lack of check = excessive rebound after a strong isometric force

types of cerebellar tremor postural
kinetic

action tremor = tremor only occurs when they're moving

postural tremor = tremor when the muscles are maintaining static positions against gravity

kinetic tremor = tremor when muscles are producing active voluntary movement

hypotonia = decreased extensor tone

hypotonia is due to decreased excitatory drive to vestibulospinal and reticulospinal pathways

slowed walking
characteristics of ataxia postural unsteadiness
coordination deficits
