Across
- 3. Occurs when synergists take over function for a weak or inhibited prime mover
- 4. plane that splits body into right and left
- 8. gentle pressure applied to sheath covering muscles to release knots
- 13. Designed to improve muscle imbalances and altered arthrokinematics, static stretching
- 14. of motion capability of a joint to go through the complete spectrum of movement
- 18. Integrated, multiplanar soft-tissue extensibility with optimum neuromuscular control through the full range of motion, dynamic stretching
- 19. Altered forces at the joint, resulting in abnormal joint movement and proprioception
Down
- 1. muscle acts around a moveable joint to produce a motion similar to or in combination with agonist muscles
- 2. The ability of the nervous system to properly coordinate muscular action
- 5. muscle acts as opposing muscle to agonists, usually contracting as a means of returning the limb to its original resting position
- 6. plane that splits the body into front and back
- 7. Caused by a tight agonist, which inhibits its functional antagonist
- 9. Passively taking a muscle to the point of tension and holding the stretch for 20-30 seconds
- 10. Uses agonist and synergists to dynamically move the joint into a range of motion
- 11. Designed to improve the extensibility of soft tissue and increase neuromuscular efficiency, active-isolated stretching
- 12. plane that splits the body into top and bottom
- 15. The ability to move a joint through its complete range of motion
- 16. Uses the force production of a muscle and the body’s momentum to take a joint through the full range of motion
- 17. Muscles typically associated with the movement itself and are sometimes referred to as prime movers
