what are the exercise considerations for people w/ cardiac conditions? -
(answers)1. emphasize self-monitoring for intensity
2. avoid rapid change from laying down to standing
3. avoid valsalva maneuver
4. avoid isometric exercises(rise in BP)
What is the first objective in phase 1 for stability and mobility training in
programming? - (answers)To reestablish appropriate levels of stability and
mobility
What is center of mass(COM) - (answers)point where weight is evenly distributed
For the first phase, what should be the first region prioritized? - (answers)The
lumbar region
What other regions should be then focused on after the lumbar spine? -
(answers)Lumbar spine--->pelvis and thoracic spine--->scapulothoracic spine---
>glenohumeral joint
Lumbar-stable
, 2
Pelvis and thoraci-Mobile
Scapulothoracic- stable
Glenohumeral-Mobile
Then DISTAL regions
What is the importance of improving the three regions first before going to distal
regions? - (answers)Compromises existing stability; when a joint lacks stability,
many muscles normally mobilize that joint may need to alter their true functions
to provide stability which leads to increase the potential for dysfunctional
movement and injury
Type 1 muscles - (answers)stability
Type 2 muscles - (answers)mobility
What is self-myofascial release? - (answers)stretching of the muscle with a foam
roller
What exercises make up the proximal stability: core function for lumbar area? -
(answers)1. Supine drawing in
2. Quadruped Drawing-in with extremity movement
mobility or stability? glenohumeral - (answers)mobility
, 3
mobility or stability? scapulothoracic - (answers)stability
mobility or stability? thoracic spine - (answers)mobility
mobility or stability? lumbar spine - (answers)stability
mobility or stability? hip - (answers)mobility
mobility or stability? knee - (answers)stability
mobility or stability? ankle - (answers)mobility
mobility or stability? foot - (answers)stability
As the agonist muscle shortens, what does the antagonist muscle do? -
(answers)lengthen
What is a sarcomere? - (answers)the basic functioning unit of the myofibril that
contains the contractile proteins that generate skeletal muscle movements
What is myofibril? - (answers)portion of muscle that gives the striated appearance
to skeletal muscle
, 4
How is a neutral pelvis achieved? - (answers)by opposing force couples between 4
muscle groups
In neutral pelvis, rectus abdominis is opposite of - (answers)hip flexors
In neutral pelvis, hamstrings are opposite of - (answers)erector spinae
At the glenhumeral joint, what is a force-couple? - (answers)deltoid and rotator
cuff muscles during abduction
What is reciprocal inhibition? - (answers)when hypertonic muscles decrease the
neural drive to the opposing muscle
what can a tight hip flexor do? - (answers)inhibit and weaken the butt so that the
hamstrings try to help and can get injured in hip extension
What is synergistic dominance? - (answers)ex: when the hamstrings try to help
with hip abduction because the glutes are weakened from tight hip flexors; the
hamstrings become the prime mover
What proximal region of the body encompasses the body's COM and core?
(center of mass) - (answers)lumbar spine
