Framework outiline
Allows for upright posture-help fight gravity. Bones provide a solid framework for the body
Protection outline
Protection of vital organs such as heart, lungs and brain via rib cage and skull
Adequate body posture
Muscles are continually in a state of tone that gives them the ability to maintain upright posture when awake
Essential bodily functions
Involuntary muscles that function continuously and preserve our ongoing body needs
Role of ATP
Energy is contained in high energy bonds and is released when the bonds is broken. ATP is converted into ADP. All muscle contractions results from energy released during splitting of 3rd phosphate molecule
For contraction to continue beyond a time
ATP must be resynthesised
By products of ATP-CP
None
By products of anaerobic glycolysis
H+ ions fatiguing
By products of aerobic
CO2, water and heat
Recovery for ATP-CP
Passive: 50% in 30s
100%: 3-5 mins
Anaerobic glycolysis recovery
Active in order to increase oxygen to muscles
Aerobic energy system recovery
Active if anaerobic glycolysis system also contributed
Passive and eating glycogen if event was longer and slower
Anaerobic vs aerobic pathways
Anaerobic: low yield of ATP, doesn’t require 02, only resystnhesises ATP for a short duration, produces muscular fatiguing by-products e.g H+ ions
Aerobic: high yield of ATP, requires O2, can resynthesis ATP for long duration, cannot resynthesise ATP for high intensity efforts
Soft tissue
When connective tissue or muscle fibres cannot cope with the stress being placed on them or a joint is overextended
Soft tissue
When connective tissue or muscle fibres cannot cope with the stress being placed on them or a joint is overextended
Open wound
When the skin is damaged
Generally occurs via direct blow
Fracture structure injured
Bone
Dislocation structure injured
Joint
Possible cause fracture
Direct trauma to area e.g blow or indirect trauma e.g broken clavicle
Possible cause of dislocation
Excessive movement of a joint
Signs and symptoms of fractures
Pain, swelling, difficulty in moving
What injury damages both hard and soft tissue
Dislocation
Ligaments joint bone to bone and dliscation occurs at joint and involves forming joint being displaced
Signs and symptoms dislocation
Deformity, loss of movement, pain
Shin splits description
Pain felt anywhere along tibia from knee to ankle
