🗑
People with LBP should AVOID:   (1) Unsupported forward flexion, (2) Twisting at the waist w/ feet turned, (3) Lifting both legs simultaneously when in a prone or supine position, (4) Rapid movements (twisting,forward flexion, hypertension.  
🗑
People with LBP SHOULD: (full list (Pg.549))   (1) Consult physician, (2) warm up & cool down each session, (3) maintain neutral pelvic alignment & erect torso, (5) Avoid head-forward position w/chin tilted up, (6) Always BEND knees when leaning forward, lifting, lowering  
🗑
LPB Basic Training Components:   Cardiorespiratory training, resistance training, and basic core exercises  
🗑
Concentric Muscle Contraction:   (Shorten) The length of the muscles shorten while undergoing tension. (bicep curl up)  
🗑
Eccentric Muscle Contraction:   (Lengthen) The length of the muscle elongates, or lengths while undergoing tension. Can be voluntary or involuntary. (bicep curl down)  
🗑
Isometric Muscle Contraction:   (Unchanged) Length of the muscle doesn't change when undergoing tension. (holding a Bicep Curl mid way in an "L" shape)  
🗑
Strain (Pg. 625)   Is the overstretching or tearing of muscles or tendons. Tendons are the dense fibrous cords of tissue that connect bones to muscles. The most common locations for a muscle ____ are the hamstring muscle and the lower back.  
🗑
Sprains (Pg.592)   Is the overstretching or tearing of ligaments. Ligaments are the bands of tissue that connect two bones together in a joint. The most common location for a ____ is the ankle joint.

Type 1 Muscle Fibers (Slow- twitch) (Pg.270)   Enhances a stabilizers muscle's capacity for endurance which allows joints to stabilize for prolonged periods w/o fatigue. Are typically small w/ more aerobic power.  
🗑
Type 2 Muscle Fibers (Fast twitch) (Pg.270)   Primarily responsible for joint movement and generating larger force. Better suited for strength & power type training. Responsible for high-force, short duration contractions, and enhancements of muscle size/definition
