Davis's Law
States that soft tissue models along the lines of stress
Mechanical effect that occurs from myofascial rolling
Compress to the local myofascia, relaxes the tissues by increasing bloodflow

body segments can move, often measured in degrees b) Normal extensibility of
all soft tissues that allows for complete range of motion c) A muscle's capability
to be elongated or stretched d)Optimal flexibility, joint range of motion, and the
ability to move freely

Which principle states that soft tissue will model along the lines of stress? a)
Wolff's law b) Overload principle c) Archimedes' principle d) Davis's law
d) Davis's law
Which statement best describes the local mechanical effect that occurs from
myofascial rolling? a) Compression of the myofascia causes the delayed onset of
muscle soreness within 48 hours of rolling. b) Compression of the myofascia
"tightens" the tissues by decreasing local blood flow, which increases myofascial
,restriction. c) Compression to the local myofascia "relaxes" the tissues by
increasing local blood flow and reducing myofascial restrictions and adhesions.
d) Compression of the myofascia increases psychological alertness and
stimulates release of growth hormones.
c) Compression to the local myofascia "relaxes" the tissues by increasing local blood
flow and reducing myofascial restrictions and adhesions.

Wolff's Law
A bone grows or remodels in response to forces or demands placed upon it
specificity principle
standard which states that gradual increase of a physical demand on the body will
improve fitness
Archimedes' Principle
the buoyant force on an object is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object
The TRX Rip Trainer should be most beneficial to which of the following phases
of the OPT model?
Phases 1, 2, and 5
What are the primary levels of the OPT model
Stabilization, Strength, Power
What does the electron transport chain do?
uses the high-energy electrons from glycolysis and the Krebs cycle to convert ADP into
ATP
maintenance stage
has been consistently exercising for 6 months or more-less tempted to stop-continues
indefinitely
action stage
has been exercising for up to 6 months
contemplation stage
stage of change in which people are considering changing behavior in the next 6
months but have taken no steps to start
, precontemplation stage
stage of change in which people have made no changes or plans to change
preparation stage
stage of change in which people are getting ready to make a change within the next
month
To quantify body compositional (fat mass loss) changes (A Fitness assessment
measure)
Body composition measurement
Core stability is defined as
The ability to maintain position stabilizing spine while extremities are moving
Arthokinematics
joint motion (unseen)
3 major types: roll, slide, spin
Osteokinematics
movement of bones around a joint axis (visible)
Biomechanics
The science concerned with the internal and external forces acting on the human body
and the effects produced by these forces.
Kinesiology
study of movement
type 1 osteoporosis
"primary" caused by normal aging/lower estrogen & progesterone- following menopause
type 2 osteoporosis
"secondary" due to medical condition/alcohol abuse or smoking
Training Frequency
The number of training sessions performed during a specified period (usually 1 week)
Training Intensity
An individual's level of effort, compared with their maximal effort, which is usually
expressed as a percentage.
Training Volume
The sum of the (reps x sets) x resistance used.
Training Duration
amount of time of a training session
Unloading phase
The concentric phase
stretch-shortening cycle
eccentric (stretch) contraction followed immediately by concentric (shortening)
contraction
Amortization phase
