General Warm Up Period
5 to 10 minutes of slow activity
Specific Warm UP
incorporates movements similar to the movement in the athlete's sport
Range of Motion
degree of movement that occurs at a join
Flexibility
Measure of ROM, has static and dynamic components
Static Flexibility
range of possible movement about a joint without muscle contraction
Dynamic flexibility
refers to the available ROM during active movements and therefore voluntary muscular actions
Ball and socket joints
move in all anatomical planes (shoulder and hip)
Ellipsoidal joint
movement primarily in sagittal and frontal planes (wrist)
Hinge Joint
movements primarily in sagittal plane (knee)
Fibrosis
fibrous connective tissue replaces degenerating muscle figers
Elasticity
the ability to return to original resting length after a passive stretch
Plasticity
tendency to assume a new and great length after a passive stretch
autogenic inhibition
caused by the relaxation reflex of GTO
reciprocal inhibition
relational occurring in muscle opposing the muscle experiencing increased tension
active stretch
occurs when the person stretching supplies the force of the stretch
passive stretch
when a partner or stretching machine provides external force to cause or enhance a stretch
static stretch
slow and constant with end position held for 30 seconds
ballistic stretch
involves active muscular effort and uses a bounding type movement which in which the end position is not held
dynamic stretch / mobility drills
a type of functionally based stretching exercise that uses sport-specific movements to prepare the body for activity
Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF)
involves both passive and active muscle actions and relies on muscular inhibition
agonist contraction
concentric muscle action of the agonist muscle to achieve reciprocal inhibition
hold relax
passive stretch 10 seconds, contract against 6 seconds, move further
contract relax
passive 10 seconds, then contract through full ROM, followed by further passive stretch for 10 seconds
hold relax with agonist contraction
identical to hold relax, but athlete activiley moves into further ROM
