Muscle Imbalance
Alteration of muscle length surrounding a joint.
Obesity
The condition of being consider-ably overweight, and refers to a person with a body
mass index (BMI) of 30 or greater, or who is at least 30 pounds over the recommended
weight for their height
Overweight
defined as a person with a BMI of 25 to 29.9, or who is between 25 to 30 pounds over
the recommended weight for their height (
Blood Lipids
Cholesterol + Triglycerides carried in the blood-stream by Protein molecules (known as
High-density Lipoproteins (HDL) & Low-density lipoproteins (LDL))
Healthy Cholesterol Level
Cholesterol LESS than 200 mg/dl
Borderline-High Cholesterol Level
Cholesterol btwn 200-239 mg/dL,
High-Risk Cholesterol Level
Cholesterol HIGHER than 240 mg/dL.
Formula for BMI in lbs
BMI = 703 x weight/height
Formula for BMI in Kg
BMI = Weight/Height
Diabetes Mellitus
Chronic metabolic disorder caused by insulin deficiency, which impairs carbohydrate
usage and enhances usage of fats and proteins
Deconditioned
A state of lost physical fitness, which may include muscle imbalances, decreased
flexibility, and a lack of core and joint stability.
Proprioception
Cumulative Sensory-Input to the CNS from ALL Mechanoreceptors that sense Body
Position + Limb Movement
Proprioceptively Enriched Environment:
An unstable (yet controllable) physical situation in which exercises are performed that
causes the body to use its internal balance and stabilization mechanisms.
Physiological Benefits of the OPT Model
IMPROVES Cardiorespiratory Efficiency
ENHANCES Beneficial Endocrine (hormone) & Serum Lipid (cholesterol) Adaptations; ↑
Metabolic Efficiency (metabolism); ↑ Tissue Tensile Strength (tendons, ligaments,
muscles); ↑ Bone-Density
