Term
Dynamic Stretching
Definition
Active muscles effort is used to propel the muscle into an extended range of motion.
Term
Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation
Definition
Muscles to be stretched is first contracted maximally, muscle is then either actively stretched by contraction of the opposing muscle or is passively stretced

Athlete stretches to a comfortable position. PASSIVE
Term
Functions of the Cardiovascular System
Definition
-Deliver oxygen and nutrients to body tissues
-Cary wastes from the cells
-Regulate Body Temperature
Term
Anatomy of the Heart
Definition
Upper chambers are the atrium
Lower are the Ventricles
Term
Atrium
Definition
Receiving chambers of blood from the body and the lungs
Term
Ventricles
Definition
The pumping chambers to the lungs and the body
Term
Arteries
Definition
Carry blood away from the heart
Term
Veins
Definition
Carry blood to the heart
Term
Capillaries
Definition
Microscopic vessels where oxygen/nutrient exchange takes place
Term
Systematic Circulation
Definition
Carries oxygenated blood from the left ventricle of the heart through out the body and de-oxygenaged blood to right atrium
Term
Pulmonary Circulation
Definition
Carries Un-oxygenated blook from the right ventricle through the lungs and returns oxygenated blood back into the left atrium
Term
How long does the circulatory process take
Definition
about 1 minute
Term
Functions of Respiratory System
Definition
Respiration and Ventalation
Term
Nose
Definition
Warms, moisturizes, and filters the particulate matter contained in the air.
Term

(throat) a tubular structure which serves as a passage way for both air and food
Term
Larynx
Definition
(Voice box) a short passageway that connects the pharynx with the trachea. Vibration of vocal cords. Adams apple.
Term

Isotonic
Definition
Joint moved through full range of moution againsfixed weight. speed is variable
sport specific. greatest gains int he initial movemnet
Term
Isokinetic
Definition
Variable restistance with fixed speed. Resistance accomodates to match force applied. Rehab. not ss. machine required
Term
Eccentric
Definition
"Negative Work"
muscle is lengthen because contractile force is less that resisteve force. Lowering phase of most lifts.
-greatest strength gains, but most muscle soreness
