6. Tissues and organs that react to impact
and direction of the force:
1.TENSILE FORCES – are those that act
away from the center of the structure,
causing a pull or stretch.
2. COMPRESSIVE FORCES - impact the
center causing it to bend or fold.
3. SHEAR FORCES – are opposing forces
toward the different ends of the structure
causing it to twist.

by excessive
stretching
that causes
tears in the

tendon unit.
12. 3. FRACTURES
Are breaks in
the continuity
of the bone. It
usually occurs
as a result of
high impact
forces that
cause the bone
to bend or
twist.
17. 1. STRESS FRACTURE
Stress fractures are tiny cracks in a bone.
Fractures are caused by the repetitive
application of force often by overuse such
as repeatedly jumping up and down or
running long distances.
18. 2. TENDINOPATHY/TENDITIS
The most common overuse injury in
sports involves the muscle-tendon. It
usually due to muscle imbalance between
muscle pairs.
19. 3. OSTEOARTHRITIS
It is the wear and tear of a joint
that results to its deterioration.
20. 4. BURSITIS
Bursa is a small balloon like sac that can
