5. Retrieval Practise Challenge Grid What is your score?
Multifidus & transverse abdominus
Speed of contraction – slow
Force of contraction - low
Frontal, sagittal & transverse
Agonist- tibialis anterior
Antagonist - gastrocnemius
A group of fibres and its neurone
Slow oxidative – high
Fast oxidative glycolytic – high
Fast glycolytic - low
Eccentric & concentric
Improves balance, posture and alignment./ Increases twisting strength/ The greater the core muscle tone, the greater the core stability and posture/ Minimises risk of injury and lower back pain.
All fibres in a motor unit will contract at the same time and with maximum force if the action potential reaches a threshold charge.

6. Learning Objectives
To recall information related to the muscular system.
To understand key terms, definitions and specific language.
To be able to answer questions related to the muscular system with confidence and accuracy.
Think-pair-share
Identify different movements and the muscles responsible for them THINK – you have 3 minutes silent, individual thinking time. PAIR – you now have 5 minutes to discuss with your partner the possible answers to the question. SHARE – share with the rest of the group and take some notes on examples they may have that you don’t.
