strength and what is demanded by them during a game. In the text it is explained what plyometric is and how it works‚ what is the true nature of it and aim of plyometric training. They key words among the article are: depth jump‚ running velocity‚ muscle volume stretch-shortening cycle‚ jumping‚ and force–velocity test. For this experiment‚ 23 random players were used to do different exercises. These people were in the age between 19 and 23 years old. They all trained in two different groups and

Measuring haemodynamic variables using different techniques and examining the effects of diving reflex‚ isometric muscle contraction and psychological stress on these variables. Introduction Haemodynamics is the study of factors that determine the movement of blood (Widmaier et al‚ 2011). The main haemodynamic factors are heart rate and blood pressure. Heart rate is defined as the number of times the heart contracts per minute. Normal resting heart rate in adults ranges between 60 – 100 beats

though we often estimate strength using tests that may involve multiple repetitions. 2. In strength training and rehabilitation‚ emphasis should be given to both the concentric and eccentric phases of the movement. During the concentric phase‚ the muscle shortens from a lengthened position and during the eccentric phase the muscle lengthens from a shortened position. For example‚ in the execution of the squat‚ the subject begins in a standing position where his/her quadriceps and gluteus maximus

Module 06 Case Study: Articulations and Nerve Tissue Part I— “Jill” Questions 1. What is the difference between a tendon and ligament? (1 point) --The difference between a tendon and a ligament is that a tendon attaches to muscle. (ie. muscle-bone‚ muscle-muscle‚ muscle- skin) A ligament‚ however‚ attaches to cartilage. (ie. cartilage-bone‚ cartilage-cartilage‚ bone-bone) 2. What bones form the articulation (joint) of the ankle? Did Jill most likely sprain or strain her ankle? Explain your

In attuning the central nervous system (CNS) to the physical demands placed upon it‚ opposing muscle groups work in a more synergistic or coordinated fashion. Flexibility training also reduces muscle soreness. Recent studies have indicated that stretching is extremely effective
