Therapeutic Exercise

5 to 10 seconds

ATP can fuel ______ seconds of high intensity work

ATP-creatine phosphate System (Phosphagen system)

- 30 seconds

-provides energy for activities such as sprinting and weight- lifting

Aerobic Oxidation System

resides in the mitochondria capable of using carbohydrates, fat, and small amounts of protein to produce energy (ATP) during exercise, through oxidative phosphorylation.

VO2 max

measure of the power of the aerobic energy system - regarded as the best

indicator of aerobic fitness

60 to 80 beats/min

Normal resting HR

Stroke Volume

amount of blood ejected from the left ventricle in a single beat

Cardiac Output

amount of blood pumped by the heart each minute

Blood Pressure

driving force behind blood flow

SBP

increases linearly with increasing work intensity at 8 to 12 mm Hg per metabolic equivalent (MET)

Pulmonary ventilation

volume of air exchanged per minute

Maximal O2 Consumption Aerobic capacity ( VO2max )

• measure of cardiopulmonary fitness

• the highest rate of oxygen transport and use that can be achieved at

  maximal physical exertion

3 to 5 days

The ACSM recommends exercise _____ days per week

One-repetition maximum (1-RM)

most weight that can be lifted one time

Ballistic

uses the repetitive rapid application of force in a bouncing or jerking maneuver

Flexibility

describes the range of motion commonly present in a joint or group of joints that allows normal and unimpaired function

Stretching

activity that applies a deforming force along the rotational or translational planes of motion of a joint

Mobilization

• used to maintain flexibility

• moves a joint through its range of motion without applying a deforming force

Passive

done by a partner or therapist who applies a stretch to a relaxed joint or extremity

Static

• applies a steady force for a period of 15 to 60 seconds

• the easiest and probably the safest type of stretching

Plyometrics

• use primarily in the training of athletes

• as brief, explosive manoeuvres that consist of an eccentric muscle

  contraction

• followed immediately by a concentric contraction.

Proprioception

• process by which information about the position and movement of

  body parts is related to the central nervous system

Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation

This form of therapy uses resistance to indirectly facilitate movement

Brunnstrom

These techniques use resistance and primitive postural reactions to facilitate gross synergistic movement patterns and increase muscle tone during early recovery from central nervous system injury

Bobath

use reflex inhibitory movement patterns to inhibit increased tone
