Chapter 6 Flashcards
(24 cards)
Wearing shoes with a high heels for an extended period of time can lead to
- Tightness in the gastrocnemius, Soleus , Achilles’ tendon
- Causing postural imbalance
- Decreased dorsiflexion
Body Composition
Body composition refers to the relative percentage of body weight that is fat versus fat free tissue
Blood pressure
Blood pressure is the pressure of the circulating blood against the walls of the blood vessels after the blood is ejected from the heart
A ratio greater then __ for women and greater then __ for men may put these individuals at risk for a number of disease
- 80 for women
0. 95 for men
YMCA 3-minute step test
Designed to estimate an individual’s cardio respiratory fitness level on the basis of a sub maximal boy of stair climbing at a set pace for 3 mins
Rocket Walk test
Designed to estimate cardiovascular starting point
Pronation distortion syndrome
A postural distortion syndrome characterized by foot probation (flat feet) and adducted and internally rotated knees
Lower crossed syndrome
A postural distortion syndrome characterized by an anterior tilt to the pelvis (arched lower back)
Upper crossed syndrome
A postural distortion syndrome characterized by a forward head and rounded shoulders
The Kinetic checkpoints
- Foot and ankle
- Knee
- Lumbo- pelvic hip complex
- Shoulders
- Head and cervical spine
Overheard Squat assessment
Designed to assess dynamic flexibility, core strength, balance and overall neuromuscular control
Single leg squat assessment
This traditional movement assessment also assesses dynamic flexibility, core , strength, balance and overall neuromuscular control
Pushing assessment
Assessed movement efficiency and potential muscle imbalances during pushing movements
Pulling assessment
To assess movement efficiency and potential muscle imbalances during pulling movement
Push up assessment
Measures endurance of the upper body, primarily the pushing muscles
Davis test
Measures upper extremity agility and stabilization
Shark skill test
This is designed to assess lower extremity agility and neuromuscular control
Upper extremity strength assessment
Designed to estimate the one rep maximum on overall upper body strength of the pressing musculature
Lower extremity strength assessment:squat
Designed to estimate the one repetition squat maximum and overall lower body strength
Example Objective information
- Physiologic assessments
- Body composition testing
- Cardiorespiratory assessments
- performance assessments
- static and dynamic postural assessment
Example of subjective information
General and medical history
Occupation , lifestyle, medical , and person information
Blood pressure
Is the pressure of the circulating blood against the walls of the blood vessels after blood is ejected from the heart
HRR Method
Also know as the karvinen method is the method of establishing training intensity on the basis of the difference between a clients predicted maximal heart rate and their resting heart rate
Body mass index
Is a tight assessment based on the concept that a persons weight should be proportional to their height
