Nasm vocabulary
Abduction: The ANSA body part is moving away from the body's midline. The ANSA muscle
that causes a limb or joint to be lowered is called an abductors. The ANSA muscle
responsible for causing a limb or joint to adduct Acceleration - ANSAn object's speed Active
force - ANSMuscle tension that is generated by its Contractile element
Adduction - ANSA body segment is advancing toward the body's midline. Afferent neurons
(ANS) are sensory neurons that send impulses toward the spinal cord and brain from the
body's periphery. Agonist - ANSMuscles that propel a joint exercise in the beginning The
process by which a short muscle, a tight muscle, or myofascial adhesions in the muscle
reduce the neural drive of its functional antagonist is known as altered reciprocal inhibition
(ANS). Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. They are made up of an amino
group, a carboxy group, and a R group, as well as a central carbon atom and a hydrogen
atom. Anatomic position - ANSStandard posture, in which the body is held upright with the
palms facing forward and the head pointing forward, arms beside the trunk. Revenue from
memberships and services purchased directly from customers constitutes ancillary revenue,
or ANS. Muscles that oppose the primary driver are called antagonists. Anterior - posterior
axis - ANSA straight line that cuts through the body from the front to back
The anterior oblique system, or ANS, is a subsystem of the global movement system that
consists of the abductor complex's internal and external obliques as well as the hip's
external rotators. Aponerurosis is characterized by a white tendon that connects muscle to
bone. The bones that connect the upper and lower extremities to the spinal column make up
the appendicular skeleton, or ANSPort of the skeleton. Arteries - ANSVessels that transport
blood away from the heart
The body's motions of the joints are known as arthrokinematics (ANS). atrioventricular node
- ANSSmall mass of specialized cardiac muscle fibers located on the wall of the right atrium
of the heart that receives impulses from the Sinoatrial node and direct send to the walls of
the ventricles
ANSValves that allow blood to flow properly from the atria to the ventricles are called
atrioventricular valves. The school rib cage and vertebrae column are the components of the
axilskeleton, or ANS, of the skeletal system. Axon is a cylinder-shaped projection from the
cell body that sends nerve impulses to other neurons or effector sites. ANSA is another
name for it. Best practices - ANSProfessional methods that are regarded as accurate, safe,
or most efficient The study of how forces affect a living thing is known as biomechanics
(ANS). Biotensegrity - ANSThe examination of how biological structural integrity may occur
Blood glucose, also known as blood sugar, is the sugar that is transported throughout the
body to provide energy to cells in the brain and other parts of the body that are unable to use
it as fuel. ANSA's scientific unit of energy is the calorie. The smallest blood vessels,
capillaries (ANS), are where blood and tissue exchange water and gas. Carboxyl group -
ANS The carbon atom forms a single bond with the hydroxyl group, and the oxygen atom
forms a double bond with it. Cardiac output - ANSHeart rate multiplied by stroke volume a
measure of overall performance of heart
Cardio respiratory system - ANSSystem of the body composed of the cardiovascular and
respiratory systems
, The heart, blood, and blood vessels comprise the cardiovascular system (ANS). Cell body -
ANSThe portion of The neuron that contains the nucleus lysosmes mitochondria and golgi
complex
Central nervous system - ANSThe division of the nervous system compromising the brain
and the spinal cord. Coordination of all body parts' activity is its primary function. Combining
two or more incomplete proteins to supply required amino acids is known as complementary
proteins (ANS). Complex protein - ANSA protein that allows all of the sensual amino acids in
the amounts of the body needs and is also easy to digest and absorb
Complex carbohydrates are ANSA carbs with more than 10 carbon units per water unit.
Includes the fiber and starch found in whole grains and vegetables
Concentric activation - ANSThe production of an active fourth when a muscle shortens while
developing tension Conditionally essential amino acids - ANSNonessential amino acids that
cannot be produced due to disease and as a result must be acquired in dietary sources
Continuing education - ANSAny of a number of courses designed to keep professionals
current in their knowledge and skills Continuing education unit (CEU) is an ANSA metric
used in professional continuing education courses to keep a license or certification current.
Corrective exercise - ANS As part of a training program, the programming process that
identifies neuromuscular dysfunction develops a plan of action and implements a corrective
strategy. Cumulative injury cycle - ANSA cycle whereby an injury will induce information,
muscle spasm, adhesion, altered neuromuscular control, and the muscle imbalances
A state of lost physical fitness known as deconditioned (ANSA) can result in muscle
imbalances, decreased flexibility, and a lack of core and joint stability. The global movement
system's deep longitudinal subsystem, or ANS, consists of the peroneous longus, anterior
tibialis, long head of the biceps femoris, sacrotuberous ligament, and thoracolumbar fascia.
They collaborate to produce a contracting tension to absorb and regulate ground reaction
forces during gait. ANS Demographics: Statistical information about the population's various
groups Dendrite - ANSThe proportion of a neuron that is responsible for gathering
information from other structures
Driver of sales - ANSActivities that create opportunities for future sales
The production of an active force when a muscle experiences tension while lengthening is
known as eccentric activation (ANS). Eccentric function - ANSAction of a muscle when it is
generating in a centric concentration
Efferent neurons - ANSMotor neurons thatsend a message from muscles to contract
Emulsification - ANSThe ability of a fat to mix with water
ANSAmino acids are essential amino acids that the body cannot make and must get from
food. Extension - ANSA vending at a joint or the relative angle between two adjoining
segments increases
The ANSA muscle that causes a limb or joint to extend is called the extensors. External
rotation is the movement of a limb or segment away from the body's midline. Extrinsic -
ANSLocated from outside yet act on a structure being considered
The carbon chains that make up the building blocks of fat in the human body are fatty acids,
or ANSAs. The normal extensibility of soft tissue that enables a joint to move through its full
range of motion is called flexibility (ANS). Flexion - ANSA bending at a joint where the
relative angle between two adjoining segments decreases
The ANSA muscle that causes flexion of a limb or joint is the flexors. Force - ANS1. a force
or pull that can halt or alter movement 2. Acceleration times mass equals force. Force
couple relationship - ANSMuscle groups moving together to produce movement around the
joint
