Ther Ex Flashcards
Strength definition
The development of muscle action initiated an orchestrated by electrical impulses of the nervous system. Ability of muscles to generate force under a specific set of circumstances
Define therapeutic exercise
Phenomenon of strength in physical conditioning in order to create specific fitness and special preparedness for sporting movement
Maximal strength
Point proceeding maximum force produced
Absolute maximum
Amount of force achievable by a muscle or group of muscles under involuntary muscle stimulation
Competitive maximum
Greatest force achievable under emotional excitation
Training maximum
Greatest force achievable without substantial emotional excitation
Relative strength
Strength per unit of criteria with a given circumstance
Five factors that affect relative strength
Joint angle, joint orientation, speed of movement, muscle group, type of movement
What is the foundation of all strength
Neuromuscular
What are the two adaptations to repetitive exercise overtime
Structural, hypertrophy. Functional, better at exercise
What are the two results of hyper trophy training
Increase muscle mass, slight flexibility component
What are the results of functional training
Static strength, proprioceptive strength, speed strength, endurance strength, range of motion strength
What are the four functional adaptations
Intermuscular coordination, intramuscular coordination, motor learning, facilitory and inhibitory reflects responses
Describe intermuscular coordination
Sequencing or synchronization of firing between muscles or muscle groups
Describe intramuscular ordination
Optimal firing the fibers with in the same muscle
