3. Describe the direction of the relationship between the Hamstring strength index 60°/s and the Shuttle run test.…
The “guinea pig’s” body had the reaction of soreness and weakness as time increased because the body was using more and more energy as time passed with little rest. The form of pushing that every guinea pig was excelling on the doorframe increased the use of energy on his or her muscles. The outcome and result was that the use of energy on the guinea pig’s muscles lead to weakness, pain, aching, and soreness to his or her upper body arm strength. One thing that was happening inside the body that one wouldn’t necessarily measure or see is that when…
This is an expected finding in a client with a brain attack. This finding does not warrant immediate intervention by the nurse.…
The musculoskeletal response has an effect on the flexibility of the muscles during and after exercise. During exercise I got 18 cm in the sit and reach test and post exercise was 17 cm this shows that exercise has an effect on muscle pliability during acute exercise.…
Record the numbers of time twice without exercise and twice after been exercising. You must try the activity again, doing it the same way and using the same two fingers (thumb and index).…
What is the relationship between structure and function in the selected muscle? (see page 3 of the lesson)…
The Purpose of this exercise is to understand how muscle twitch, contract and react to different activities.…
Evaluate the major muscle groups of the upper and lower limbs and relate their similarities and differences to their function.…
The purpose of this experiment is to determine the response time for dominant and non-dominant hand for visual stimuli, and using only dominant hand to test auditory and tactile response. Also, to test involuntary the response time for the reflex of the knee from calculating the distance. Based on my group hypothesis, we said that visual stimulus dominant hand had a faster response time than non-dominant hand because the dominant hand is use more often thus repetition creates stronger connection. For only dominant we said that auditory response has the fastest reaction time because the auditory stimuli gets process faster compare to tactile and visual that has to travel longer to reach frontal lobe for response decision. For involuntary response,…
The advantages of the test are that it’s very easy to carry out and you can get an instant result, it doesn’t take up too much room, it doesn’t take too long to perform it and you can do it anywhere you want. A big disadvantage is that the grip dynamometer costs 110 pounds which is a lot of money and it’s not realistic that everyone will equip themselves with one of these just to see how strong there forearms are. However the test doesn’t represent our strength in all of the muscles in our body and I believe that a different exercise should be used to test the strength of someone.…
It was confirmed that group 4 did have the greatest increase in heart rate but there was no correlation between the data to prove that group 4 had the biggest difference in blood pressure. To further our data we would look deeper into the correlation between the fitness level of the participants and the difference in their heart rate. For some individuals in our data exercise affected their heart rate, but not as much for others. This is seen in group 4, where individual 10 worked out and still had a higher difference in heart rate then individual 11. Some errors that could have occurred to result in this data could’ve been individual 11 not following the claps to know when to take another step and fell behind causing their heart rate to not increase as much. Another error that could have occurred is that the pulse was counted incorrectly and the counter missed beats, or that the heart rate was taken too long after the initial exercise that the pulse was able to slow down with the individual…
Mr. JK denies problem; “I don’t exercise enough”. The contour of the joints is symmetric. ROM was performing on shoulder, neck, wrist, elbow, hip, and knee. The result how that muscle strength is equal bilaterally and movements against resistance are smooth.…
1. Compare the reaction times for voluntary vs. involuntary activation of the quadriceps muscle. What might account for the observed differences in reaction times? Outline what has to occur in the body for each reaction to occur. Refer to your drawing from Step 24. Information from the flow chart you created in Activity 2.2.1 might also be helpful.…
Starting in athletic position, or the ‘start phase’, ankles are slightly dorsiflexed, knees flexed slightly, hips are flexed, and both the lumbar and cervical spine are extended. Shoulders are abducted at a ninety degree angle, and the shoulder girdle has slight upward rotation; the radioulnar joint is pronated, while the wrist and fingers are extended. All motions in the first phase are done bilaterally. While in the first phase, the great toe and lesser toes are both in the flexed position. The flexor hallucis longus is isometrically contracting the great toe while the flexor digitorium longus isometrically contracts the lesser toes. The muscles performing dorsiflexion in the ankle are the antagonist muscles including the gastrocnemius and soleus. This is an isometric movement in the sagittal plane. (Floyd 303) The knee is slightly flexed at about a thirty degree angle. The primary muscles used for this movement are the rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, vastus medialis, and vastus intermedius. This constant movement is also an isometric contraction performed by the antagonist muscle group in the sagittal plane. (Floyd 278) The hip is flexed and the biceps femoris, semitendinosis, semimembranosis, and the gluteus maximus isometrically contracting. Both, the lumbar and cervical spine are held in anatomical position mainly by the erector spinae. (Prentice 734) The shoulder is…
