A low back arch in the overhead squat indicates what muscles are overactive?
hip flexors
Hips that are shifted off the midline are most lik ely indicative of
load-bearing habits to the side
How many postural distortion patterns were identified by Janda?

Arthritis
What alter ed joint motion is commonly displayed in an individual with upper crossed
syndrome?
increased scapular protraction
What hip muscle has been shown to become weaker after an ankle sprain?
gluteus medius
What is the general effect of beta blockers on heart ra te and blood pressure?
decreases heart rate and decreases blood pressure
what is the process by which a tight muscle diminishes neural drive and inhibits recruitment of
its functional antagonist?
Altered reciprocal inhibition
2 / 4
what is the process whereby a synergist compensates for a prime mover to maintain force
production?
synergistic dominance
what motions occur at the knee during lower extremity supination?
extension, abduction, external rotation
which joint is comprised of the patella and femur?
patellafemoral joint
which levers are the most common in the body and have pull between the fulcrum and
resistance?
third class levers
which muscle is commonly tight in an individual with lower crossed syndrome?
rectus femoris
which muscle is repeatedly placed in a shortened position during sitting
illiopsoas

3 / 4
working with arms overhead for long periods of time (such as painting) may lead to shoulder
soreness that could be the result of tightness in the latissimus dorsi and pectoralis and
weakness in th e?
rotator cuff
Muscles involved in the Anterior Oblique subsystem (AOS)
Internal Oblique and adductor complex, external oblique and hip external rotators
Function of anterior oblique subsystem
provides transverse plane stabilization and force transmission necessary for functional
activities involving the trunk and extremities Provides rotation of the pelvis *provides dynamic
stabilization of lumbo -pelvic -hip complex
Muscles involved in the later al subsystem (LS)
Gluteus medius, tensor fascia latae, adducor complex and quadratus lumborum
Function of lateral subsystem (LS)
frontal plan stability and pelvo -femoral stability,
Dysfunction in the Lateral subsystem (LS) is evident by
increased pronation of the knee, hip, or feet during walking, squats, lunges or climbing chairs
Unwanted frontal plane movement is characterized by
decreased strength and neuromuscular control in the lateral subsystem (LS)
The anterior subsystem (AOS) functions in the in whi ch plane
transverse
Force couple
the synergistic action of a muscle to produce movement around a joint
length tension relationships
the resting length of a muscle and the tension the muscle can produce while resting
The global stabilization subsystem in pr edominantly responsible for
LPHC stabilization and eccentric deceleration
The global stabilization subsystem consists of
superficial musculature that originates from the pelvis to the ribcage, the lower extremities or
both
