Role of Rotator Cuff in Erector Spinae and Rectus Abdominus Muscles, Quizzes of Kinesiology

Definitions and descriptions of the functions, movements, and fiber types of the erector spinae and rectus abdominus muscles, as well as an overview of the rotator cuff muscles and their actions. It covers topics such as muscle types, core stability, and muscle imbalances.

What you will learn

  • What is the role of the rotator cuff muscles in stabilizing the humeral head?
  • What movements does the erector spinae have?
  • What type of fiber does the erector spinae have?

TERM 1
Is the erector spinae an outer or inner core
muscle
DEFINITION 1
outer core muscle
TERM 2
what movements does the erector spinae
have
DEFINITION 2
extension and lateral flexion of spine. (trunk extension.
TERM 3
What type of fiber does erector spinae have
DEFINITION 3
it is a type one fiber. which means it is a slow twitch muscle.
Not proportionally trained
TERM 4
Is the erector spinae overactive or
underactive
DEFINITION 4
overactivity: causes anterior tilt of pelvis and too much
extension of spine. (excessive lordosis.)
TERM 5
Movement of rectus abdominus
DEFINITION 5
flexion to about 15 degrees both sides..Individually: laterally
flexes to ipsilateral side (trunk flextion)

is the rectus abdominus an outer or inner core outer core TERM 7 rectus abdominus overactivity DEFINITION 7 may posteriorly tilt pelvis and flex spine causing reduced lordosis. TERM 8 It is involved with ipsilateral lateral trunk flextion, and ipsilateral trunk rotation DEFINITION 8 internal obliques TERM 9 Prevents the body's spine of over extending, a ligament DEFINITION 9 anterior longitudinal ligament TERM 10 it is a stabilizing (inner) core muscle, part of the erector spinae muscle group; contributes to trunk extension, lateral flexion and ipsilateral trunk rotation DEFINITION 10 erector spinae-spinalis

a stabilizing core muscle, acts as a lifting belt, pulls the abdominal muscles inward transverse obdominus TERM 17 an anterior core muscle, actions are trunk flexion, lateral trunk flexion. and contralateral trunk rotation DEFINITION 17 external obliques TERM 18 the plank(prone) exercise affects involves more of the rectus abdominus and internal obliques muscles as compare with the external oblique muscles DEFINITION 18 false TERM 19 the side (bridge) plank exercise emphasizes the following muscles; external obliques, transcverse abdominus and the gluteus medius muscle group DEFINITION 19 true TERM 20 the abdominal draw ( pelvic tilt) helps to activate the gluteus max. muscles and relax the erector spinae (superficial) muscles DEFINITION 20 true
