What are two main factors that relate to a muscle's ability to create motion?
Length of Fibers
Length of Moment Arm
The larger the moment the ______ amount of motion that is produced.
smaller
What are important factors related to muscle strength?
Muscle Size
Muscle Moment Arm
Stretch
Contraction Velocity
Fiber Recruitment
Fiber Types
In vivo, where do we tend to function in the length-tension curve?
The middle part of the curve, or the middle part of our range.
What is the inability of a muscle that spans two or more joints to be stretched sufficiently to produce a full range of motion in all the joints simultaneously?
Passive Insufficiency
What is defined when a muscle reaches a point where it cannot shorten any farther it is has reached?
Active Insufficiency
What are important factors related to muscle strength?
Contraction Velocity
Fiber Recruitment
Fiber Types
What is defined when the length of the muscle does not change because the tension produced never exceeds the resistance (load)
Isometric
What is defined when tension is produced in response to a relatively constant load, and the muscle fibers change length, resulting in movement
Isotonic
What are the two types of isotonic contraction?
Concentric
Eccentric
What is a contraction where the speed stays the same?
Isokinetic
What will potentially happen if a muscle is put on prolonged stretch?
Hypertrophy (Addition of sarcomeres)
What will potentially happen if a muscle is put on prolonged shortening?
Atrophy (Loss of sarcomeres)
