True

Additionally, to optimize athlete compliance, program design should focus on performance and injury prevention simultaneously

flexometer

An instrument used to measure the change in joint angles

True

Biomechanics is the study of mechanics related to the functional and anatomical analysis of biological systems

retinaculum

Fascia like tissue that holds tendons in place

Technique and general strength

In looking at the Jump Landing Program, Phase 1 of the program begins with this

True

Isometric contraction involves tension developed within the muscle but the joint angles remain constant.

False

Isometric contractions are eccentric or concentric

proprioception

Knowing when a body part is located without looking at it

False

Levers rotate about an axis of rotation as a result of a force being applied to cause movement in the same direction as the resistance

True

Overall the human leverage system is built for speed and range of movement at the expense of force generation

True

T or F: Structurally, the proximal attachment of a muscle or the part that attaches closest to the midline or center of the body is known as the origin

gaster

The central, fleshy portion of the muscle

Medial and lateral halves

The frontal plane divides the body into these

Incorrect landing techniques, Lack of balance, Poor ankle stability, Insufficient strength

The inability for female athletes to correctly attenuate high jump landing impact forces through muscle contraction has been linked to these

decrease the amount of resistance, apply the force further from the axis, move the resistance closer to the axis

These could be done to reduce the amount of force needed to move a lever

the center of gravity falls outside the base of support

This is not among the general factors that positively affect the achievement of balance

contralateral

on the opposite side of the body

Kinetics

study of forces associated with the motion of a body

first class

Elbow extension where the triceps applies force to olecranon process in extending the non-supported forearm at the elbow is an example of which type of lever arrangement

a body in motion tends to remain in motion at the same speed in a straight line unless acted on by a force

Newton's Law of Inertia

True

Structurally, the distal attachment or the part that attaches farthest from the midline or center of the body is known as the insertion

origin

Structurally, what's the proximal attachment of a muscle or the part that attaches closest to the midline or center of the body

Proprioception

Subconscious mechanism by which body is able to regulate posture and movement

Proper technique

When implementing any type of jump-landing training, it is imperative that the strength and conditioning professional emphasizes

bilateral

both sides

Kinematics

description of motion and includes consideration of time, displacement, velocity, acceleration, and space factors of a system's motion

inferior movement

effect of the direction of the lateral translation movement on cusp height

lumbar lordosis

exaggerated concavity in the lumbar region

V, VII, IX, & X

except for some propioceptive function, these are primarily motor

kyphosis

excessive outward curvature of the spine, causing hunching of the back.

Mineral Storage

not a function performed by the skeletal system

Ipsilateral

on the same side of the body

Dorsiflexion

the motion of bringing the dorsum of the foot closer to the anterior leg

anterior

the thigh is ___ to the ankle

lever

type of machine most common in the musculoskeletal system arrangements of the human body

Mechanics

- Study of physical actions of forces - Mechanics is divided into: statics (study of systems that are in a constant state of motion) and dynamics (study of systems in motion with acceleration)

Biomechanics

- Study of the mechanics as it relates to the functional and anatomical analysis of biological systems and especially humans - necessary to study the body's mechanical characteristics and principles to understand its movements

retinaculum

In certain places throughout the body, such as around joints like the wrist & ankle, fascial tissue forms this to retain tendons close to the body.

III, IV, VI, XI, & XII

have both motor and sensory

I, II, & VIII

sensory cranial nerves

a change in the acceleration of a body occurs in the same direction as the force that caused it

the Law of Acceleration

Study of motion of human movement

the correct definition of Kinesiology

eccentric

this type of muscle contraction is usually utilized in causing an object's deceleration
