MUSCULAR SYSTEM 2. Bring feet to 12 inches form wall. *keep back against wall*
3. Lower down until knees are bent to about 60 degrees
FUNCTIONS OF THE MUSCULAR SYSTEM keeping abdominals tight
1. Producing movement 4. Raise back up to where knees are slightly bent
2. Maintaining posture 5. Do 3 sets of 10 repetitions
3. Stabilizing joints
4. Generating Heat 3. Isokinetic
5. Determine the form and contour of the body - Involves muscle contraction with resistance
- uses special machine or device
TYPES OF EXERCISE
1. Isotonic MUSCLE GROUPS
- dynamic, active movement of muscles 1. Synergistic muscle
- Muscles shorten to produce contraction - Those which contract together to accomplish the same
2. Isometric movement
- Static, no joint or muscle movement e.g. brachialis + biceps brachii= Elbow flexion
- Involves muscle contraction without shortening 2. Antagonistic muscle
- Antagonistic muscles relaxes while agonistic muscles
EXAMPLES OF ISOMETRIC EXERCISES contract.
WALL ANGELS e.g. biceps brachii contracts + triceps brachii relaxes=
1. Stand against wall with feet shoulder width apart elbow flexion
2. Gently press low back against wall. 3. Antigravity muscle
3. Place back elbows, forearms, and wrists against wall - Continually opposes the effects of gravity to maintain an
4. Bring arms up and down in a small arc of motion while upright or sitting position.
