Joint Stability and Congruence

Stability and Congruence in Articular Joints:

• Passive Factors: Joint capsule, ligaments.
• Active Factors: Muscular system (monoarticular and biarticular muscles).

Normal Mobility

Spatial Position: Within physiological ranges.

• Active Motion: Performed by active contraction of the musculature itself.
• Functional Motion: Lower-level movements.

Physiological Limitations

• Biomechanical
• Pathological
• Systemic

These limitations result in an active, functional state of the patient.

Passive Mobility

Performed by the examiner.

Anatomical Limitations

• Articular Top
• Pathological Pain

The score depends on the type of patient and the structural state.

Goniometry

Goniometry is the measurement of joint ranges of motion, whether normal or pathological.... Continue reading "Joint Stability and Range of Motion Assessment" »

Systems Development of Resistance

Systems development or job training are methods that are based on adapting the body to certain stimuli that cause systematic changes in body systems.

Continuous Training Methods

The Continuous Run

This training method belongs to the continuous system (the work is without breaks). It is also called jogging or trotting.

The most important characteristics of this method are:

• Steady pace
• Pulsation in the area of activity
• Predominance of volume over intensity

Fartlek Training

Fartlek is a method which belongs to the continuous systems. It consists of a continuous run with changes of pace. Originally, it was performed in nature, and the rhythm changes were dictated by the terrain. Now, the changes of pace, intensity, and duration...

WHO Definitions (1983)

For the WHO (1983), impairment is any loss or abnormality of structure or function, psychological, physiological, or anatomical; disability relates to the absence, due to impairments, of the ability to perform an activity in the manner or within the range considered normal for a human being; and handicap refers to a disadvantage for an individual, a social consequence of impairment or disability that limits or prevents the fulfillment of a role considered normal depending on age group, sex, social, and cultural factors.

For WHO, disability is the lack (resulting from an impairment) of the ability to perform an activity normally.

Basic Terminology and Basic Position

Basic terminology and basic position after position. Legs extended and gauntlets. S placed perpendicular to the feet; front foot advancing, armed wing.

Guideline

Guideline: An imaginary line joining the two feet. Forward displacement (moving up to the front):

• 1) Raise the front foot toe (lift the front foot toe) and place it where the sole was previously.
• 2) Second support: the tip (toe) is lifted coinciding with the back foot support.

Background and March

Background: explosive displacement. It is linked to the march; it consists of launching strongly with the front leg. The delayed version is when the extension is performed forcefully after a slight delay.

March and background: Distances used are not large for... Continue reading "Fencing Terminology, Positions, Attacks and Rules" »

General Principles of Racket Sports

These activities are classified as sports where a ball is struck using an instrument or by hand against an opponent.

1. Participation Alternatives

Players do not engage in direct physical contact or struggle with their opponent; instead, they compete by alternating turns.

2. Partners and Adversaries

Competition occurs against one or two opponents. Matches can be played individually (1v1) or in pairs/doubles (2v2).

3. Playing Space

The court is divided into two categories: net sports (separated space) or wall sports (common area).

• Separated Space: Tennis, table tennis, badminton, padel.
• Common Area: Squash, pelota, frontenis, Valencian pilota.

4. Regulation and Gameplay

• Objective: A point is won when the ball touches

Understanding English Speech Sounds

Manner of Articulation

• Plosive: Air is completely stopped, then released suddenly.
• Affricate: Air is stopped, then released gradually with friction.
• Fricative: Air is forced through a narrow channel, creating audible friction.
• Nasal: Air flows through the nasal cavity, with a complete closure in the oral cavity.
• Lateral: Air flows around the sides of the tongue.
• Approximant: Articulators approach but do not touch, creating a wide opening without significant friction.

Place of Articulation

• Bilabial: Both lips come together.
• Labiodental: The lower lip touches the upper teeth.
• Dental: The tongue tip or blade touches the upper teeth.
• Alveolar: The tongue tip or blade touches the alveolar ridge (the gum ridge behind the upper
