If the strength of a muscle is "good" (grade 4/5) and active ROM cannot be done, repetitive muscle setting exercises will accomplish each of the following except:
A)Maintain mobility between muscle fibers.
B)Develop or maintain an awareness of the sensation of a muscle contraction.
C)Increase the strength in the muscle.
D)Enhance circulation within the muscle.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Repetitive muscle setting exercises are designed to maintain muscle tone and prevent atrophy, enhance circulation, and help with the awareness of muscle contraction. However, they are not significantly effective in increasing the strength of a muscle that is already graded as "good" (4/5). To increase muscle strength significantly, more resistance exercises would be required.
