Ther Ex Unit 1 Concepts Flashcards
6 Components of FCN
- Balance/postural equilibrium
- m. performance
- CV/edurance
- stability
- Neuromuscular control/coordination
- mobility/flexibility
4 Benefits/Goals of Ther EX
- Remediate/prev’t impairments
- Improve/restore/enhance physical FCN
- Prvt/minimize health related risk factors
- Optimize overall health status/fitness/sense of well being
Therapeutic Exercise
systematic + planned performance of mov’t, posture and PAs to reach benefits and goals of ther ex
6 Components of pt/client management model
- Examination
- Evaluation
- Diagnosis
- Prognosis
- Intervention
- Outcome
Factors of lvl of stress exposure [making it a composite value]
- magnitude
- time
- location
Specificity
TR effects from an ex program are specific to the ex performed and m. involved (FCNL)
Exercises should mimic the anticipated FCN
Factors Impacting specificity [5]
- mov’t pattern
- speed
- jt position
- type of contraction (ECC/CONC)
- environment
Task (Activity) Analysis
what does the mov’t require
Function Analysis
ID specific impairments that inform the ex plan
Identical Elements Theory
transfer of learning b/t skills + ex routines can occur if the main elements underlying diff skills or situations surrounding performance are ID + similar in nature
As the degree of similarity b/t stim + responses decreases, conflicting consequences may be experienced
Cross Training
Carry over of TR effects, occurs on a very lmt’d basis in RT & velocity of TR.
SAID Principile
Specific Adaptations to Imposed Demands
body systs adapt over time to stresses place on them
SAID principle is an extension of what
Wolff’s Law
Accomodation
Adaptation response will begin to slow if the exact same stimulus is con’t for a prolonged period
Adaptation is completed w/in a lmt’d time span
Ecahustion
con’t stim no longer elicits adaptation in the body
Alignment involves _____+_______
stability and mobility
Alignment goal
Goal is to develop postural stability throughout the kinetic chain without compromising mobility at any point in the chain
Joint Stability definition
ability to resist, maintain or control joint mov’t or position from an EXT F
Achieved by the coordinating actions of surrounding tissues and the neuromuscular sys
joint stability is observed from ____ –> _____
proximal —> distal
Consequences of lack of alignment
Distribution of forces is NOT OPTIMAL R in:
injury
poor form
loss of cartilage
Regional interdependence
loss of fcn/increased pain could be r. of joint above/below having a pathology (out of alignment)
mobility definition
allows each joint to move adequately so as to prvt another joint from compensation (regional interdependnce)
