What are the 3 things that regular performance of exercise routines do?
- Muscle memory
- Progression
- Adaptation
Sense that lets us perceive the location and movements of our body parts
Proprioception
Recall movements automatically, maintain consistency in movements
Muscle memory
Fibrous connective tissue that connects the muscle to the bone
Tendons
Ability of a muscle to return to its original length after being stretched
Elasticity
Give 3 reasons how movement routines connect to your well-being
- Affects health-related components
- Alleviates stress
- Improves self-perception and confidence
3 things to do before a workout
- Warm-up and stretching
- Different warm-up
- Stretching
What happens when we do a different warm up?
- Elevate heart rate
- Prepare synovial fluids
A high intense workout also requires a high intense warm-up. TRUE or FALSE?
TRUE
3 types of stretching
- Dynamic
- Static
- Ballistic
Moving stretches
Dynamic
Stretching while position is held steady
Static
Stretching that uses momentum, sometimes bouncing
Ballistic
3 functions of muscle relating to human movement
- Produce skeletal movement
- Maintain posture and body position
- Assist in joint stability
Give 2 significance of learning body planes
- For diagnosing musculoskeletal disorders and the location of injuries
- Provides a universal language for professionals

Used to describe the relative position of a body part in relationship to another body part (LaPres et al., 2016)
Directional terms
Describe the anatomical position
Person standing erect with head, eyes, and palms facing forward. Feet together, toes pointing forward, arms hanging by the sides
Toward the front or abdominal surface of the body
Anterior (ventral)
Toward the back of the body
Posterior (dorsal)
Toward the top/head
Superior (cranial/cephalic)
Away from the top/head
Inferior (caudal)
Toward the midline of the body
Medial
Away from the midline of the body
Lateral
Closer to the origin, attached end of limb, or midline of body
Proximal
Farther from the origin, attached end of limb, or midline of body
Distal
At or near the center of the body or organ
Central
External or away from the center
Peripheral
Pertaining to the outer boundary of body cavities
Parietal

3 main planes that divide the human body
Frontal plane
Median/sagittal/midsagittal plane
Transverse plane
The frontal plane divides the body into _____ and _____ portions.
anterior, posterior
The transverse plane is perpendicular to the _____ of the body.
longitudinal axis
Forward backward movements
Sagittal plane
Side-to-side movements
Frontal plane
Rotational movements
Transverse plane
Primary movements occurring in the sagittal plane
Flexion
Extension
Hyperextension
Dorsiflexion
Plantarflexion
Anteriorly directed sagittal plane rotation
Flexion
Returns a body segment to anatomical position from flexion position
Extension
Rotation beyond anatomical position in the opposite direction of flexion
Hyperextension
Major frontal plane rotational movements
Abduction
Adduction
Other than abduction and adduction, frontal plane movements also include:
Lateral flexion
Elevation
Depression
Inversion
Eversion
Radial and ulnar deviation
Transverse plane movements include:
