Tissue in your body is used to help your body move to bend over and pick up a box that is on the floor. Muscular tissue is used to move muscles and bones and connective tissue connects the muscles/tendons to the bones to help with movement. Nervous tissue is also used. It’s needed to tell you to pick up the box and tell your muscles and bones to move the way you do to bend over to pick the box up. First, the rectus abdominus pulls forward to bend over, the latissimus dorsi and gluteus maximus…

Common symptoms of the full can and empty can test are weakness and pain, therefore both tests need to be used to test for rotator cuff injuries. If pain, weakness, or both are present, these tests are thought to be positive. Since pain modifies muscle strength, there is a concern about the reliability of the empty can test.1 This concern arises because of the internal rotation of the humerus results in impingement, therefore potentially decreases the usefulness of the test. With the empty can…

First apply the stirrups using white tape to the sides of the distal limb (can be medial and lateral sides or dorsal and palmar sides of the limb depending on the injury). The stirrups should extend from a point at or above the carpus or tarsus. Then you would apply a mesh like cover on the injured limb to prevent discomfort for the patient. Then a minimum of 2 layers of snugly placed cast padding is applied. Once the cast padding is applied we would then apply the Stretch gauze. When applying…

Healthy joint The knee joint is a synovial joint and connects the femur to the tibia and consists of two joints the tibiofemoral joint, which joins the tibia to the femur and the patellofemoral joining the kneecap to the femur. These two joints work together to form a hinge joint allowing the knee to bend and straighten and to also rotate slightly from side to side. Muscles There are two main muscles groups of the knee, the hamstrings, quadriceps and muscles of the calf all work to flex,…

fundamental movements or primary movements which occur where the joints are located between the body segments. These movements are flexion (frontal plane, and shoulder) extension, abduction, adduction, rotation, and circumduction. As explained in our text, flexion is a decrease in the angle between two body segments, whereas extension is an increase in the angle between two body segments. Abduction is a movement away from the body, whereas adduction is a movement toward the midline of the…

The deadlift is one of the best compound movements used to strengthen leg, hip, back, and torso muscles. There are several variations of the deadlift, which are often utilized depending on the goals, needs, and abilities of the individual. This brief review will explore the different variations of the deadlift other than the standard conventional and sumo stance deadlift. The main variations used by powerlifters and regular gym goers are the conventional and sumo stance deadlifts. The main…

Spinous process of T4-T12 Insertion: Upper: Posterior aspect of the lateral clavicle. Middle: Medial border if the acromion process and the upper boarder of the acromion Lower: Base of the scapular spine. Action: Upper: Scapula elevation and extension of the head at neck Middle: Elevation, upward rotation and adduction of scapula Lower:…

Consider the arm. The biceps and the triceps are on two sides of the upper arm bone (humerus) and attach to the fore arm bones (radius and ulna) from the inside and outside of the elbow joint. Contraction of the bicep causes your arm to fold. Contraction of the triceps causes your arm to extend , your biceps muscle is attached to your shoulder blade at one end and to your ulna in your forearm at the other end. When the biceps contracts, it shortens and pulls the ulna toward the shoulder blade…

takeoff. This leg will also reach full extension prior to the other leg, this means that it will contribute more force to the jump than the other as the bioanalysis will show. As well as the legs extending and muscles and joints flexing the torso will also extent to maximize the force able to be produced by the takeoff. According to () “The timing of the joint movements during the takeoff consists of shoulder flexion, trunk extension, and hip and knee extension, with the final movement to…

Introduction: The Effect of Running Shoes on Lower Extremity Joint Torques, explains the two-condition experimental comparison of running shoes on 68 healthy young adults. The experiment measures data related to joint torques, specifically at the hip, knee, and ankle. The experimental process included participants first running on a treadmill barefoot, and again with running shoes. Pressure, rotation torque and joint torque were measured and compared between the two testing methods. The…
