EMS Muscle stimulators are used to relieve pain, reduce spasms and edema, tonify weak muscles and assist the healing process. Known to ease muscle tension, stiffness in joints or back areas, and known for increasing motion restricted from disuse or atrophy, electronic muscle stimulation can also increase local blood circulation.
Why do muscle aches after doing a work out at Gym?Soma Institute
1. Muscle pain experienced after a workout, called delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS), is normal and usually develops several hours after exercise as muscle fibers are damaged.
2. Exercises that induce DOMS often involve eccentric (lengthening) muscle contractions like walking downstairs or lifting dumbbells.
3. While DOMS causes muscle function decreases and is considered an indicator of muscle damage, very few muscle fibers are actually destroyed. DOMS is not a sign to avoid further exercise and can be helped with massage.
The document describes the physiological stages of stress known as "fight or flight." It begins with resistance as the body tries to maintain balance against the stressor. If stress continues, fatigue and sleep problems can arise as the body enters the second stage of resistance. Prolonged stress leads to the final stage of exhaustion, where the body shuts down after days of fighting against stress and becomes susceptible to illness.

The document describes the structure and function of the human nervous system. It explains that the nervous system detects stimuli through receptors and transmits signals through neurons to the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord). The CNS coordinates responses by muscles or glands. There are three main types of neurons - sensory neurons carry signals from receptors to the CNS, relay neurons connect sensory and motor neurons in the CNS, and motor neurons carry signals from the CNS to effectors. Neurons transmit signals across synapses using neurotransmitters. Reflex actions provide rapid automatic responses through a reflex arc pathway without involving consciousness.
This document provides an overview of reflexes, including their definition, function, and anatomical basis. It begins with defining a reflex as an automatic, involuntary response to a stimulus. It then discusses the role of neurons, nerves, and the spinal cord in reflex arcs. Several types of reflexes are described, including somatic reflexes like the patellar reflex, and autonomic/visceral reflexes. The importance of testing reflexes clinically is discussed. In the end, the document instructs partners to test each other's reflexes for speed and function.
This document provides an overview of the human sensory and nervous systems. It describes how stimuli are received by internal and external receptors and transmitted via sensory nerves to the central nervous system. The central nervous system, consisting of the brain and spinal cord, then interprets this information and triggers responses via motor nerves. These responses can be either voluntary movements controlled by the brain, or involuntary reflexes controlled by the spinal cord without brain involvement. The five basic senses - sight, hearing, touch, smell, and taste - are described along with their associated sensory organs. The roles of neurons, nerves, and nerve centers in transmitting stimuli and responses throughout the body are also outlined.
This document discusses different types of spinal reflexes and their components. It describes autonomic reflexes which control organs and glands, and somatic reflexes which control muscles. Specific examples of reflex tests are provided, including the patellar reflex test for somatic reflexes and pupillary light reflex test for autonomic reflexes. Sensory receptors like muscle spindles, Golgi tendon organs, and their roles in reflexes are also explained.
The document discusses the nervous system, including reflexes, the peripheral nervous system, and the autonomic nervous system. It defines a reflex as an involuntary response mediated by the spinal cord or brainstem in response to a stimulus. A reflex arc follows the pathway of a reflex from sensory receptor to motor effector. The peripheral nervous system includes nerves and ganglia outside the central nervous system, and contains both sensory and motor fibers. The autonomic nervous system regulates organs like the heart and digestive system and has sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions that work in opposition to activate or relax effectors.
The document summarizes the nervous system response to exercise. It describes the central and peripheral nervous systems, including their components and functions. It explains how exercise impacts the nervous system in both short and long-term ways by enhancing neurotransmitters and pathways for oxygen. Regular exercise is shown to lower sympathetic nervous system activity and encourage parasympathetic activity. The benefits of exercise on the nervous system include neurological development, neuroplasticity, coordination, mood regulation, improved sleep, enhanced immune function, and reduced stress/anxiety.
The nervous system allows the body to respond to external changes and control internal conditions. It consists of the brain, spinal cord, and nerves. Hormones and the nervous system work together to control functions like fertility, with hormones being used in contraception and fertility treatments like IVF. The nervous system detects stimuli through sensory neurons, transmits signals through relay neurons in the brain and spinal cord, and causes effects in the body through motor neurons.

This document discusses the relationship between anatomical structures of the nervous system and positions/roles in baseball. It compares the meninges (membranes covering the brain) to different defensive positions, with the dura mater as the outfield, arachnoid membrane as the infield, and pia mater as the pitcher and catcher. It also relates the cerebral spinal fluid to coaching staff who make adjustments, and structures of the spinal cord and brainstem to different coaches on the field. Throughout, it draws parallels between anatomical functions and positions or aspects of playing baseball.
Mental toughness is the ability to focus in stressful situations. The document provides 8 tips to develop mental toughness: 1) Envision being strong, 2) Keep focus internally on the court, 3) Avoid overthinking, 4) Don't let opponents or crowds sway you, 5) Focus on the positive, 6) Breathe to regain composure, 7) Surround yourself with a supportive environment, and 8) Have fun to reduce anxiety. The document also discusses techniques like imagery, visualization, attention control, self-talk, and breathing to help control anxiety.
The document discusses the structure and function of the nervous system. It describes how the central nervous system, made up of the brain and spinal cord, coordinates the body's activities through the neurons. The peripheral nervous system connects to and relays messages from the central nervous system through sensory neurons, motor neurons, and interneurons. The three main sections of the brain - the cerebrum, cerebellum, and brainstem - each have distinct roles in controlling voluntary movement, balance, and involuntary functions. Major nervous system diseases and their prevalence and economic costs are also listed.
The document discusses different types of reflexes in the human body, including inborn/intrinsic reflexes which are involuntary responses to stimuli and help maintain basic functions, and learned/acquired reflexes which develop over time through repetition. It describes the components of the reflex arc, including receptors, sensory and motor neurons, integration centers, and effectors. Specific reflexes are discussed in detail such as the stretch reflex, knee jerk reflex, reciprocal inhibition, and plantar reflex. The roles of muscle spindles, gamma motor neurons, and Golgi tendon organs in reflexes are also explained.

5 types of Glia- The Glia represents the Play Book!
1.) Astrocytes - these are star shape cells that are located in the brain.
Astrocytes are like inside zone (which is a running play) This play gets the offense
going it, it transfer all the hard work they put in practice into the game.
2.) Microglia - Like astrocytes, microglia digest parts of dead neurons. Like the
Astrocytes this play breaks down the defense. It sends different players different
ways. (Which is a passing play)
3.) Oligodendroglia - Provide the insulation (myelin) to neurons in the central
nervous system. This play provides the spark in the offense. This play succeeds
every time its ran. Kick (This is a running play.
4.) Schwann cells - Provide the insulation (myelin) to neurons in the peripheral
nervous system. This play provides the points on the score board because we score
on it every time. All Go (pass play)
5. 4.) Don’t let your Competitions Size Intimidate you, because you Can’t
Measure Heart: “Autonomic Nervous system”
A lot of times athletes do is that they compare their outside physical appearance determine how they
match up against their opponent. This is a bad habit of the mind that you must overcome, lock up, and
get rid of! If you want to measure anything measure your heart, because how hard you push yourself
and your body’s limits will depict a much more intimidating opponent. Let your opponent know that
you have no fear! Next time in practice on the field, “ Am I taking advantage of my Autonomic side of
me, Am I pushing my outer body to do what I want it to do, Am I working harder than my opponent,
and Am I flipping the switch every time I step out of that locker room?”. The day you answers these
questions with an “I Am”, is the day you will say and believe whole heartedly that “I Am Great”.

DIFFERENT. ONE ATHLETE OF MINE HAD A STIMULUS SPEED OF 20.41 M/S WHICH WAS FASTER THAN A LOT OF MY OTHER
PLAYERS BUT DOESN’T MEAN HE WAS BETTER.
3.) HIS RESULTS DIFFERED FROM OTHER ATHLETES IS BECAUSE HIS PHYSIQUE IS DIFFERENT THAN OTHER ATHLETES THAT
HAVE BEEN TESTED. THEIR REACTION TIMES MAY BE FASTER BUT DOES NOT MEAN THAT THEIR ATHLETE IS BETTER
THAN MY ATHLETE.
