Exercise Prescription

4. contraindication for stretching
7. decreased mobility or restricted motion at a single joint or series or joints
8. musculotendinous unit has shortened with no muscle pathology present
9. the contractile unit of muscle
12. a type of isotonic muscle contraction that involves shortening of the muscle
14. changes in the connective tissue of the muscle/periarticular fibers that create adhesions between tissues (scar tissue)
16. intra-articular pathology
17. type of energy system utilized during maximal velocity plyometric
18. a reversible condition in which an exercising muscle is no longer able to generate or sustain power output
20. (abbreviation) muscle soreness, stiffness, swelling, reduced force typically peaking 1-2 days post exercise and resolving within a week
21. this type of resistance exercise is advantageous during early rehabilitation and allows for more controlled joint movement, fine tuned resistance, and prevents compensation
22. this type of exercise is usually performed in WB positions
23. this type of exercise allows for the distal segment to move in space and allows for muscle activation primarily on the prime mover

1. hypertonicity associated with CNS lesions
2. the period of time between the stretch and shortening cycles
3. precaution for stretching
5. function of this type of muscle contraction is "fixation"
6. this type of resistance utilizes equipment like free weights or weight machines
10. the adaptive shortening of the muscle-tendon unit and other soft tissues that cross or surround a joint
11. a type of isotonic muscle contraction that involves lengthening of the muscle
13. perceptual assessment of effort where patient estimates number of repetitions they have left in the tank
15. slow twitch fibers (2 words)
19. a type of muscle contraction that has constant velocity of lengthening or shortening
