16
Q

Muscles always work in and attach

A

pairs, origin and insertion

17
Q

agonist/ antagonist

A

agonist: responsible for movement
antagonist: resists the movement

18
Q

flexor/ Synergist

A

Flexor: Stabilize
Synergist: help do same movement

19
Q

twitch/ tetanus

A

Twitch: single contraction
Tetanus: contraction followed by another

20
Q

muscle named based on:

A

shape, size, muscle fiber direction, action, # of origins, origins and insertions, functions, and location

21
Q

4 types of soreness

A

Muscle strains: overstretch/tear of muscle or tendon
Muscle spasm: contraction of muscle
DOMS: Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (feeling after workout)
Lactic Acid: Burning feeling (by-product of muscle metabolism)

22
Q

When is DOMS felt?

A

24-72 hours after workout

23
Q

Muscle Contractions:

A

Isotonic, Isometric, Isokinetic

24
Q

Isotonic

A

Change in length and speed, resistance is constant
- bicep curl, squats

25
Q

advantages and disadvantages of isotonic

A

advantage: strengthens muscle through ROM, choose exercises
disadvantage: make muscles sore because of stress, gains strength at weakest point of action

26
Q

Isometric

A

muscle contracts & no change length
-plank

27
Q

advantages and disadvantages of isometric

A

Advantage: develop static strength, not expensive equipment, do anywhere
Disadvantage: muscle not working though action

28
Q

isokinetic

A

contracts and shortens at constant speed, change in resistance
-NEED machine (treadmill)

29
Q

advantages and disadvantages of isokinetic

A

advantage: gains even strength through ROM, fastest way to increase strength
disadvantage: equipment is expensive

30
Q

muscle fibers:

A

type 1: slow twitch: endurance
type 2: fast twitch: strength & power

31
Q

anerobic respiration

A

strength exercises: without air: fast twitch
- energy turned into lactic acid

32
Q

aerobic respiration

A

Oxygen: slow twitch: endurance exercise

33
Q

Muscle Fibers: (Color)

A

fast fiber: white meat
slow fiber: dark meat
Humans contain a mixture

34
Q

Types of Stretches:

A

Dynamic, Static, Ballistic, Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF)

35
Q

Dynamic

A

movement “active stretch” (Before activity)

36
Q

Static

A

Holding stretch (After activity)

37
Q

Ballistic

A

“bouncing stretch” (NEVER SHOULD BE DONE)

38
Q

PNF

A

Done with a partner (Before or after activity)
