Resistance Exercise for Impaired Muscle Performance Flashcards
It is the capacity of a muscle to do work (force x distance).
Muscle Performance
It is the complex component of functional movement and is influenced by all of the body systems.
Muscle Performance
Factors that affect muscle performance.
- Morphological qualities of muscle
- Neurological
- Biochemical
- BIomechanical influences
- Metabolic
- Cardiovascular
- Respiratory
- Cognitive
- Emotional Function
State the key elements of muscle performance.
Strength
Power
Endurance
It is an activity in which dynamic or static muscle contraction is resisted by an outside force applied manually or mechanically.
Resistance Exercise
Resistance exercise is also called ________.
Resistance Training
It is an essential element of rehabilitation programs for persons with impaired function.
Resistance Training/ Resistance Exercise
It is an integral component of conditioning programs for those who wish to promote or maintain health and physical well-being, enhance the performance of motor skills, and reduce the risk of injury and disease.
Resistance Training/Resistance Exercise
These are the foundations on which a therapist determines whether a resistance exercise program is warranted and likely to be effective.
Comprehensive Examination and Evaluation of the patient or client
It is a broad term that refers to the extent that the contractile elements of muscle produce force
Muscle strength
It is the contractile tissue that generates enough force to meet the physical and functional demands placed on the system.
Muscle strength
It is the greatest measurable force that is exerted by a muscle or muscle group to overcome resistance during a single maximum effort.
Muscle Strength
It relates to the ability of the neuromuscular system to produce the appropriate amount of force,d during functional activities in a smooth and coordinated manner.
Functional strength
It can contribute to major functional losses of even the most basic activities of daily long living.
Insufficient muscular strength
The development of muscle strength is an integral component of most rehabilitation or conditioning programs for individuals of all ages and abilities.
Strength training
Give me 2 benefits of Resistance Exercise
- Decreased joint stress during physical activity
- Improved balance
It is related to the strength and speed of movement and is defined as the work produced by a muscle per unit of time.
Muscle power
Rate of performing work
Power
T or F
Anaerobic and aerobic power are sometimes used to differentiate these two aspects of power.
T
Many motor tasks are somewhat ballistic movements that involve both strength and speed. Therefore, re-establishing this may be an important priority in the rehabilitation program.
Power training
It is a broad term that refers to the ability to perform repetitive or sustained activities over a prolonged time.
Endurance
Associated with repetitive, dynamic motor activities, such as walking, cycling, swimming, or upper extremity ergometry, which involve use of the large muscles of the body.
Cardiopulmonary Endurance.
It is sometimes referred to as local endurance and the ability of a muscle to contract repeatedly against an external load, generate and sustain tension, and resist fatigue over an extended period of time.
Muscle Endurance
This is sometimes used interchangeably with muscle endurance
Aerobic Power
A foundational element that guides resistance exercise in improving muscle performance. States that if muscle performance is to improve, a resistance load that exceeds the metabolic capacity of the muscle must be applied.
Overload Principle
It refers to how much external resistance is imposed on the muscle
Intensity of resistance exercise
It includes variables such as repetitions sets, or frequency, any combination of which can be adjusted to progressively increase the demands on the muscle.
Volume of exercise
This principle refers to the concept that to improve a specific muscle performance element, the resistance program should be matched to the element constructs.
SAID principle/ Specific Adaptation to Imposed Demands
Referred to as specific exercise, is a widely accepted concept suggesting that the adaptive effects of training, such as improvement of strength, power, and endurance, are highly specific to the training method employed.
Specificity of Training
Referred to as specific exercise, is a widely accepted concept suggesting that the adaptive effects of training, such as improvement of strength, power, and endurance, are highly specific to the training method employed.
Specificity of Training
In contrast to the SAID principle, carryover of training effects from one variation of exercise or task to another also has been reported on a very limited basis concerning velocity training.
Transfer of Training
Adaptive changes in the body’s system in response to a resistance program are transient unless training-induced improvements are regularly used for functional activities or unless an individual participates in a maintenance program of resistance exercise.
Reversibility Principle
