  • Front
  • Back
Sagittal Plane
Divides body into left and right halves, medial lateral axis, flexion and extension
Frontal Plane
Divides body into front and back halves, anteroposterior axis, abduction and adduction
Transverse Plane
Divides body into superior and inferior halves, superoinferior axis, pronation and supination
Osteokinematic motion
Motion of the bones
Arthrokinematic motion
Motion of the articular surfaces of the joint; spin, roll, glide
Concentric muscle action
Against gravity, force generated by muscle is greater than force of external load
Eccentric muscle action
With gravity, force generated by muscle is less than the force of the external load
Isometric muscle action
No movement, force generated by muscle is equal to the force of the external load
Parallel muscle fibers
"Strap tight," shorten over long range of motion
Pennate muscle fibers
Stuff a lot of muscle fibers in small space, contract over short distance with great force
Stretch reflex
Rapid stretch occurs, an impulse is sent to CNS, motor neurons of muscle activated, contraction occurs. ex: the quick squat before a jump stretches the muscles and they are able to generate more force than before
Golgi tendon organs
When stretch threshold is reached, an impulse is sent to CNS causing the muscles to relax, activating antagonist muscles as protective mechanism. The GTO create inverse stretch reflex to protect us from excessive contraction
Force Velocity relationship
As resistance of force increases, speed of force generated by muscles decreases
Two ways to increase force production of a muscle
1. Recruit more motor units
2. Increase the frequency of stimulation
Muscle Fiber Recruitment
Type 1, Type 2A; If Type 1 muscle fibers hit threshold, all contract, then recruit to Type 2A
Length tension
When the muscle is contracted and elongated real long, it takes alot of resistance and force to make a muscle stretch any further
Active insufficiency
Unable to reach the contraction force because of the limit of muscle length. ex: strength of elbow flexors decreases as shoulder joint is more flexed
Passive insufficiency
Unable to reach full range of motion because of the limit of muscle length. ex: difficult to reach toes with knee extended as compared to that with knee flexed
1st class lever
force, axis, resistance; ex: triceps brachii extending the elbow
2nd class lever
axis, resistance, force; long force arm used to overcome some big load. ex: standing performing a calf raise
3rd class lever
axis, force, resistance; long resistance arm used to project something long distance. ex: biceps brachii flexing the elbow
If in equilibrium...
E*EA=R*RA

Concentric action, E*EA>R*RA
Eccentric action, E*EA<R*RA
Mechanical Advantage
EA/RA or R/E; if you've got a longer E arm, you've got a mechanical advantage. To increase MA, double length of effort arm or decrease resistance arm
Newton's Law of Intertia
An object in motion will remain in motion or an object at rest will remain at rest unless acted on by an external force. ex: gravity on baseball, runner applying force to stop on track
Newton's Law of Acceleration
A change in the acceleration of an object occurs in the same direction as the force that caused it- inversely proportional to the mass of the object. ex: force to run at half speed is less than force to run at top speed, to throw a call with speed it is necessary to accelerate the part of the body holding the ball
Newton's Law of Reaction
For every reaction there is an equal and opposite reaction. ex: force that you use to sprint on a track- ground pushes back to push you forward, running on sand harder than on a track
Ways to enhance equilibrium, maximize stability and acheive balance
1. Center of gravity falls withing base of support
2. Increase size of base
3. Increase mass
4. Decrease height
5. Place center of gravity towards expected force
6. Increase friction
7. Rotation about an axis
