The Origin is the
attachment that moves the least
the origin is usually
usually proximal
Insertion is the
more moveable attachment
insertion is usually
usually distal
palpation is
the use of physical touch to identify structures
Kinesiology is
the study of anatomy and mechanics in relation to human movment
kinetic chains are either
open or closed
open chain means
free moment of distal segment in space
closed kinetic chains are
a fixed position (like hands pushing a cart)
Open kinetic is
not a fixed position, a free flow of movement (a conductor of an orchestra)
tensile force is
pulling
compressive force is
pushing
the movement arm is
the lever arm
the distance from a joint in the muscle
there are how many lever systems in the body
3 of them
how to remember the lever class?
Whichever is in the middle is going to determine the class
if the joint is in the middle what class is it?
first class lever
if the resistance (or load) is in the middle, what class is it?
second class lever
If the muscle (effort) is in the middle it is a
third class lever
think of a first class lever as a
seesaw
think of a second class lever as a
wheelbarrow
Think of a third class lever as
shoveling
effort is made in the
in the muscle
in a first class lever the
exerted force and resistive force are on opposite ends of the axis
in a second class lever the
resistive force is closer to the axis than the exerted force
the third class lever is the
most common lever
biomechanics does what
examines the structure, function, and motion of the biological systems that make up a living organism
The bone is made of
calcium and collagen
collagen is for
flexibility
bone is a
living tissue
bone responds to
stress and load
Osteoarthritis is
the degeneration of cartilage within a joint
ligaments do what
connect bone to bone
ligaments are important for
joint stability
tendons do what
connect muscle to bone
tendons are important for
transferring force
low bone density leads to
more fractures, as weightbearing becomes more difficult
what are the 3 types of muscle?
skeletal
cardiac
smooth
skeletal muscle does what
moves the bones of skeleton
provides force for purposeful movement
Skeletal muscle example
biceps brachii
upper trapezius
cardiac muscle does what
forms the myocardium
cardiac muscle example
heart
myocardium
the smooth muscle is
an involuntary muscle
smooth muscle is found
in internal organs (intestines and vessels)
Muscle when contracted is
being pulled
muscles are stronger when
closer together (think lifting)
hypertonia is
muscle with increased tone (highly contracted)
phasic stretch reflex does what
activates agonist muscle
agonist muscle is the
muscle producing desired motion
slow twitch fibers are
type 1 fibers
low force over a long period of time
more resistant to fatigue
when thinking slow twitch fibers think
a slow marathon runner
fast twitch fibers are
type 2 fibers
powerful contractions
when thinking fast twitch fibers think
sprinting when your scared
the agonist muscle is the
the working muscle (prime mover)
the antagonist muscle is the
the contrasting muscle
The muscle has to have __
have a joint to cross over for motion
The isometric contraction is
a contraction with no change in length
the isotonic contraction is
a contraction with change in muscle length and joint motion
eccentric is
lengthening
concentric is
shortening
Example of ball-and-socket joint
the shoulder (glenohumeral joint)
Example of ellipsoid joint
wrist (radiocarpal joint)
Example of hinge joint
Elbow (humeroulnar joint)
example of saddle joint
thumb (carpometacarpal joint)
example of gliding joint
the carpal bones of the wrist
example of pivot joint
vertebrae in neck (atlantoaxial joint)
osteokinematics is
the gross movement of bones in relation to another
Arthokinematics is
internal joint matters
arthokinematics involves
accessory motions that cannot be achieved by voluntary muscle force
arthokinematics are
small detailed movements of joints
