Terminology (PT 2)

Question 1

Eccentric contraction

Answer 1

Overall lengthening of a muscle occurs as it develops tension (and contracts to control motion) AGAINST the resistance of an OUTSIDE FORCE

Question 2

Isokinetic contraction

Answer 2

Another dynamic form of exercise with lengthening and shortening using a machind that controls the speed of movement

Question 3

Isotonic contraction

Answer 3

?

Question 4

Concentric contraction

Answer 4

Overall shortening of the muscle occurs as it generates tension and contracts against resistance

Question 5

Open Chain Exercises

Answer 5

Exercise in which a distal segment of the body moves freely in space

Question 6

Close Chain Exercises

Answer 6

Exercise in which the distal end of the segment is fixed to a supporting surface as the trunk and proximal segments move over the fixed part. (This includes functional exercises, especially for the lower extremities, in which the foot is stabilized on the ground and the muscles control the hips, knees, and ankles in activities such as squatting, climbing steps, and getting in and out of a chair)
