Muscles on one side of the joint have to relax in order for the muscles on the other side of the joint to contract. Example would be the quadriceps would have to relax and lengthen in order for the hamstrings to flex.
how would you apply reciprocal inhibition?
what is the proper rest period for hypertrophy
reciprocal inhibition
To find the reciprocal of a number, calculate [1] [divided by] [the number].
It is the reciprocal of the efficiency.
Reciprocal Inhibition (Concepts of Fitness and Wellness 8th edition. Corbin, Welk.) Found on page 154, first paragraph, right side of page.
To calculate the reciprocal of a number, you simply divide 1 by that number. So, to find the reciprocal of 1.2, you divide 1 by 1.2: Reciprocal of 1.2 = 1 / 1.2 Let's calculate it: Reciprocal of 1.2 = 0.8333333333333333 Therefore, the reciprocal of 1.2 is approximately 0.83333 (rounded to five decimal places).
Because multiplication and division are inverse operations. And the reciprocal of a number is its multiplicative inverse.
Reciprocal inhibition is the process by which muscles on one side of a joint relax allowing for the muscles on the other side of the joint to contract. It is a coordinated pattern an example of which would be when hamstrings relax so that the quadriceps may contract while running/walking and this occurs over and over. Type Ia sensory afferent axons project via inhibitory interneurons to the antagonistic muscle group (hamstrings in the case of walking) therefore inhibiting the hamstrings as the quadriceps are excited and vice versa.
It interrupts tonic descending inhibition from the cerebral cortex to the lubar cord
competitive inhibition
Myelosuppression is inhibition of the bone marrow.
