PHYSICAL: BIOMECHANICAL Flashcards
It based on the principles of anatomy and physiology of the musculoskeletal system, kinetics and kinematics , and certain physiological processes such as tissue healing, exercise physiology, and energy cost of activities as together, these processes explain how humans produce and sustain movement.
Biomechanical FOR
It is the arc of motion through which a joint moves that is determined by the underlying structure of the joint (i.e., bones and ligaments) and the integrity of the surrounding capsule.
Joint Range of Motion
It is the power of a muscle to resist movement.
Muscle Strength
It is the ability to sustain muscle and cardiorespiratory activity and determines the extent to which a person can do tasks that make up occupations
Endurance
