Full-Body Functional System: Core Muscles

781 Words4 Pages

Core muscles are split into two major system. There are stabilization system which is the local muscles and the movement muscle which is the global muscles. Local muscles consists of shorter muscle lengths which attaches directly to the vertebrae and are the solely reason for generating force and support stability for the spine.
As a primary stabilizers of the spine, transversus abdominis and multifidi are the most outstanding ones. Surprisingly, they do not create movement for the spine unlike the secondary stabilizers. The secondary stabilizers consists of internal oblique, quadratus lumborum, erector spinae and so on. These stabilizers does its function to move the spine.

Anti- rotation can also be effective in rotating the body and testing the core muscles strength. It attempts your body to bend as the weight comes in and you have to resist it.

There are important sections that reflects on structural and functional integration.
Both structural and functional are a type of relationship where it provides others its support. Structural integration are ways to relieve pain and improve performance. The benefits are of improved posture and getting away from back pains, chronic back, and neck discomfort and so on. It can improve one’s balance and how they coordinate with daily activities. Function integration mainly focuses on movements. With having structure, there will be no problem to proceed with functional integration.

The core can also affect the kinetic chain from cervical spine, thoraco-lumbar spine, hip joints, knee joints, foot and ankle. There are series of adjacent segments where one joint causes a number of reactions. There are two of it: Adjacent and non-adjacent. Some people tend to have a really good strength, power …show more content…

There will be an imbalance in the kinetic chain and therefore allowing them negatively to not be transferred properly. For example, since the core is of the middle of the body, it can mainly affect its upper and lower postures. At most, the kinetic chain has to go from ground to legs, hips, trunk and back, shoulder, elbow and lastly, wrist. But at some sports or training setting, people might go on from ground, legs, missed the hips but proceed to the wrist part. This occurs due to a missing link in the kinetic chain. It increases the risk of getting an injury due to a dysfunctional core. Apart from missing link in the kinetic chain, unfortunately, it is possible to have delayed in the trunk and back position during the sequence. Due to some mistakes done during its process.

When all of these unfortunate events occur, we have to look and assess on the cores.
In order for us to improve on having a strong and stabilized core, there are some assessment we can opt to do. Firstly, the plank test. It helps with testing the strength of rectus abdominis, transversus abdominis, obliques and erector spinae.

File one Summary: Skeletal muscles are made out of striated subunits called sarcomeres, which are made out of the myofilaments actin and myosin. Skeletal muscles contain myofibrils. Every myofibril is striated with dull and light bands. I bands contain just thin fibers, made fundamentally out of actin.

1. Distal Biceps Brachii a. The biceps brachii has two heads; the long and the short head. The long head originates onto the supraglenoid tuberosity, and the short head originates onto the coracoid process of the scapula. Both the heads insert onto the radial tuberosity (Starkey, Brown, & Ryan, 2011). b.

Posture, such as sitting and standing, is maintained as a result of muscle contraction. The skeletal muscles are continually making fine adjustments that hold the body in stationary positions. The tendons of many muscles extend over joints and in this way contribute to joint stability. This is particularly evident in the knee and shoulder joints, where muscle tendons are a major factor in stabilizing the joint. Heat production, to maintain body temperature, is an important by-product of muscle metabolism.

In adults, the elbow is the second most dislocated joint in the body, succeeding shoulder dislocations. Most elbow dislocations occur in the posterior direction, which causes a disengagement of the “coronoid process of the ulna from the trochlea of the humerus” (Chicharoen, Kwon, Windle, & Lovato, 2014). Typically, the mechanism of injury is falling on an outstretched hand (FOOSH) with the elbow in an extended position upon impact. For example, an athlete participating in the first practices for two-a-day fall football was running a defensive back contact drill, and upon collision of the ground, the athlete extended his arm to catch himself. This case study, as like many previous athletes, presented with a shortened forearm that was held in

However, the most important role of the core is its role in stabilization and maintaining a neutral spinal alignment. With imbalances in the anterior and posterior musculature, there is risk of improper orientation of the thoracic and lumbar spinal segments which increase risk of injury. Weakness or poor control of the rectus abdominus can lead to increased lumbar lordosis which is the angle or curvature if the lower region of the spine. With a large curve at this region, intervertebral discs are not in the ideal position to distribute weight from the superior regions of the body and can put the disc at a position in which it may herniate, or succumb to other types of spinal

This freedom results from the laxity of its joint capsule and the large size of the humeral head compared with the small size of glenoid cavity. The joint permits movement around three axes and allow flexion-extension, abduction-adduction, rotation, medial and lateral of the humerus and circumduction. Lateral rotation of humerus increases the range of abduction. When the arm is abducted without rotation, available articular surface is exhausted and the greater tubercle contacts the coracoacromial arch, preventing further abduction. If the arm is then laterally rotated 180 degrees the tubercles are rotated posteriorly and more articular surface becomes available to continue elevation.

The overall function of the muscular system is to provide movement of the body and organ function through contraction and expansion. Muscles are categorized as voluntary or involuntary. Voluntary muscles are the muscles that we can control when and how to move them. Involuntary muscles are muscles that are controlled by the autonomic nervous system, so we can’t consciously control them. All muscular tissues are designed to flux, contract, or move according to their function.

The spinal cord and nerve roots are preserved by the vertebral body, supports the body and responsible for carrying weight. The disks allow movement in the spine and have a shock absorbing. They separate the vertebrae from each other so they also protect them from the wear and tear. There is an empty space in the spine to permit the nerve roots and spinal cord to pass inside. There are 33 vertebrae and 23 intervertebral disks in normal adult spine.

When these actions are not done properly, back pain can be experienced frequently by the nurses. Joey C. Bergeron et al. (2006) state that much literature indicates bad posture is the predominate cause of low back pain in otherwise healthy individuals. Proper alignment of the spine is crucial while walking, sitting, and sleeping to support ligaments, tehndon, and disks in the lumbar area. Any deviation in proper posture relating to these daily activities put the spine in a vulnerable position for
