Resistance Exercise Flashcards
(23 cards)
Resistance that is provided by a PT or another HCP and cannot be measured quantitatively
Manual Resistance Exercise
resistance that is applied through use of equipment or mechanical apparatus and can be measured quantitatively and increased over time
mechanical resistance exercise
to increase strength
low reps, high load
to increase muscular endurance
low load, more reps, long periods of time
to increase power
more intensity in a less amount of time
precautions to resistance exercise
valsalva maneuver fatigue recovery from exercise overwork/overtraining substitute motions osteoporosis exercise induced muscle soreness
acute muscle soreness
develops during or directly after strenuous exercise performed to the point of fatigue
delayed onset muscle soreness
12-24 hours after exercise and peaks 24-48 hours after exercise
happens because of micro tears during lengthening of the muscle fibers
contraindications of resistance exercise
inflammation
pain - if a patient is experiencing pain before resistance
severe CPD
gradual increase of stress placed upon the body during exercise training so we can get muscle increase, or muscle endurance increase or power increase
progressive overload
when exercises in the program mimic the anticipated function
specificity
isometric muscle contraction
no change in muscle length
isokinetic
the speed and movement of a body part is controlled by a rate-limiting device
eccentric muscle contraction
lengthening of the muscle
concentric muscle contraction
shortening of the muscle
constant tension
dumbbell
variable tension
theraband
open chain exercise
(distal on proximal)
unrestricted movements in space of a peripheral segment of the body
closed chain exercise
(proximal on distal)
plyometric training
high intensity, high velocity exercises designed to emphasize development of muscular power and coordination
for higher level athletes
the muscle must be challenged to perform at a level greater than that to which it is accustomed
overload
muscle confusion
variation
an approach to resistance training that breaks up a training program into periods and builds systematic variation in exercise intensity and reps, sets. frequency at regular intervals over a specified period of time
periodization
