22/8/2013 19 Comments EPIPThere is new material on the EPIP which is new for most of you, however, like your GCSE analysis of performance. There are videos of a high grade EPIP from OCR broken down into the five section for you to look at in your own time. I'll add some more specifc elements closer to the start of term.

There is a brief video of the format you can use for the practical section of the course. Have a look and base your video around the same format. You do have to stand there with a piece of paper outlining who you are.

Issues around Joint Stability.

So what would you say are the main points? Can you summarise them?

To summerise I'd say that you have to be able to balance the level of physical activity to ensure that the muscles surrounding the joint are strong enough so that it is stabilised, while also ensuring that you are not overworking them - which would loosen them, which could lead to joint problems like tendonitis. Either way it could lead to injury so you would have to find the balance between both levels to prevent this from occurring.

-High level activiy can lead to injury with unstable joints.

So what type of physical activity is suitable to maintain joint strength, and what if any should we avoid?

Joints are areas where bones connect together by specialist tissues such as ligaments, cartilage, and tendons. These tissues are what gives the joints stability. Bones within each joint are specifically shaped to “fit together,” by nature which gives these places more stability.

I Would say that moderate exercise is good for the joints to stop them becoming unstable and shortened. exercises that are a range of high and low impact would be ideal as on the other hand too muchhigh impact can cause

*Too much high impact can also cause a loss in synovial fluid and there for leading to unstable joints. A good activity to do that is not high impact or straining the joints is swimming as there is not weight bearing.

good that you use a sporting example. However, the key issue is around ligaments.

Not sure what you mean by Joint shortened. This is not a good answer, some of it makes no sense.

Physical activity is a crucial influence in the functioning of the joints. Exercise strengthens the structure of the joints leading to an increase in stability, so if you lack regular exercise it leads to a decrease in stability. Inactivity can also lead to a reduction in synovial fluid released into the joint making it prone to other disorders. High impact and contact sports can lead to damage of less stable joints. So to conclude essentially you have to find a balance between doing to little and too much exercise to avoid joints being to weak or strengthening the joints excessively to the point of ligament damage

A very good answer, however, I think sporting examples will help as well as the mention of weight management.

With an excessive amount of pain or discomfort, joint stability us crucial. Stability is balanced by both active (muscular strength) and passive (ligaments) constraints.

Sam this is not an acceptable answer. I suggest that you redo this and try and answer the question.

Joint stability is very import and if you do not exercise regularly then your ligaments will shorten making then lose their elasticity and make you prone to injury. Another effect with not exercising regularly is that there will be less synovial fluid that is secreted from the synovial membrabne, again making you more prone to injury.
