- Skeletal System
- Types of Joints
- synovial
- cartilaginous
- fibrous
- Bone Disorders
- Acute Injuries
- ligament damage
- Growth Plate Injuries
- weak parts of bone heads / overuse injury
- caused by'; high impact, contact or repetitive sports
- weak parts of bone heads / overuse injury
- Osteroarthritus
- gradual breakdown / loss of cartilage at joints
- caused by; repetitive movements or obesity
- gradual breakdown / loss of cartilage at joints
- Osteoporosis
- low bone density leading to frequent bone fractures
- Acute Injuries
- Types of Movement
- flexion / extension
- lateral / medial rotation
- abduction / adduction
- circumduction
- pronation / supination
- dorsiflexion / plantar flexion
- horizontal flexion / extension
- Functions of the Skeleton
- movement
- protection of internal organs
- production of RBCs
- shape and support
- mineral store
- Effects of a Warm Up
- produces synovial fluid to lubricate joints
- warms up connective tissues to loosen joints
- Effects of Exercise
- increased bone density
- increased range of movement
- increased synovial fluid production
- stronger ligaments and tendons
