Plyometrics

QuestionAnswer
Definition 1)Type of mvmt 2)Activates the...prior to... 3)Relationship to power 1) Quick, powerful mvmt involving eccentric prestretching/ counter movement 2) Activating the stretch-shortening cycle, prior to concentric muscle contraction 3) Could link strength with speed to produce power
What is it meant to encompass Maximal, all-out quality efforts with gravity and BW being the constants for each rep of an exercise
What is the stretch-shortening cycle Term used in physiology literature to describe activities (Jumping, running, throwing)
What phases are plyos described as (3) Biphasic Triphasic 5 phases
Biphasic Plyometrics Concentric Eccentric
Triphasic Plyometrics Eccentric (Preload) -> Transition/Amortization -> Concentric (contraction)
5 phases of plyometrics Momentum -> Eccentric (Preload) -> Transition/Amortization -> Concentric (contraction)-> Momentum
Amortization 1)What is it Time from initial
Loading Phase 1)Also called...(3) 2)Begins when... 3)Ends when... (3) 1) Eccentric preload, Deceleration, Cocking phase 2) Muscle-tendon units initiate -tive work 3) Center of mass reaches its lowest position Velocity reduces to zero Ground rx force curve begins to reverse direction
What happens when there is a stretch of the active muscle during the loading phase (3) Muscle potentiation Stretch reflex Storage of elastic potential energy
Muscle potentiation 1) What is it 2)Its a increase in...and a decrease in... An alteration of the muscle contractile properties that leads to higher force production An increase in proportion of cross bridges attached to actin and a decrease in cross bridge detachment rate
Stretch reflex How it works (3 steps) 1) Muscle stretch stimulates spindle 2)Provides excitatory feedback to same muscle via monosynaptic reflex loop 3) Resulting in myotatic /stretch reflex
Storage of elastic potential energy 1)Roll of tendon 2)Roll of GTP 1) Tendon is main contributor to muscle-tendon unit length changes and storage to elastic potential energy 2)GTO is stimulated by stretch and via the release of stored energy, has been found to intiate excitatory reflexes
Coupling Phase 1) What is it 2) Referred to as 3) When does muscle fascicle length not change (3) 4)How long does it take for coupling phase to have a decrease in stored energy 5) Relationship b/n duration and amnt of work input and the cause of it 1) Transition b/n loadin, unloadin phase 2) Amortization phase 3) Jt angle, vertical ground force, CoM of body is about to change direction 4) Lasting >25ms 5) Shorter phase= greater muscle work output due to max utilization of stored elastic energy
When will plyometric exercise be classified as a strenghtening activity When the exercise has a visible pause in jt mvmt
Unloading Phase 1)When does it occur 2) Involves... 3) Also called...(3) 4) When does it begin and end 5) Type of phase 1) p coupling phase 2)Shortening of muscle-tendon unit 3) Rebound, shortening, push-off 4) When muscle-tendon unit begins to shorten; ends @ toe off 5) Resultant phase- Incrd efficiency results in greater force production & work output by muscle
Plyometric Activity 1) Utilizes these elastic components (3) Actin and myosin filaments Tendon
2 muscle proprioceptors Spindles Golgi Tendon Organs
Spindles 1)How it works (3) 1)Stimulated via stretch Sensory info is passed thru reflex loop to provide excitatory feedback to agonist extrafual fibers Results in short-latency reflex muscle activity (stretch-reflex)
Spindles 1) What modulates stretch reflex output (2) 2) How to increase stretch reflex (2) 1) Rate and magnitude of loading 2) Faster rates and higher loading magnitudes
Golgi tendon organs 1) How it works (2) Stimulated by stretch Gives sensory info to an interneuron and inhibitory feedback to the contracting muscle
Plyometrics role in GTO (2) May desensitize GTO- allowing greater accumulation of force during eccentric period Initiate excitatory reflexes
Excitatory reflexes that may improve NM control Length feedback Force feedback
Length feedback 1)Links...(2) 2) Contributes to... 1) Muscles that are synergists w/ excitatory feedback and opposing muscle w/ reciprocal inhibition Monarticular muscles with excitatory feedback 2) Joint stiffness
Force feedback 1)Connects.... 2)Relationship to joints 1) Connects muscles that cross different joints and exert torque in different directions through inhibitory feedback 2)Regulates coupling b/n joints
Plyometric Performance Enhancement How plyometrics improves efficiency and force production (3) 1) Summation of storage and reutilization of elastic energy 2) Muscle potentation 3) Myotatic stretch reflex
1)When do most plyometrics terminate 2)The degee of performance enhancement depends on...(3) 1) In momentum phase 2)Magntiude of force Speed/quickness of the mvmt Total contact duration (loading through unloading phase)
Forces 1)Relationship b/n forces and coupling phase 2)Relationship b/n forces and energy storage 1) Higher forces are associated with a shorter coupling phase 2)Higher forces- Produce greater energy storage in series elastic components
Plyometrics and Contact Duration 1)As contact duration decreases...(3) Refers to... 2) When does prolonged contact occurs (2) Should it occur 1)Incr force is gnerated, incr joint movement, increase tendon contribution to work Refers to amatorization 2)should be avoided Occurs when intensity is too high during loading Occurs when transition b/n loading, unloading isn't continuous
Intensity of plyometrics 1)Intensity's relationship to height 2) Height relationship to contact time and tendon shortneing 3)When does point of diminishing return occurs? 1) Intensity increases w/ height 2)Increased height= reduced contact time and tendon shortening (unloading phase) is greater 3) When contact time increases and elstic recoil ration of tendon decreases
Who would benefit from plyometric program (3) 1) Desire to return to activities requiring explosive movements 2)Advanced speed, forces, or planes of motion needed for skill reacquistion 3) Bridge the gap b/n traditional rehab and return to sport-specific activities
Contraindications (7) Acute joint inflammation Pain Immediate post-op status Joint instability Joint pathology- OA, bone bruise, chondral injury Musculotendinous injury until appropriate tissue healing Younger athletes (prepubescent)
Criteria to initiate a program (3) Pt can tolerate ADLs w/o pain or swelling Nearly full ROM and adequate base level of strength, endurance, and NM control Tolerate moderate loading during traditional strengthening exercise and perform fxal mvmt patterns c proper form
