should reflect its use and is influenced by the range in which it is trained
muscles are strongest when tested
isometrically at a joint angle and is at its resting length and optimal moment arm
2 training perks for training muscles
- the greater the range of motion of the exercise the more muscles you will engage
- use high weight low velocity exercise to engage many muscle fibres and increase muscle strength
force formula
F=ma
we must apply a force to move an object/mass
work formula
W=Fxs
work is when we use force to displace mass
