Hodge Podge
100
The ability to align body against gravity to maintain or move within base of support without falling.
What is Balance?
100
FITT
What is Frequency, Intensity, Type of exercise, Time/duration
100
Muscle contraction without noticeable change in length of muscle
What is Isometric?
100
Ability of soft tissue to return to pre-stretch length immediately following removal of the stretch force
What is Elasticity?
100
Skeletal system adapts to the forces placed upon it Gravitational stresses, especially those in the weight-bearing position, contribute to the growth of the skeletal system Absence of normal stresses can lead to degeneration, degradation, deformity or injury
What is Wolff's Law?
200
Correct timing and sequencing of muscle firing for effective initiation, guiding and grading of movement.
What is Coordination?
200
SAID
What is Specific Adaptiation to imposed Demands?
200
Tension develops as muscle is shortened when external force is applied
What is concentric?
200
Ability of soft tissue to elongate and maintain new length after removal of the stretch force
What is Plasticity?
200
Passive motion performed by a mechanical device that moves a joint slowly and continuously through a controlled ROM
What is Continuous Passive Motion?
300
Move freely without restriction.
What is Flexibility?
300
SINSS
What is Severity, Irritability, Nature, Stage, Stability
300
Tension develops as muscle is elongated when external force is applied
What is Eccentric?
300
Elongate muscle to comfortable stretch and hold (mild tension, not pain, should be felt)
What is Static Stretching?
300
Sensitive to changes in tension Serves as a protective Mechanism
What is Golgi Tendon Organ (GTO)
400
Interaction of sensory and motor systems to work in a correct sequence to produce coordinated movement

What is Delorme Progressive Resistive Exercise?
500
For a muscle (or any tissue) to improve in strength, it must be forced to work at a higher level (load) than to watch it is accustomed
What is overload principle?

AAROM
What is Active Assisted Range of Motion?
500
Weight bearing exercises that keep distal ends stationary
What is closed-chain exercises?
