Prehabilitation and stretching quiz review Flashcards
Prehabilitation
Trying to prevent injuries before they occur
Strength Training
A highly adaptive process where the body changes in response to increased training loads
Overload
When our muscles increase in size because they are forced to their maximum
Hypertrophy
The process in which our muscles increase in size
Atrophy
When muscles get smaller due to under use
Reversability
The process in which our muscles atrophy
Individual Differences
People vary in the rate in which they increase their size
Slow twitch
Twitches that are recruited for low intensity activities
Fast twitch
Twitches that are greater in stronger athletes
Specificity
Muscles adapting to specific to nature of work
Stretching
The ability of a joint to move BEYOND their normal range of motion
Flexability
The ability of a joint to move FREELY through its range of motion
Resistance
In this training resistance is added to the lift and full range of motion is used
Cardiovascular
This type of training is also known as aerobic
Isotonic
Examples of this exercise are: bicep curls, squat holds, push ups; muscles contract and shorten
Immobilization
The most common treatment of a fracture is
Hepatitis B
A vaccine exist for this virus
Isotonic
In this exercise muscles contract and shorten
Isometric
In these exercises muscles contract but don’t shorten
HIV
This virus causes suppression of the immune system
PNF stretching
Stretching that involves cycles of contraction and relaxation
Circuit
This type of training is brief, timed and rest intervals
Hepatitis C.
This virus is often asymptomatic
