these bones are practical in the knee joint‚ aside from the fibula. The patellar tendon elongates from the inferior pole of the patella‚ as an extension of the tendon of the quadriceps femoris muscle to the tibial tuberosity. The role of the patella tendon is to transfer the force of the quadriceps muscles‚ much like a rope around a pulley‚ as your knee straightens. (John Miller‚ 2015) Definition Excessive jumping or landing strains the patella tendon. At first the damage may only be minor

vitality can be exceptionally valuable when additionally talking about weakness. A basic thought to recollect is that muscle compression is because of a particle called ATP (adenosine triphosphate). ATP must be available for muscles to contract. There are three frameworks of energy that create ATP: Phosphocreatine system‚ the glycolytic system‚ or the oxidative system. On the off chance that exhausted‚ it must be renewed if additional muscle withdrawal is to proceed. Since we are talking about ATP Pathways

Definition - Muscular dystrophy is a genetic mutation where the muscle fibres become susceptible to damages causing the muscle to progressively get weaker. Eventually muscular dystrophy will cause the inheritance of this disease to need a wheelchair. Muscular dystrophy is most commonly found in boy and in their early childhood years‚ other types of muscular dystrophy don’t surface until adulthood. Duchenne muscular dystrophy symptoms include; Frequent falls‚ difficulty getting up from a lying

the scapula‚ or more commonly known as the shoulder blade. The scapula is a bone that connects the humerus and the clavicle to the axial skeleton with its muscle attachments and provides stabilization to the arm. The scapula is a triangle bone; relatively flat in shape that forms the shoulder girdle. The scapula has multiple surfaces where muscles originate and attach. These surfaces are the subscapular fossa (costal side)‚ infraspinatus fossa‚ and supraspinatus fossa (both dorsal side). There is also

The function from the minerals are: needed for appropriate fluids balance‚ nerve transmission‚ and muscle contraction‚ Stomach acid‚ healthy bones and teeth‚ helps muscles relax and contract‚ blood clotting‚ blood pressure regulation‚ immune system health‚ also found in every cell part of the system that maintains acid-base balance.

procedure to assess the health of muscles and the nerve cells that control them (motor neurons). Motor neurons transmit electrical signals that cause muscles to contract. An EMG translates these signals into graphs‚ sounds or numerical values that a specialist interprets. It is a technique for evaluating and recording the electrical activity produced by skeletal muscles. EMG results can reveal nerve dysfunction‚ muscle dysfunction or problems with nerve-to-muscle signal transmission. Careful registration

The rotator cuff is a group of four muscles that work together to stabilize the shoulder while connecting the humerus to the scapula. The four muscles include the Teres minor‚ Infraspinatus‚ Supraspinatus‚ and Subscapularis. A cuff around the humerus is formed from the tendons of these four muscles. While lying below the scapular spine‚ the teres minor and infraspinatus muscles are in charge of externally rotating the shoulder. Teres minor is initiated more when the arm is abducted to 90 degrees
