Definitions
Strength Kinetics |
Strength: The maximum force that a muscle can develop during a single contraction.
Kinetics: The study of forces. |
|
Definitions
Force: |
Force: A term used to assess strength. It is the agent that produces a change in the state of rest of an object.
Force=mass x acceleration. (1RM) |
|
Definitions
Torque: |
Represents the rotational force of an arm around an axis. Torque=force x moment arm (Altered with biomechanics, but used synonmously with strength.)
|
|
Definitions
Work: |
Work: The magnitude of a force acting on an object through the distance the force acts.
Work = force x distance. |
|
Definitions
Power: |
Rate of performing work. Power = work/time.
|
|
Definitions
Endurance: |
the ability of a muscle to generate forces over a certain period of time. Measured in peak performances over time and not a single peak performance as in 1RM.
|
|
Resistance Training
big picture |
In order to lift a weight, the group of muscles must overcome the weight of the limb and external object/dumbell (force) through a range of motion (work) acting along an arm or leg around a joint (torque) in a specific time frame (power).
This is resistance training. |
|
RESISTANCE TRAINING
Repetition Maximum- |
the amount of weight an individual can lift for a certain number of repetitions
|
|
RESISTANCE TRAINING
1 RM |
the maximum amount of weight an individual can lift for 1 repetition
|
|
Muscle Length-Tension Relationship
Starling’s Law: |
The optimum length for contraction is near the midpoint between maximally short and maximally long because actin and myosin can bind most effectively in a midlength postion.
|
|
Muscle Length-Tension Relationship
Active Insufficiency |
the inability of a muscle to generate significant active tension when it is maximally shortened.
|
|
Muscle Length-Tension Relationship
Passive Insufficiency |
the inability to allow joints to move through the full available range of motion due to lack of sufficient muscle length or muscle-tendon length.
|
|
Muscle Tension-Velocity Relationship
big picture with concentric contractions |
The tension produced during concentric contraction decreases as the movement velocity increases because myosin and actin cannot bind efficiently during high velocity movements.
Therefore, if the goal is to increase concentric contraction, keep the movements slow and in control. |
|
Muscle Tension-Velocity Relationship
big picture concerning eccentric contractions |
The tension produced during eccentric contraction increases and the velocity increases and then plateaus or slightly decreases.
For eccentric contraction, keep the weight high and “lower” the weight slow and in control. |
|
Muscle Fiber Arrangement
The force the muscle can produce is directly proportional to the...? |
... cross sectional area. For example: A pennate muscle (gastrocnemius) has a greater ability to generate tension capacity or a tonic contraction.
|
|

The ability of the nervous system to coordinate improved strength. Agonist, Antagonist, Synergists need to be activated to produce increasing strength. Increase in strength in the initial stages is probably most associated with motor planning.
|
|

: The ability of the muscular system to develop increased capacity for strength.
|
|

|
Indications:
Decreased muscle performance weakness that affects functional activities post surgical weakness neurological impairment deconditioning, postural impairments effects of poor bodymechanics or, any unequal force distribution within the body. |
|
Precautions for Strength Training
|
Pre-Cautions:
Healing Timeframes Disease Status Cardiovascular Status Pregnancy Avoid Valsalva Procedure Pain and Inflammation should be guiding factors |
|
Contra-Indications for Strength Training
|
Contra-Indications:
Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness: Due to muscle damage caused by overload. Usually peaks at 24-48 hours and minimal to moderate exercise is prescribed during the healing process. Any surgical contra-indication to exercise. |
|
Age-Related Considerations at Pre- Puberty
|
Pre-puberty:
Only 20% of a newborn child’s body mass is muscle. Very little hormones are present, so boys and girls have equal ability to produce strength increases. Focus should be on the neurologic aspects of training. |
|
Age-Related Considerations at PUBERTY
|
Puberty
Males will increase 27%-40% of their body mass in muscle. Females anatomic structure changes at the center of gravity or pelvis. Epiphyses remain sensitive and liable to injury Hormonal changes are evident. Training should be moderate. |
|
Age-Related Considerations at ADULTHOOD
|
Strength potential is at its highest in the 18-30 year period.
Good neurologic, morphologic and physiologic adaptation occurs. A balanced training program is inidicated with emphasis on strength increases from normal or balancing effects of work positioning. |
|
Age-Related Considerations at ADVANCED AGE
|
Medical Considerations become an issue
Deconditioning due to decreased activity occur Hormonal changes causing osteoporosis etc. Neurologic changes begin occuring causing problems with balance, coordination, proprioception Training should focus on vigorous use of all functional positions and counter acting deficits caused by aging consideration. |
