Stretch intolerance

An individual's decreased ability to withstand stretching forces due to injury or disease.

Stretch tolerance

An individual's increased ability to withstand stretching forces from repeated bouts of flexibility training.

Which of the following describes the type of resistance that stops motion of the muscle as soon as a stretch begins?

Blocked

Which of the following would cause visceral motility?

Cesarean section (C-section) scar

Which of the following helps the fitness professional to address a client who is hypomobile after an assessment?

Flexibility and stretching

Which of the following receptors causes autogenic inhibition in skeletal muscles as a result of tensed collagen

Golgi tendon organs

Which of the following conditions could cause excessive tension in the central nervous system (CNS), leading to a referral to a medical professional?

History of stroke

Hypomobility

Less than optimal range of motion.

How does the stretch reflex prevent injury?

Mechanoreceptors detect quick and powerful changes in tissue length and cause a contraction in the muscle.

Hypermobility

More than optimal range of motion.

Flexibility

Normal extensibility (ability to stretch) of all soft tissues (contractile and non-contractile) that allow the complete range of motion (ROM) of a joint.

What type of fascia encases all bones in the body?

Periosteum

Which of the following is decreased as a result of excessive tension within the muscular and fascial systems?

Range of motion

Why is it important to assess a client's breathing when constructing a stretching program?

Stretching sessions have more desirable outcomes when breathing techniques are optimized.

Tissue resistance

The amount of force the fitness professional manually feels (or lack thereof) when passively moving the client's body, region, or limb during assisted stretching.

Which of the following defines biotensegrity?

The relationship between tension and compression elements that describe force vector concepts applied to biology and the human body.

Biotensegrity

The tension and compression elements that describe force vector concepts applied to biology and the human body.

What is the goal of assisted stretching during a dynamic warm-up for fitness training?

To increase nervous system activity without pre-exhaustion

Stretching

can improve flexibility and mobility. elongating the soft tissues to improve extensibility.

functional anatomy

collection of parts that mechanically move and work together to perform tasks.

DOS

dynamic oscillatory stretching

Regional Interdependence (RI) model

expanded the biomechanical model to include a total-body approach that accounts for regions away from the site of dysfunction.

Flexibility

having the optimal amount of extensibility in the fascia and muscular systems to adequately perform a physical task.

Mobility

used to describe joint motion
