active contraction
during ... of the muscle, the muscle spindle increases its firing rate and the golgi tendon organ becomes slightly increased
stretch
what are receptors located within the laced network of collagen tissue fibers at the musculotendinous junctions of the muscles?
golgi tendon organs
when the golgi tendon is stimulated, this ... motor firing to this muscle and ... muscle firing to its antagonist muscle group
inhibits

inflammation
... are a component of the fusimotor system, the system by which the CNS controls muscle spindle sensitivity
gamma motoneurons
... regions in the muscle also have reduced gamma and alpha input
injured
what type of muscle fibers?
-smaller
-more mitochondria and blood capillaries
-more content of myoglobin in the sarcoplasm (carries additional available oxygen for use by the mito)
-red coloration
-function: postoral
-color: red
-metabolism: oxidative
-fatigability: slow
-spindle number: high
-reaction: shortening
slow twitch muscle fibers
what type of muscle fibers?
-metabolically and functionally designed for more ballistic activity such as power movements performed over a short duration of time
-function: phasic
-color: white
-metabolism: glycolytic
-fatigability: rapid
-spindle number: moderate
-reaction: weakening
fast twitch fibers
muscle contraction (is or is not) an all or none action?
is not
what is this?
-increase in the diameter of the muscle fibers along with increased sarcoplasm and metabolic supportive matrix. This is formed by the forceful activation of the muscle fibers against at least 75% of its maximal tension
hypertrophy
what is this called?
-decrease in diameter of the muscle fibers with reduced strength, fiber size, and metabolic support
atrophy
what is the most significant contributor to atrophy?
denervation
what is this?
-change in the tension (tautness) of a muscle without approximation of muscle origin and insertion

-patient's activation of the antagonist muscle to the restricted muscle against the physician's counterforce is known as ...
-post-isometric relaxation
-reciprocal inhibition
isotonic contraction:
-...: contraction of muscle resulting in approximation of origin and insertion (getting closer)
-...: lengthening of the muscle during contraction (getting farther away, pull and stretch)
-these methods are commonly used to build muscle strength
concentric
eccentric
what is this?
-contraction of a muscle against resistance while an external force lengthens the muscle.
-this method is thought to work through activation of the golgi receptor reflexes and is used to tear down adhesions in the tissues. this has the potential to cause injury in the tissues and is not commonly used
isolytic contraction
what is this?
-constant velocity during either concentric or eccentric contraction of a muscle group
-used to build muscle strength while also controlling the movement
isokinetic (isotonic) contraction
what is the end result of the mechanisms previously outlined, that protection of the injured muscle group requires extra effort from other muscle fibers and groups of muscles to compensate for the injured muscle fibers or altered joint mechanics?
re-orchestration of muscle efforts
