RANGE OF MOTION AND MUSCLE STRENGTHENING EXERCISES PRESENTED BY: MISS. SHWETA SHARMA M.SC. NURSING 2nd YEAR COLLEGE OF NURSING AIIMS, JODHPUR
MUSCLE-STRENGTHENING EXERCISES •These are activities that use the principles of strength training, resistance training, or muscular strength and endurance exercises.
TWO TYPES OF EXERCISES •Isometric exercise is when we tighten our muscles but do not move our joints. These exercises help to build muscle without having to move painful joints. •Isotonic exercise is when we move our joints to make our muscles stronger.
Purpose of muscle strengthening exercises: • To increase muscle strength and endurance. • To maintain normal physiological function. • To prevent complications caused by immobility. • To improve physical activity. • To increase joint flexibility. • To increase general physical health.
• For rehabilitation and to address an impairment. • Strength training protects bone health and muscle mass. • Strength training helps to develop better body mechanics. • Strength training can help with chronic disease management.
RANGE OF MOTION EXERCISES • For head and neck
Trunk: •Flexion and extension •Lateral flexion
•Arm and shoulder
Elbow:
Wrist:
Fingers:
Thumb:
Hip:
Knee:
Ankle:
Toes:
Muscle strengthening exercises •Do it for 30 seconds
Hold for a count of 5 seconds, relax and repeat. Repeat 10 times on each leg
Glute squeeze Hold for a count of 5 seconds. Then relax for 10 seconds Repeat steps 1-3 10 times.
Heel slides Repeat steps 10 times on each leg.
Push-ups Repeat steps 10 times.
Shoulder raise Repeat steps 10 times.
Others: • Weight lifting • Working with resistance bands • Heavy gardening, such as digging and shovelling • Climbing stairs • Hill walking • Cycling • Dancing • Push-ups, sit-ups and squats • Yoga
Benefits of physical activities in neurological conditions: • Balance training with electromyogram-triggered functional electrical stimulation to improve static balance, dynamic balance, and ankle muscle activation suggest positive results with stroke patients.
• Exercise improves the physical and emotional well-being in patients who already have Alzheimer's disease. • Patients with neurological disorders who exercise experience less stiffness, as well as reduction in, and even reversal of muscle wasting.
•Exercise improves gait, balance, tremor, flexibility, grip strength and motor coordination in patients with Parkinson’s disease.
Patient education • Always warm-up before beginning exercise routine and cool down at the end. • If planning to work out for 30 minutes, start with 10-minute sessions and work your way up. • Exercise facial muscles, jaw, and voice when possible.
• Sing or read aloud, exaggerating lip movements. • Make faces in the mirror. • Chew food vigorously, avoid swallowing large pieces. Instead, chew each piece for at least 20 seconds. • Work out in a safe environment. Avoid slippery floors, poor lighting, throw rugs, and other potential dangers.
• If having difficulty balancing, exercise within reach of a grab bar or rail. If having trouble standing or getting up, try exercising in bed rather than on the floor or an exercise mat. • Rest muscles for at least one day between strength training sessions. • Stop when experiencing unusual symptoms or pain.
