EXS 318 EXAM 1 STUDY GUIDE
Inhibitory techniques - Answers - to decrease intramuscular activity (self myofascial
release)
Lengthening techniques - Answers - Increase extensibility (static stretching)
Activation techniques - Answers - to re-educate underactive tissues (positional
isometrics)
Integration techniques - Answers - to re-train synergistic function (integrated dynamic
movement)
Integrated movement assessments include - Answers - movement assessment
(overhead squat)
ROM assessment
Muscle strength assessment
Human Movement Science - Answers - the study of how the human movement system
functions in an interdependent, interrelated scheme
skeletal-nervous-muscle
sagittal plane - Answers - flexion and extension
frontal plane - Answers - abduction and adduction
transverse plane - Answers - rotation
concentric develops when - Answers - muscle is shortening; when developed tension
overcomes resistive force
eccentric develops when - Answers - muscle is lengthening; when resistive force
overcomes developed tension
isometric develops when - Answers - when the contractile force is equal to the
restrictive force
length-tension relationship - Answers - there is an optimal length which the actin and
myosin filaments have the greatest amount of overlap
