Q

Forced production

A

How hard fibres contract

17
Q

Mitochondria

A

Power house of body, provides energy to muscle fibres using oxygen

18
Q

Capillary density

A

Provide opportunity for oxygen to diffuse into muscles

19
Q

Oxidative capacity

A

Muscles capacity to use oxygen when working

20
Q

Glycolytic capacity

A

Body’s capacity to use glycogen when working

21
Q

Major fuel

A

Preferred fuel source the muscle likes to use

22
Q

Hyperplasia

A

The muscle fibres split to increase their numbers

23
Q

Slow twitch fibre (type 1)

A

Slow contractile speed of muscle fibres, energy source is fats, aerobic

24
Q

Fast oxidative twitch fibre (type 2A)

A

Medium contractile speed of muscle fibres, uses glycogen for energy, anaerobic

25
Q

Fast glycolytic (type 2B)

A

Fast contractile speed of muscle fibres, uses glycogen for energy, anaerobic

26
Q

Shin muscle

A

Tibius anteria

27
Q

Slow twitch oxidative features

A

Many mitochondria, high myoglobin, small in size

28
Q

Fast twitch oxidative features

A

Medium PC stores, moderate capillaries, medium size

29
Q

Fast glycolytic fibres features

A

Large size, few mitochondria, low myoglobin

30
Q

Effects of a warm up

A

Increases blood flow to the muscles, increases muscle temperature

31
Q

Effects of a cool down

A

Removal of lactic acid, maintains blood flow to Prevent pooling

32
Q

Agonist muscle for flexion at the shoulder

A

Anterior deltoid

33
Q

Agonist and antagonist for Adduction at the shoulder

A

Latissimus dorsi and deltoid

34
Q

Agonist and antagonist for horizontal flexion

A

Pectorallis major and posterior deltoid

35
Q

Agonist and antagonist for medial rotation

A

Trapezius and teres major

36
Q

Agonist and antagonist for flexion at the hip

A

Iliopsoas and gluteus maximus

37
Q

Agonist and antagonist for abduction at the hip

A

Gluteus medius & minimus and adductor longus
