Flexibility

100

This type of stretch is better to perform during a cooldown and held in place for 30 seconds

Static Stretch

200

Poor flexibility can lead to this ________, which means the body seeks the path of least resistance. 

Relative Flexibility

300

This process allows for the simultaneous contraction of the agonist muscle and relaxation of the antagonist to allow movement in the body. 

Reciprocal inhibition

400

The condition/phenomenon that occurs when a synergistic muscle begins to take over function for a weak or inhibited prime mover.

Synergistic Dominance

500

This is located at the point where the muscle meets the tendon and is sensitive to changes in muscular tension. The stimulation of this sends a message to the brain to allow a muscle to relax during stretches

Golgi Tendon Organ (GTO)

Cardiorespiratory Assessment

100

Gold Standard measurement for cardiorespiratory fitness

VO2 Max

200

This formula determines HR Max (NAME)

Taneka Formula

208 - (.7xage) = HR max

300

What is another name for the Karvonen Method

Heart Rate Reserve

400

This describes which training zone:

Working an individual at a 5-6 on the RPE scale, their talking is becoming challenges, they are beginning to sweat and they have reached their VT1.

Training Zone 2

500

These 2 training zones are most appropriate for weight loss clientes

Zone 1 and 2

Core

100

Muscles that are attached to the spine and main job is to perform stabilization

Local Muscles

200

This spinal deviation can be influenced by muscle imbalances between right and left sides of the body

Scoliosis

300

What muscle is targeted when performing the drawing in maneuver

Transverse Abdominis

400

What core progression phase would the pallof press be in?

Progression 1: There is not core movement, only stabilization

500

A co contraction of global muscles such as the rectus abdominis and the external obliques is known as what?

Abdominal Bracing

Balance

100

Type of balance when a person tries to maintain their stability over an everchanging surface. Ex. Running over uneven surfaces

Dynamic Balance

200

3 systems assist in maintain balance: Visual, Vestibular and _____________

Somatosensory

300

Term that refers to 1 foot in front of the other (like standing on a balance beam)

Tandem stance

400

Single leg lift and chop would be considered which progression of balance training

Progression 1: no bending in LE

500

The name for these stretches:

Inverted Hurdlers, Plow, Shoulder stand, Straight-leg toe touch, Arching Quads

Controversial Stretches

400

What type of mechanism in the body is used when performing SMR to a muscle??

*Hint - It is NOT Reciprocal Inhibition

Autogenic Inhibition

(its the pressure your providing to that muscle causing it to relax)

500

The term for an external postural disturbance added to a balance task

Perturbatation
