NASM Stretching and Flexibility Complete Questions & Answers(Graded A)

Flexibility - ANSWER Normal extensibility (ability to stretch) of all soft tissues (contractile and non-contractile) that allow the complete range of motion (ROM) of a joint. functional anatomy - ANSWER collection of parts that mechanically move and work together to perform tasks. Regional Interdependence (RI) model - ANSWER expanded the biomechanical model to include a total-body approach that accounts for regions away from the site of dysfunction. Flexibility - ANSWER having the optimal amount of extensibility in the fascia and muscular systems to adequately perform a physical task. Biotensegrity - ANSWER The tension and compression elements that describe force vector concepts applied to biology and the human body. Mobility - ANSWER used to describe joint motion Hypermobility - ANSWER More than optimal range of motion. Hypomobility - ANSWER Less than optimal range of motion. Stretching - ANSWER can improve flexibility and mobility. elongating the soft tissues to improve extensibility. Tissue resistance - ANSWER The amount of force the fitness professional manually feels (or lack thereof) when passively moving the client's body, region, or limb during assisted stretching. Stretch tolerance - ANSWER An individual's increased ability to withstand stretching forces from repeated bouts of flexibility training. Stretch intolerance - ANSWER An individual's decreased ability to withstand stretching forces due to injury or disease. DOS - ANSWER dynamic oscillatory stretching Which of the following receptors causes autogenic inhibition in skeletal muscles as a result of tensed collagen - ANSWER Golgi tendon organs Which of the following helps the fitness professional to address a client who is hypomobile after an assessment? - ANSWER Flexibility and stretching
