Book The Acute Effects of Static Stretching on Interlimb Interaction

Download or read book The Acute Effects of Static Stretching on Interlimb Interaction written by Raffi Brodeyan and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction: It has been demonstrated that static stretching reduces the force output of the stretched muscles. However, most of the studies conducted in this area studied the effect of stretching on the force output of the stretched muscles during maximal voluntary contractions. Little is known about the effects of static stretching on reflexive force output of the stretched as well as the non-stretched contralateral homologous muscles. It has been hypothesized mechanical and neural factors contribute to the reduction of force output of the stretched muscles. While the mechanical factors may affect the force output of the stretched muscles, the neural factors may cross the spinal cord and affect force output of the homologous contralateral muscles. The purpose of this study is to determine the acute effects of stretching on the reflexive force output of the contralateral quadriceps muscle during and following the stretching of the homologous muscle of the ipsilateral limb. It was hypothesized that stretching would reduce the force output of the ipsilateral quadriceps muscle group simultaneously resulting to the increased force output of the contralateral quadriceps muscle group due to the reciprocal innervatory pattern of contralateral limbs. Methods: Twelve college-age males participated in this study. Myotatic reflex was induced by striking the patellar tendon of the quadriceps muscle group before, during and after stretching of either contralateral or ipsilateral muscle. Force output of the contralateral quadriceps muscles was recorded through force transducers. The electrical activity of the muscles was recorded through bipolar electrodes placed on the quadriceps and biceps femoris muscles. Results: There was a significant decrease in force output of the ipsilateral limb after stretch (-12% ℗ł 25.2N, p = .021) and there was a significant increase in force output of the contralateral limb during stretch (76% ℗ł 111N, p = .003) and force output returned to pre-stretch level after stretching the ipsilateral QF muscle. Discussion: We believe the cross extensor reflex was responsible for the increase in force output of the contralateral limb during the stretch and for the decrease in force output of the contralateral limb after the stretch.

Book The Science and Physiology of Flexibility and Stretching

Download or read book The Science and Physiology of Flexibility and Stretching written by David Behm and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-11-01 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stretching is a fundamentally important part of sport and exercise, playing a role in improving performance, and preventing injury and rehabilitation, but its scientific underpinnings have, to this point, been overlooked in book publishing. The Science and Physiology of Flexibility and Stretching is the most up-to-date and comprehensive book to cover the underlying physiology and psychology of stretching, critically assessing why, when, and how we should stretch, as well as offering a highly illustrated, practical guide to stretching exercises. Placing stretching in the context of both health and performance, the first section of the book sets out the science behind stretching, critically assessing the benefits, disadvantages, and roles of different types of stretching, exploring the mechanisms behind increasing range-of-movement through stretching and other methods, and offering evidence-based guidance on building stretching into warm-ups. In its second section, the book provides a step-by-step guide to static, dynamic, and PRF stretching exercises for beginners, through recreational athletes, to elite performers. Richly illustrated, and including an online resource, The Science and Physiology of Flexibility and Stretching provides an important scientific enquiry into stretching, and an invaluable reference for any strength and conditioning coach or student, personal trainer, sports coach, or exercise scientist.

Book Sports Performance Massage

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sports Performance Massage instructs the student and practising therapist to use a combination of experience and scientific evidence to inform their sports massage practice, particularly when working with athletic populations. Strength and conditioning coaches, managers and athletes frequently ask questions about the best use of sports massage in order to recover quicker from injury and fatigue and improve performance. Sports Performance Massage empowers the therapist and gives them greater confidence by improving their scientific understanding when working with injured or competitive athletes. The exciting new volume covers all the aspects required to make a highly skilled, confident and employable sports massage therapist. Working with high-level athletes requires an additional skill level compared to working with the general public. Furthermore, advanced massage skills taught in this book, such as soft tissue release and trigger point therapy, are essential when working on muscular adhesions and injured areas. Pregnant athletes, those with disabilities, contraindications and athletes with special requirements have also been considered. Sports Performance Massage is a learning and research aid for those studying vocational sports massage courses as well as those studying other courses where massage forms part of the undergraduate and postgraduate degree, such as sports therapy, sports rehabilitation, osteopathy and physiotherapy. Unlike other sports massage books, Sports performance Massage has a strong academic focus, allowing the graduate therapist to stay up to date with the latest research in their respective field.

Book Pulmonary Gas Exchange

    Book Details:
  • Author : G. Kim Prisk
  • Publisher : Biota Publishing
  • Release : 2013-08-01
  • ISBN : 1615044515
  • Pages : 88 pages

Download or read book Pulmonary Gas Exchange written by G. Kim Prisk and published by Biota Publishing. This book was released on 2013-08-01 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The lung receives the entire cardiac output from the right heart and must load oxygen onto and unload carbon dioxide from perfusing blood in the correct amounts to meet the metabolic needs of the body. It does so through the process of passive diffusion. Effective diffusion is accomplished by intricate parallel structures of airways and blood vessels designed to bring ventilation and perfusion together in an appropriate ratio in the same place and at the same time. Gas exchange is determined by the ventilation-perfusion ratio in each of the gas exchange units of the lung. In the normal lung ventilation and perfusion are well matched, and the ventilation-perfusion ratio is remarkably uniform among lung units, such that the partial pressure of oxygen in the blood leaving the pulmonary capillaries is less than 10 Torr lower than that in the alveolar space. In disease, the disruption to ventilation-perfusion matching and to diffusional transport may result in inefficient gas exchange and arterial hypoxemia. This volume covers the basics of pulmonary gas exchange, providing a central understanding of the processes involved, the interactions between the components upon which gas exchange depends, and basic equations of the process.
