If a person performs a biceps dumbbell curl, and the weight of the dumbbell is 20 lbs., the length of the forearm is 30 cm., and the length of the muscle insertion to the perpendicular line of pull (i.e., force arm) is 4 cm., what force does the biceps brachii have to produce to move the dumbbell at this point?

150 lbs = F F x FA = R x RA

Given that the weight of the dumbbell in the above example is 10 lbs. (R = 10 lbs.), the length of the resistance arm is 20 in. (RA = 20 in.), and the length of the force arm is 1 in. (FA = 1 in.), what is the muscular force (F) in lbs. that needs to be applied to move the dumbbell?

200 lbs = F FA x F = RA x R

Briefly describe/explain the Principle of Overload:

A muscle/muscle group increases in strength in direct proportion to the overload placed on it. Overload can be modified by changing one or a combination of the exercise variables, being frequency, intensity, duration, and periodization.

What joint does impingement of the supraspinatus occur under?

AC joint

What is the name of the fossa on the hip bone that articulates with the femoral head?

Acetabulum

What is the name of the shoulder socket that articulates with the humeral head?

Glenoid fossa

Briefly describe/explain the Principle of Specificity:

It is strongly related to the SAID principle. The components of physical fitness, such as muscular strength, muscular endurance, and flexibility are not general body characteristics but rather are specific to each body area and muscle group. This infers that the specific needs of the individuals must be addressed when making an exercise program.

Seated calf raises.

How can you isolate the gastrocnemius?

Standing calf raises due to lengthening of the muscle.
