Which muscle in the external obliques
abdominal wall is
considered the largest of
the abdominal muscles?
buoyancy the upward thrust exerted by water on the body immersed
hydrostatic pressure the weight of the water that pushes against a submerged
object from all sides
Drag resistance against an object in water or on land
What are the four Speed, Power, Skill, and Agility
components of fitness
performance?
When performing fitness 1 movement/2 beats of music
activities in water, how
many movements should
be performed to two beats
of music?
F= frequency (3-5 days) I=
intensity:
aerobic: 60-90% of max hr anaerobic:
85-95% of max hr
Explain the FITT Principle
T= time: 150 min of moderate intensity/week
20-60min of continuous activity/exercise session T=
type: any cardio-respiratory activity that can be
sustained for 20-60 min
, What muscle is the transverse abdominis
deepest of the four
abdominal muscles?
What movements are elicited extension of the lumbar spine and lateral flexion of spine
through contraction of the
erector spinae muscles?
Which muscle is the primary Psoas major
hip flexor that attaches to
both the femur and lumbar
spine and helps to stabilize
the pelvis?
Name the four shoulder trapezius, rhomboids, serratus anterior, levator scapulae
girdle muscles
List the three types of joints ball & socket, hinge and elbow, and pivot joints
in the body
List the three types of muscle isotonic, isometric, isokinetic
contractions
They are responsible for definite movement of a joint.
Explain the role that prime
mover/agonist muscles play
during contraction.
List the benefits derived - restore good posture by correcting muscleimbalances,
from performing aqua improving joint mobility, increasing flexibility, and strengthening
exercise as far as posture is
both postural and mobilizing muscles
concerned
-develop muscles equally so as to build strength in a balanced way
- stretch and elongate muscles for optimum flexibility
- realign the spine
