74
flexibility
ability to move a joint through its entire range of motion
75
factors influencing flexibility
-genetics -connective tissue elasticity -composition of tendons or skin surrounding the joint -joint structure -strength of opposing muscle groups -body composition -age -sex -activity level -previous injuries -existing medical issues -repetitive movements/pattern overload
76
flexibility training rationale
-correcting muscle imbalances -increasing joint ROM -decreasing excessive muscular tension -minimizing joint stress -improving extensibility of musculotendinous junctions -improving neuromuscular efficiency -improving general function -maintain normal functional length of muscles
77
self myofascial release
gentle force to adhesions helps realign bundled fibers back with direction of muscle or fascia -if corrective in nature= target overactive muscle groups -find tender spots and hold for >30 seconds then gently roll -part of warm up or cool down
78
static stretching
-passively taking muscle to point of tension and holding -hold for >30 seconds, 1-3 sets -if corrective, focus on overactive muscles -part of warm up or cool down -contraction of the antagonist while holding the stretch can be helpful
79
proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation
-includes both stretching and contraction of targeted muscle groups -typically employed with the contract-relax method -isometrically contract target muscle for 6 seconds -relax for 2-3 seconds -move into final stretch for 10-30 seconds -can be for warm up or cool down
80
dynamic stretching
-force production of a muscle and body momentum are used to move joints through full ROM -1-2 sets of 10-15 reps, 3-10 exercises -best done in warm up -avoid performing if postural distortions or movement dysfunctions are present
81
core training
-shoulders to hips -movers and stabilizers -reduces pain -improve function -improve performance
82
balance training
-maintain bodies position in space -dynamic balance -can help with injury -improves performance of ADLs
