fitness, which may include
muscle imbalances,
decreased flexibility, and a
lack of core and joint
stability
the cumulative sensory proprioception
input to the central
nervous system from all
mechanoreceptors that
sense body positions and
limb movement
an unstable physical proprioceptively enriched movement
situation in which
exercises are performed
that cause the body to use
its internal balance and
stabilization mechanisms
(Examples include using
stability balls and single-
leg squats versus
traditional)

What is the first phase of stabilization training
training that should be
completed before
anything else to prevent
injury and/or tension at the
joints?
the muscle that acts as the prime mover
initial and main source of
motive power

are performed back-to-
back without any rest time
between them
What type of training Hypertrophy training
should done by
individuals with a goal of
maximal muscle growth?

system to sense changes
in either the internal or
external environment
the ability of the nervous integrative function
system to analyze and
interpret sensory
information to allow
proper decision making,
which produces the
appropriate response
the neuromuscular motor function
response to the sensory
information
the functional unit of the neuron
nervous system
These neurons transmit sensory neurons
nerve impulses from
effector sites via receptors
to the brain and spinal
cord -- respond to touch,
sound, light and other
stimuli
transmit nerve impulses interneurons
from one neuron to
another
transmit nerve impulses motor neurons
from the brain and spinal
cord to effector sites
