17
Q

What is a fixator muscle

A

A muscke which helps the agonist work effectively

18
Q

What is a synergistic

A

A muscle that helps apply effort

19
Q

Describe type 1 muscle fibres

A

Slow
Aerobic

20
Q

Describe 2a muscle fibres

A

High force production
Prolonged high intensity 10s - 3mins
Fast Oxidative Glycolytic ( FOG )

21
Q

Describe type 2b muscle fibres

A

Fast glycolytic
Very high force production
Very low resistance to fatigue

22
Q

Name two muscles at the rotator cuff

A

Teres major
Subscapularis

23
Q

What is the agonist and antagonist in adduction at the shoulder

A

Lattimus Dorsi - agonist
Deltoid - antagonist

24
Q

How might a warm up affect the skeletal muscle tissue of the golfer

A

Increase blood flow
Increasing muscular elasticity
Reducing risk of injury

25
Q

What is the agonist in election of the spine

A

Agonist - erector spinae
Agonist - rectus abodimus

26
Q

Define blood pressure

A

The force of blood against arteries

27
Q

What is angular motion

A

is movement of a part of a body part in a circular path about an axis of rotation.

28
Q

Explain how a motor unit transfers a neural impulse into muscular contraction

A

Dendrites receive electrical impulses
Axon transmits action potential towards muscle fibre
At neuromuscular junction acetylcholine flows into the synaptic cleft to help impulse pass from motor neurone into muscle fibre
If impulse is big enough muscle fibres will contract

29
Q

What is isotonic contraction

A

Where the muscle changes in length while tension increases the mains constant

30
Q

What is isotonic contraction

A

Where the muscle changes in length while tension increases the mains constant
