What are the four steps in "Bridg- ing the Gap" between current client health and fitness levels, and their future goals and needs? correct answer: Assess, Design, Instruct, Re-asses What is the difference between implicit and explicit goals? correct answer: Explicit goals are goals that are mentioned by the client. Implicit goals are implied but are not necessarily mentioned. What is the kinetic chain? correct answer: The kinetic chain is composed of the nervous system, muscular system and skeletal system. What is the function of the kinetic chain? correct answer: The kinetic chain is the "chain" of systems that "link" together to create human movement. What is the difference between smooth, cardiac and skeletal muscle? correct answer: Smooth - Involuntary actions (autonomic nervous system). No striations. (ex: Digestive tract) Skeletal - Voluntary movement (somatic nervous system). Has striations. (ex: all muscles controlling movement) Cardiac - An involuntary muscle but has some striations. (ex: heart only) What are the 3 layers of fascia? correct answer: The outermost layer is the epimysium, which completely surrounds muscle. The next layer groups muscle fibers in bundles called fasciculi and is referred to as perimysium. The innermost layer, the endomysium surrounds individual muscle fibers. What is their significance? correct answer: Interweaving of connective tissue makes the muscle-bone connection extremely strong. What is the structure of the motor unit? correct answer: Motor neuron, Muscle fibers, and Motor end plates What is the sliding filiament theory? correct answer: The sarcomere is composed of thin filaments (chains of globular actin) and thick filaments (organized bundles of myosin). These elements will slide over each other, with the resulting ac- tion of all the sarcomeres shortening together, causing the muscle to contract as a whole.
