increased
No pain no gain: a common misunderstanding among exercisers
Compliance: quality of an aerobic exercise floor to absorb shock and give under pressure
Resilience: quality of an aerobic exercise floor to bounce back and return energy
Stability: quality of an aerobic exercise floor to have a solid structure that supports weight
Uniformity: quality of an aerobic exercise floor to be a smooth, flat surface without bumps or obstructions
Friction: quality of an aerobic exercise floor to not be slippery, but allow for some glide of the foot. Does not cause abrupt, jolting stops
Hygiene: quality of an aerobic exercise floor to be easy to clean, doesn’t accumulate perspiration or staph infections or become unsanitary
microtrauma: a great amount of the impact shock that feet endure during aerobic exercise
Overtraining: a phenomenon related to the no pain, no gain theory
cueing: preparing the class for the next move
RICE: an acronym for Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation, an appropriate treatment for the first 48 hours or until the injured can get to a medical professional
first aid: Initial treatment techniques for injuries and sudden illnesses
CPR: cardiopulmonary resuscitation
Emergency medical technicians: individuals that can determine the nature and seriousness of a patient’s injury or illness.
Paramedics: professionals that are trained to provide advanced care
head tilt chin lift: a method used to open an airway during CPR.
rescue breathing: formerly called artificial respiration, a technique of gently and rhythmically breathing for the victim.
hyperextended: overstressed muscle
Wounds: breaks in the body tissues
Abrasions: scrapes of the skin’s surface.
Punctures: wounds received from sharp objects like nails, wood splinters, pens, pencils, or pins, that make a small hole in the skin.
avulsion: a forcible tearing away of tissue from the body.
Incisions: cuts in the skin, often caused by sharp objects.
infection control: precautions to control the possibility of infection
Shin splints: a catchall term for the many aches and pains that occur along the tibia
plantar fascia: a wide section of connective tissue between the heel and the metatarsals that lends an important base of support to the arch
stress fracture: a crack in the metatarsals or a shifting of the metatarsals
Achilles tendonitis: the result of two main conditions; a very tight or short Achilles tendon that has been strained, or a drastically increased exercise schedule.
ankle sprain: foot suddenly twists or inverts without warning
flatfoot: tendency to roll the arch in toward the ground
supinate: roll the body weight to the outside of the foot
meniscus cartilage: one of the semicircular bands of elastic tissue on top of the tibia
Neuromas: exercise related nerve injuries
orthotics: shoe inserts based on a mold of the feet to balance body weight evenly over the feet
chondromalacia: the softening of cartilage most frequently in the patella kneecap.
clavicle: collarbone
humerus: upper-arm bone
scapula: shoulder blade
dislocation: displacement of a bone end from a joint
abducted: Arm held away from the body
Bursae: small sacs filled with synovial fluid, are found throughout the body and surround every joint area.
Bursitis: rupture of bursae, takes time to heal and is very painful.
carpal tunnel syndrome: Irritations and swelling at the base of the wrist
Epicondylitis: involves inflammation of the bony protrusions of the elbow
bone fracture: occurs when there’s a break in the bone
closed fracture: formerly referred to as a simple fracture; has no opening in the skin
Open fractures: formerly referred to as compound fractures are more serious because the broken end of a bone pierces the skin, creating an open wound
ligaments: the soft tissue surrounding the joint
syncope: involves a partial or complete loss of consciousness because of reduced blood supply to the brain for a short time.
Uneven pupil: a symptom of shock
convulsion: an unconscious attack usually of violent onset
Epilepsy: a chronic disease, usually of unknown cause, characterized by repeated convulsions

alignment of the body
Podiatrists: medical professionals that care for Injuries or conditions affecting the lower leg and foot
Massage therapists: medical professionals that concentrate on the skeletal muscles and pressure
