Kinesiology Laboratory 2: Muscle MechanicsLength Tension Relationships, Velocity Tension Relationships, Active and Passive Insufficiency
Today’s Activities
1. Grip Strength Analysis
2. Biodex Data Analysis
3. Knee Extension with Goniometers
4. Knee Flexion with Goniometers
5. Exercise Analysis- Upper Extremity (Presentations- Next Week)
Anatomy Review: The Wrist
Anatomy Review: Hamstrings and Quadriceps
Active Insufficiency
When a two-joint muscle is restrained in contraction.
The agonist muscle is slackened to the point where it has lost its ability to generate maximum tension.
Passive Insufficiency
When a two-joint muscle is constrained in elongation.
This occurs when the antagonist muscle cannot be elongated any farther and the full ROM cannot be achieved.

Biodex Machine
Creates a concentric contraction of both the Quads (Flexion) and Hamstrings (Extension)= Isokinetic Exercise

Graph data for Results section.What principle is being demonstrated?
Knee Extension and Hip Flexion Using a Goniometer Using the Goniometer
Align the goniometer with the joint being tested.
Have the arms pointing toward the moving limb
Complete movement
Align second goniometer arm with limb
Read the degrees of movement
Make note of subjective feelings
Make a table of your results for the lab report
Use figures for each activity
What principle is being shown in activity 3?
What principle is being shown in activity 4?

Presentation Assignments
Group 1: Shoulder Flexors and Shoulder Extensors
Group 2: Shoulder Abductors and Shoulder Internal and External Rotators
Group 3: Elbow Extensors and Wrist Flexors and Extensors
Group 4: Elbow Flexors and Forearm Supinators and Pronators
Presentation Requirements
3 Different Exercise for Each Muscle Group
There must be one gravity eliminated and one gravity resistive exercise per muscle group (Think about the way the body is positioned)
Utilize a variety of equipment (Therabands, dumbbells, benches, etc.)
Present exercises in order of difficulty
Identify the type of muscle contraction (Eccentric or Concentric)
Notes may be used during presentation
For Next Week
