BODY IN MOTION

How do the musculoskeletal and cardiorespiratory systems of the body influence and respond to movement.
Skeletal system
Axial = provides a central framework and support axis that includes the skull, vertebral column, sternum and ribs
Appendicular = includes all bones of the limbs as well as shoulder girdle and pelvis which attach them to the axial skeleton major bones involved in movement structure and function of synovial joints; freely moveable and allow for us to exercise e.g. knee ankle hip shoulders and wrists types of synovial joints include
1. hinge; opens and shuts like a door hinge, allows for flexion and extension only e.g. elbow, knee, jaw, fingers
2. ball + socket; shoulder and hip
3. pivot; one bone rotated around the other e.g. atlas and axis
4. gliding; bones that slide across each other e.g. carpals/tarsals
5. saddle; one bone sits atop another e.g. thumb
6. condyloid; bones articulate together e.g. wrist joint actions e.g. flexion extension muscular system major muscles involved in movement. Types include:
1. cardiac muscle; the heart - involuntary and works automatically
2. smooth muscle; found in intestines and is involuntary
3. skeletal muscles; controlled voluntarily and is the muscle used to perform movement
- muscle relationship; muscles work in pairs so that when one muscle contracts to create a desired movement it’s “partner: must relax and stretch to allow the bones to move. This is known as “reciprocal inhibition” . e.g. during hamstring curls, hamstring works while quads relax and stretch. The muscle working is contracting – agonist, opposing muscle is relaxing – antagonist
- types of muscle contraction; When muscles are relaxed they are soft and loose but when they contract to produce a force they become hard and elastic. Two main types of contractions are isotonic; (equal tension) the muscle develops a force in lifting and lowering a load. 1. Concentric isotonic– the muscle develops

    There are six types of synovial joints. Gilding joints, such as carpals of the wrist, these joints allow only gliding or sliding movements. Hinge joints, act as a door hinge does, allowing flexion and extension in just one plane. Pivot joints one bone rotates about another. Condyloid joints two bones fit together with an odd shape these joints allow flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction movements. Saddle joints, which resemble a saddle, permits the same movement as the condyloid joints, but allow greater movement. Ball and socket joints allow all movement except gliding. Compound joints modified hinge joints condylar joints (condyles of the femur join with condyles of tibia) and saddle joint (lower end of femur joins with patella.) The function of the synovial joints are to allow…

    Muscle contractions happen when muscle fibers are stimulated, which can cause one of many types of contractions. Isometric contractions, which means that tension happens in the muscle but there is no change in muscle length, therefore there is no movement of the muscle itself. An example of Isometric contractions would be strength training, such as holding a weight still, which happens in the biceps brachii. The biceps brachii the gets more tension, but the muscle length stays the same. As for isotonic contractions, which means that tension is in the muscle while there is a change of length, can be split into two types: Concentric contraction, in which the tension causes the muscle to shorten, and eccentric, in which the tension causes the muscle to elongate.…

    Muscles work like levers and allow the bones at a joint to work like hinges. Muscles pull and move the bones at particular joints; this makes the joint move and therefore the body moves. When a muscle contracts, it pulls the bones at a joint in the direction that it is designed to move. With reduced mobility, muscles can become floppy and make movement slower and more difficult, but when muscles are used on a regular basis, they remain firm and move…

    Some research on post activation potentiation and force rate relationship have mostly involved isometric contraction, type of muscle contraction affects rate of frequency and force frequency over which post activation potentiation happens. In concentric muscle contraction (CMC), especially at high velocity the force frequency relation is transferred to the right compared to the isometric muscle contraction (IMC), this is because high frequency is needed to induce a desired percentage of maximum force Abbate, et al., (2000). PAP still plays a major role to high frequency in concentric vs isometric contraction for example Rowling, swimming and cycling involve concentric movement and concentric-eccentric contraction can be weightlifting, running…

    Smooth muscles form the soft body organs like stomach, intestine, blood vessels etc. They are not under the will of human beings and are responsible for unconscious body activities like digestion of food. They are called smooth muscles because when seen under the microscope, they do not have any striation in contrast to the other two types of muscles.…
