Question | Answer |
flexibility | the range of motion possible about a joint |
ROM | Range of Motion - the number of degrees that an articulation (joint) will allow one of its segments to move |
static flexibility | range of motion- about the joint when speed is invollved during physical performance strenght power neuromucsler |
dynamic flexibility | the range of motion about a joint when speed is involved during physicl performance; strenght, power, neuromuscular coodination, and tissue resistance are all factors. |
synovial fluid | transparent, viscous lubericating fluif found in joint cavities bursge, and tendon sheaths |
stretch weakness | the weakening effect on muscles remaining in the elogated position for an extended period of time. |
connective tissue | the tissue that binds together and supports various structures of the body (e.g, ligaments and tendons) |
tendon | strong fibrous connective tissue that attaches a muscle to a bone. |
ligament | a connective tissue that attaches a muscle to a bone |
fascia | a sheet or band of fibrous tissue that lies deep to the skin forms an attachment for muscle and organs. |
viscoelastic | a combination of elastic and plastic properites found in all connective tissue |
myotatic stretch reflex | muscular reflex created by excessive muscle spindle simulation to prevent potential tissue damange |
golgi tendon organ | a sensory organ with in a tendon that when stimulated causes an inhibition of the entire muscle group to protect too much force |
muscle spindles | the sensory organ with in a muscle that is sentive to strech and thus protects the muscle group from being streched too far. |
reciprocal innervation | reflex co- acting with the strech reflex to inhidit activity of an opposing muscle group |
reciprocal inhibition | reflex co-acting with strech reflex to inhibit activity of an opposing group. |
autogenic inhibition | an automatic reflex realxion caused by excessive simtional of gologi tendons organs GTOS |
possive streching | a streching in which the elastic componets of the muscle are relaxed and the portion of muscle most likely to be loaded is the connective tissue (e.g, a staic strech). |
active streching | a streching of muscle and tissue that requires muscle contraction through a range of motion no outside force is involved |
static streching | a low- force long- duration strech that holds the desired muscle at their greates possible lenght for at lest 15 to 30 secounds |
ballistic streching | a high force, short-duration strech using rapid bouching movements |
pro[rioceptive neuromuscular facilition (pNf) | a method of promothing the response of neuromus uscular mechanisms throught the stimulation of propriocaptors in an attempt to gain more stretch in a muscle often referred to as a contract / relax method of streching |
active isolated streching (als) | a streching technique model after traditional strenght- traing workouts. stretch are held very briefly in sets of a specified number of repetitons with a goal of isolating and indivual muscle in each set. |
elastic strech | recoverable elongation of connective tissue. |
ais | active isolated streching a streching techunique modeled after traditional strenght- traing workout. |
hypokineis | a deficienecy of potassium in blood |
pnf | procioceptive neuromuscule facilitation |
