SAQ exercises present the body with numerous scenarios requiring coordinated movements, reaction to various stimuli, and quick bursts of speed.
-SAQ training improves a client’s ability to accelerate, decelerate, and dynamically stabilize the entire body during high-velocity movements in all planes of motion (such as running and cutting). In addition, SAQ training stimulates the nervous system to respond more efficiently to demands placed on it and enhances muscular recruitment and coordination

biceps brachii
31
-occurs when the contractile force (i.e., the force developed within the muscle) is greater than the resistive force, resulting in a visible shortening of the muscle.
-synonymous with acceleration and can be observed in many movements, such as jumping upward and the “lifting” phase during a resistance training exercise.
- “positive work” is being done by the muscle as the joint moves through a ROM to move a load against the pull of gravity.
-expend the highest amount of energy when compared to isometric and eccentric muscle actions
- is an isotonic muscle action
A concentric muscle action
32
lumbo-pelvic-hip complex (LPHC),
Core
33
An isometric muscle action
when the contractile force is equal to the resistive force, leading to no visible change in the muscle length
-For example, performing a plank exercise
34
-force is produced as a muscle develops tension while visibly changing in length.
-classified as either eccentric or concentric and represent the lowering and lifting phases of resistance training exercises,
isotonic muscle contraction,
35
An eccentric muscle action
when a muscle develops tension while lengthening
-The muscle lengthens because the external force acting on the muscle (i.e., the source of resistance) is greater than the internal muscle force.
-are more efficient than concentric contractions and require less energy to complete a task, such as lifting a weight
-One reason for this is that fewer motor units are required during the eccentric phase as compared to the concentric phase when the same weight or resistance is used
-synonymous with deceleration and can be observed in many movements, such as landing from a jump or lowering weights during a resistance exercise.
36

Sense the change in muscle length and the speed of length change
Two primary actions of the Muscle spindle
44
Sensory receptors sensitive to change in length of the muscle and the rate of that change.
-a major sensory organ of the muscle composed of microscopic fibers that lie parallel to the muscle fiber.
-When a muscle is stretched, the muscle spindle records the change in muscle length and speed (rate) of length change and sends this information to the central nervous system (CNS)
-The function of the muscle spindle is to help prevent the muscle from stretching too far or too fast.
- helps maintain muscle tone and protects the body from injury
muscle spindle
45
stands for “frequency, intensity, type, time, enjoyment, volume, and progression.”
-Frequency refers to the number of training sessions in a given time period, usually expressed as per week.
-Intensity refers to the level of demand that a given activity places on the body, moderate-intensity is recommended
-Time refers to the length of time engaged in an activity or exercise training session, typically expressed in minutes.
-adults should accumulate 2 hours and 30 minutes (150 minutes) of moderate-intensity aerobic activity (i.e., brisk walking) every week or 1 hour and 15 minutes (75 minutes) of vigorous-intensity aerobic activity (i.e., jogging or running) every week, or an equivalent mix of moderate- and vigorous-intensity aerobic activity
-Type refers to the mode of activity selected.
-three criteria that must be met for an
activity or exercise to be considered
“aerobic” (a) be rhythmic, (b) use large
muscle groups, and (c) be continuous in
nature.
-Enjoyment refers to the amount of pleasure derived from engaging in a specific exercise or activity.
-Volume of exercise represents the total amount of work performed in each timeframe, typically 1 week.
-Progression refers to how an exercise program advances. Exercise protocols should gradually progress in intensity and/or volume to continually challenge the individual.

-An example of condyloid joints is seen in the joints of the fingers (metacarpophalangeal)
Condyloid joints

76
involves exercises that generate quick, powerful movements involving an explosive concentric muscle contraction preceded by an eccentric muscle action

-THREE PHASES OF PLYOMETRIC EXERCISE
Plyometric training
77
THREE PHASES OF PLYOMETRIC EXERCISE
-the eccentric or loading phase,
-the amortization phase or transition phase, -the concentric or unloading phase
78
(deceleration), which describes the preloading or stretching of the agonist muscle.
-in this phase elastic energy is stored, and muscle spindles are stimulated, which sends signals to the central nervous system
eccentric phase
79
also referred to as the transition period or phase, representing the time between the eccentric phase and the initiation of the concentric contraction
-In other words, this phase is the period of time from which the eccentric phase ends to the time when the concentric muscle contraction begins
-his phase is critical to plyometric performance, because the shorter the amortization phase is, the more effective and powerful the subsequent plyometric movement will be
amortization phase,
80
final phase of plyometrics, which represents the body’s response to the events that occurred during the eccentric and amortization phases.
- uses the stored elastic energy from the eccentric phase to either enhance muscle force production or dissipate the energy as heat.
-Shortening of agonist muscle
concentric phase
81
involve movements in which the distal extremities (hands or feet) are in a constant fixed position, and the force applied by an individual is not great enough to overcome the resistance (such as the ground or an immovable object).
-Examples include push-ups, pull-ups, and squats.
Closed-chain exercises
82
involve movements in which the distal extremities are not in a fixed position, and the force applied by the body is great enough to overcome the resistance (such as barbells or dumbbells).
-Examples include the bench press, lat pulldown, and the machine leg extension exercise.

95
Most motion uses the principle of levers.
-- consists of a rigid bar that pivots around a stationary pivot point (fulcrum).
-In the human body, the fulcrum is the joint axis, bones are the levers, muscles create the motion (effort), and resistance can be the weight of a body part, or the weight of an object
-classified as first, second, and third class, depending on the relations among the fulcrum, the effort, and the resistance
Levers
96
have the fulcrum in the middle, like a seesaw. Nodding the head is an example with the top of the spinal column as the fulcrum
First-class levers
97
have a resistance in the middle with the fulcrum and effort on either side, similar to a load in a wheelbarrow where the axle and wheel are the fulcrum points.
-The body acts as a second-class lever when one engages in a full-body push-up or calf raise.
-Using the calf raise exercise as an example, the ball of the foot is the fulcrum, the body weight is the resistance, and the effort is applied by the calf musculature
Second-class levers
98
have the effort placed between the resistance and the fulcrum.
-The effort always travels a shorter distance and must be greater than the resistance.
-Most limbs of the human body operate as third-class levers.
- An example is the human forearm; the fulcrum is the elbow, the effort is applied by the biceps brachii muscle, and the load is in the hand, such as a dumbbell when performing a biceps curl.
- Another example is the standing hamstring curl, whereby the knee joint is the fulcrum, hamstring muscle is the effort, and resistance is at the ankle.
