What does fundamental mean in skill based?
Basic skills that are required for movement that are critical to establishing the foundation for participation in many sports and physical activities.
What do the fundamental skills include?
Running
Jumping
Catching
Throwing
Hopping
Striking
Balance
Coordination
What does functional mean?
To be capable of completing the task at hand.
When using the word function we are saying that something has a purpose so when referring to sport it means that action is purposeful.
What does Functional Training do?
1 - Prepares the Athlete to perform
2- Improve Sport Specific Movement Patterns
3 - Movement Development
What does Dysfunction mean?
1 - This is defined as an ‘abnormality’ or impairment in the operation of a specified bodily organ or system
2 - Abnormal movement pattern
3 - Inability to perform specific actions due to poor movement quality.
What does screening mean?
This is used to describe the process of detecting the presence of movement pattern dysfunction or muscle imbalance.
There are different tests to identify different things
What is the purpose of screening?
It identifies the preferred pattern of movement that is used to complete a common and basic movement.
Helps us to establish underlying imbalances or dysfunction.
This then allows the coach to set up a rehabilitation program which may include soft tissue treatment from physios, specialised exercises and different patterns of movement.
What does muscle balance mean?
Describes the relative equality of muscle length or size, or strength or power.
Links to agonist, antagonist and synergistic muscles
Contralateral limbs
Dominant and non dominant sides
Right and left limbs
What does muscle imbalance mean?
Deviation from what is considered a normal relative equality.
What does muscle imbalance relate to?
Muscle integrity, length, size, stability, activation pattern, strength, power or function.
Imbalance also may be between muscle groups such as the hamstrings and the quadriceps and their relative strength or between one limb and another.
What is muscle balance?
Muscle balance is seen as a basic requirement for normal functioning and affection moving.
What factors occur muscle imbalances?
Muscle imbalances usually occur in day to day life. Such as working, aging and as a result of injury and constant training.
What is structural adaptation?
The process of conditioning focuses on developing the muscle and the capacity of that muscle.
Focuses primarily on the development of the an actual structure of muscle.
One sporting example of structural adaptation?
Body building.
What is the sensorimotor system?
The interaction of the muscular, nervous and articular systems, which relate to the bone and joints of the body.
They all should when in balance, work together to effect both static and dynamic postural control and efficient movement.
