Medial/lateral
Middle/outer
Anterior/posterior
Front/back
Distal/proximal
Furthest extremity/closest to trunk
Superior/inferior
Top/bottom
Superficial/deep
The most top layer of the muscle
Deepest layer
Supine/prone
Facing up/facing down
Bilateral
Affecting both sides
FITT-VP principles
Frequency - number of days per week
Intensity - level of exertion
Time- amt of time PA ie performed
Type - mode of physical activity
Volume - quantity of exercise completed weekly
Progression - overload the muscle over time as adaptation occurs
Overload
Increased training load allowing body to reach a higher level of fitness
Specificity
Nature of training load determines the training effect
Cross-training
Combining different types of exercise activities
Periodization
Gradual cycling of specificity, intensity, and volume of training to achieve optimal development of performance capacity
Overtraining
Training loads that are too demanding for the individual’s level of fitness
Closed kinetic chain
Motions where distal sections are fixed or stabilized on a surface
