Q

Muscular Imbalance can be CAUSED by what 7 things?

A

Postural distortions, repetitive movement, cumulative trauma, emotional duress, poor training technique, poor bodily control, and biased training patterns.

23
Q

The body’s kinetic chain can be into what two regional chains?

A

The upper kinetic chain and the lower kinetic chain.

24
Q

Muscular Imbalance can RESULT in what 3 things?

A

Altered Reciprocal Inhibition, synergistic dominance and osteo- and athrokinematics dysfunction.

25
Q

What is altered reciprocal inhibition?

A

Normally when one muscle fires (agonist) the other one relaxes (antagonist) but muscular imbalances, muscle tightness/overactivity causes altered reciprocal inhibition, where this balance is disturbed and for example, the muscle may not relax correctly.

26
Q

What is synergistic dominance?

A

This occurs when a synergist takes over function for a weak or inhibited prime mover

27
Q

What does Osteokinematics describe?

A

How bones and joints move through a ROM.

28
Q

What does arthrokinematics describe?

A

Movement at the Joint surfaces

29
Q

Altered joint motion is caused by what 4 things?

A

Altered muscle length-tension relationships ( Muscles have an optimal length at which they can generate the most force. If muscles become too tight or too stretched (due to imbalances or lack of stretching), their ability to generate force effectively is compromised.) , force-couple relationships (muscles working together to produce a movement around a joint.), and poor joint surface motion, which results in poor movement efficacy

30
Q

What is Neuromuscular efficiency? (Four Things)

A

The nervous systems ability to recruit the correct muscles, produce force, reduce force, and dynamically stabilize the body’s structure in all three plans of motion

31
Q

What two concepts illustrate the scientific rationale for flexibility training?

A

Pattern Overload: Repeated movements without variation or much rest results in tight and overused muscles. Stretching combats this.

Cumulative Injury Cycle: Small repetitive injuries or stresses build up over time, leading to bigger problems. Lack of flexibility can contribute to the cumulative injury cycle by causing muscle imbalances, poor movement patterns, and increased risk of injury. Flexibility training aims to prevent this cycle by improving muscle balance, reducing tension, and enhancing overall joint health.

32
Q

What are the four common types of flexibility exercises?

A

Self-Myofascial Techniques, static, active and dynamic stretching.

33
Q

What is Self-Myofascial rolling and its benefits?

A

Produces local mechanical (loosens up tight muscles by applying pressure) and neurophysiological effects (helps NS relax muscle and improves their function by sending signals to reduce tension/pain) on myofascial (muscles+connective tissue) tissue

34
Q

Whats a Muscle Spindle?

A

Sensory receptors sensitive to change in length of the muscle and the
rate of that change

35
Q

What is the Golgi tendon organ?

A

Sensory receptor located where skeletal muscle fibers insert into the tendons of skeletal muscles. Detects changes in muscle tension. Signals muscles to relax when put through too much strain i.e failing a lift.

36
Q

What is Autogenic Inhibition

A

Process in which ones muscle spindles/muscles automatically relax in order to protect yourself from being overstretched or injured. GTO detects too much tension and sends signal to relax.

37
Q

What are the five components of health related fitness?

A

Cardiorespitory fitness, muscular strength, muscular endurance, flexibility and body composition.

38
Q

Research shows that cardiorespiratory fitness is an indicator of what?

A

It’s a strong predictor of morbidity and mortality.

39
Q

What principle should cardiorespiratory exercise use?

A

The FITTE-VP Principle: Frequency, Intensity, Type, Time, Enjoyment, Volume and Progression

40
Q

What 6 methods can you use to monitor a cardiorespiratory exercise?

A

Talk test, Calculating VO2 Max, % Max HR, HRR (Heart Rate Reserve), Metabolic Equivalents (METS), RPE,

41
Q

What are the recommended amounts of moderate intensity aerobic activity (i.e brisk walking) and vigorous intensity aerobic activity (i.e jogging/running)

A

150min/week for Moderate, 75min/week for Vigorous

42
Q

What are the uses and practices of Stage 1 workouts

A

Involves steady-state aerobic exercises made to improve cardiorespiratory fitness in healthy but sedantary people. Involves a intensity below VT1

43
Q

What are the uses and practices of Stage 2 workouts

A

Involves a mix of recovery intervals just below VT1 (moderate intensity) and work intervals just above VT1 (challenging to hard intensity)

44
Q

What are the uses and practices of Stage 3 workouts?

A

Involves a client moving out of training zones 1, 2 and 3.

45
Q

What are the uses and practices of Stage 4 workouts?

A

Involves INTERVAL training integrating all four zones.

46
Q

What are the uses and practices of Stage 5 workouts?

A

Focus on drills to help increase agility, conditioning and uses linear/multidirectional and sport specific exercises.

47
Q

Core training is critical for what 4 things?

A

Improving posture, enhancing performance, increasing injury resistance, and accelerating injury rehabilitation.

48
Q

What complex makes up the core? What two things does the core also include

A

lumbo-pelvic-hip complex (LPHC)
and includes the global and local core musculature.

49
Q

What is the local core musculature? What does it do

A

Local core muscles attach on or near the vertebrae. It provides dynamic control of spinal segments, limits excessive compression, shear and rotational forces between spinal segments.

50
Q

What are Global core muscles, what do they do?

A

Located more on the surface of the trunk. They help move the trunk, stabilize it, transfer loads from upper and lower extremities evenly and helps the spine together as one unit.

51
Q

When designing a core training program, what should be emphasized first?

A

Increase proprioceptive demand instead of external resistance first. Also, emphasize quality of movement across the LPHC

52
Q

What 5 variables can be changed when designing a core training program?

A

Planes of motion, range of motion, speed of motion, volume and exercise modalities.

53
Q

What initial core exercises should you start with?

A

start with core exercises that involve little motion of the spine and target the
local core musculature. (i.e marching,
floor/ball bridge, floor/ball cobra, plank, side plank, dead bug, and Palloff press.)

54
Q

What are the 2nd level core exercises you should continue with?

A

These will incorporate more motion at the spine that
also targets global core muscles: floor/ball crunch, back extension, reverse crunch, knee-up, and cable rotation, lift, and
chop

55
Q
A
55
Q

What are the 3rd and last level core exercises you can do?

A

This involves explosive movement through the trunk and
extremities: medicine ball chest pass,
ball medicine ball pullover throw, front medicine ball oblique throw, side medicine ball
oblique throw, medicine ball soccer throw, medicine ball woodchop throw, and
medicine ball overhead throw.
