6Functional movement — Functional movements are movements based on real world situational biomechanics. They usually involve multi planar, multi joint movements which place demand on the body s core musculature and innervation. Functional vs other movements Sports… …
7Functional neuroimaging — is the use of neuroimaging technology to measure an aspect of brain function, often with a view to understanding the relationship between activity in certain brain areas and specific mental functions. It is primarily used as a research tool in… …
8Motor unit recruitment — is the progressive activation of a muscle by successive recruitment of contractile units (motor units) to accomplish increasing gradations of contractile strength. A motor unit consists of one motor neuron and all of the muscle fibers it… …
