- Before testing a true 1-RM exercise, why should you allow your client to complete 3 trial repetitions first?

Muscle Actions Innervation Long Thoracic N Exercise to strengthen Based on the innervation: name the muscle, provide at least 2 of its actions, and name/describe an exercise to strengthen it.

- TRUE OR FALSE 1. The longer the time tension is exerted, the greater the muscular endurance. * 2. The greatest amount of torque is produced by maximum tension in a muscle that is oriented at a 90° angle to the bone, and anatomically attached as far from the joint center as possible. * 3.The greater the torque a muscle can produce, the greater the movement it will produce on the body’s levers. * 4. When the fibers of a pennate muscle shorten, they rotate about their tendon attachment or attachments, progressively decreasing the angle of pennation. * 5.The fast-twitch fibers have smaller diameter than the slow-twitch fibers. * 6.At maximum velocity, no cross-bridges can form, so no force is generated, resulting in the production of zero power. * 7.The smaller number of cross-bridges results in a larger amount of force. *…arrow_forwardExercise 1 Activity 1.

We discussed how muscle spindles allow for precision of movement as a muscle lengthens, and particular muscles which require more precise movements will contain more spindles. In addition to this precision control over muscle length, there are other differences between muscles which enable more precision in how much force is generated. Consider the two graphs below which depict force generated by two different muscles as additional motor units are recruited. Force Muscle A Load Force Muscle B Load a) Describe why the first steps for a low force contraction in both muscles are smaller than the later ones in the context of motor units and force production.arrow_forward5. Using the hip joint reaction force example we did in class, if the moment arm for the cane is 30 cm and the cane force is applied in the vertical direction, how much would the cane force have to be to reduce the muscle force to 1.5BW? Under that condition, what would the joint reaction force be?arrow_forward
