what is a tendon?
fibrous connective tissue that attaches muscle to bone
what is a ligament?
fibrous connective tissue that attaches bone to bone
what is the purpose of cartilage?
located at the end of bones between joints. It protects bones by absorbing impact
meniscus
c-shaped pad of cartilage for shock absorption
reciprocal inhibition
when one muscle is contracting to perform a movement the other is relaxing
flexion def and joints
decreasing an angle at a joint
elbow, knee, hip
extension
straightening increasing the angle at the joint
knee, hip, elbow
hyperextension
extending a joint beyond normal movement
dorsi-flexion
bending foot upward, flexing foot
plantar flexion
pointing of the toes
pronations
turning palm downward
supernation
turning palm upward ie. freestyle
abduction
shoulder and hip
moving away from midline of body
adduction
moving toward the center of the body
rotation
shoulder and hip / moving around an axis
circumduction
moving in a circular pathway
skill aquistion
internal sensory information (visual, auditory, proprioception, touch)
FMS
fundamental movement skills and are important as a base
SSS
sport specific skills are complex skills for a specific sport that allow the athlete to improve in specific areas
