Nathans puzzle

2. a rhythmic bouncing action that stretches the muscles a little further each time. Once a popular technique this form of stretching is rarely used.
6. a gradual slow stretching of the muscle through the entire range of motion, then holding the position for 20-30 seconds
7. The process of restoring function through programmed exercise, to enable a return to competition.
8. Trying to prevent injuries before they occur, through a preventative management program
9. An increase in the size of muscle tissue
10. the ability of a joint to move freely through a full range of motion
12. moving the joints beyond the normal range in motion
13. A type of training in which muscles are worked until they reach their capacity; once the athlete is able to maintain that capacity, the workload is increased to further build strength and endurance
14. Weakness and wasting away of muscle tissue
17. A program, beginning 6-8 weeks prior to sports participation, that allows the body to gradually adapt to the demands to be placed on it adaption the systematic acceptation of exercise stress sufficient to reduction of muscle fatigue but not so severe that injury will occur
20. an increased demand on the lungs, heart and other body body systems; also known as aerobic or endurance training
21. ability of muscle groups to respond to targeted training, so that increased strength is gained in that muscle only
22. A form of Dynamic exercise accomplished by a training partner

1. an activity that causes tension in the muscle to increase but does not cause the muscle to shorten
3. Fiber in a motor unit that produces quick and forceful contributors, these are easily fatigued
4. a combined relaxing and contracting of the muscles; an initial isolation contraction against maximum resistance is held at the end of the range of motion, followed by relaxation and passive stretching
5. an activity that causes the muscle to contract and shorten
11. ability of muscles to sustain high-intensity, aerobic exercise
15. Progressive Overwork of muscles at a controlled, increased rate, to achieve consistent gains in strength
16. Fiber in a motor unit that requires a long period of time to generate force, these fibers are resistant to fatigue
18. a type of exercise in which a machine is used to control the speed of contraction within the range of motion
19. the use of 6-10 completed exercise one right after the other, each exercise is done by performing a specific number of repetitions or for a specific period of time before moving or exercise
22. a motor unit that requires a long period of time to generate force; fibers resistant to fatigue
