Proprioception
 Agility
 Balance
 Coordination

Need strength and flexibility first



Muscle too weak can’t control movement
Flexibility to be functional
Proprioception- body’s ability to transmit
position sense, interpret information, and
respond un/consciously to stimulation
through appropriate execution of posture and
movement




Know where our fingers are
Maintain balance
Change free throw after a miss
Move from grass to concrete
Receptors

Cutaneous



Muscle and Tendon- muscle spindles and
GTO



Vibration. Skin stretching
Injured body segments use these to supplement
other damaged receptors
GTO stimulates muscle relaxation
Muscle spindle stimulates muscle contraction
Joint receptors

In joint capsule to measure joint motion
CNS


Spinal cord- quick reflexes
Brain stem- correlation center


Extremities, eyes, ears
Cerebral Cortex- conscious movement

Correct movement learned here and consciously
controlled before it is an automatic response

I.e. typing or texting
Balance



Maintain equilibrium by controlling body’s
COG over base of support
Vestibular- static position and motion
Oculomotor


Which is easier- eyes open or closed?
Ice skaters and gymnasts disregard visual imput
so they don’t get dizzy
Balance needed for safe RTP
Coordination

Smooth pattern of activity produced with
muscles acting together with appropriate
intensity and timing
Coordination Components

Activity Perception



Awareness of volitional
muscle activity
Repetition

Feedback

Activity performed, CNS
evaluates to make
adjustments, activity
repeated with
adjustments made

More accurate with
repetition and
adjustments
Inhibition


Undesired muscle
activity
Can’t be trained. Start
slow, controlled and
progress
Coordination Development






Simple to complex
Static to dynamic
Increase speed, force, complexity
Repetition
Repetition
Accuracy- if they fatigue and become less
accurate, discontinue
Agility




Control direction of body/segment during
rapid movement
What UE agility is needed?
Slow, simple activity to normal speed
Reflect sport position
In general




Balance first, coordination next, then agility
Static to dynamic
Simple to complex
Repetition
