Resistive Exercise - Class 4 Flashcards
open chain
distal segment is free to move
in open chain there is
unrestricted movement of a peripheral segment of the body
there is –> open chain
independent joint motion
where does motion occur –> OC
distal to joint axis
greater… –> OC
distraction and rotary forces
how is OC almost always done
NWB positions
less…–> OC
proprioceptive input
what is required with OC
external stabilization required
closed chain
peripheral segment has to meet external resistance
what moves over what –> CC
proximal segment moves over the fixed, distal segment
there is good –> CC
stabilization for joint congruency
what does CC used
fxnal posture and muscle contractions
there is –> CC
great proprioception secondary to closed surface input
compressive forces result –> CC
decreased shearing force
what does OC allow for
specific muscles to be trained
