Q

body building lore has people bench press or perform a push-up by holding the shoulder blades in retraction to eliminate the serratus anterior function of scapular protraction . this creates a greater demand on the pecs to bring the humerus into horizontal flexion.

Classification of Basic Movement Patterns

A

Knee Dominant
Hip Dominant
Horizontal Pull
Horizontal Push
Vertical Pull
Vertical Push
Rotational and Diagonal
Anti-Rotation
Anti-Flexion
Anti-Extension
Anti-Lateral Flexion

54
Q

this category is classified by movements in which the knee is the dominant lever during the exercise

A

knee dominant

55
Q

this category can include hip-hinging movements, it is used to identify all exercises in which the hip joint plays the primary role

A

hip dominant

56
Q

this category of exercises involves moving away towards the torso. it consists of movements in the sagittal or transverse plane with elbow flexion

A

horizontal pull

57
Q

this category of exercises involves moving away straight out in front of you , away from the torso . it consists of movements in the sagittal and transverse plane with elbow extension

A

horizontal push

58
Q

this category of exercises also include moving a load or weight vertically in relation to the torso or at least in that direction . it usually consists of movements in the sagittal frontal or transverse planes. it’s movements create shoulder extension and or adduction with elbow flexion

A

vertical pull

59
Q

this category of exercises includes all exercises that move the load or weight vertically in relation to the torso , or at least in that direction . it usually consists of movements in the sagittal plane or frontal planes . this normally means it’s movements create shoulder abduction and or flexion and extension of the elbow.

A

vertical push

60
Q

this category of exercise is primarily associated with movements of a rotational nature , typically within the transverse plane. this movements may also incorporate some form of pushing and or pulling movements.

A

Rotational and Diagonal

61
Q

are designed to challenge the lumbopelvic complex muscle (i.e. the core) to prevent rotation in the transverse plane and improve stiffness and stability of the spine.

A

Anti-Rotation

62
Q

are designed to challenge the lumbopelvic complex and spinal erector muscles to prevent flexion and improve stiffness and stability of the spine

A

Anti-Flexion

63
Q

are designed to challenge the lumbopelvic complex and spinal flexor muscles to prevent extension in the sagittal plane and improve stiffness and stability of the spine

A

Anti-Extension

64
Q

are designed to challenge the lumbopelvic complex and spinal erector muscles to prevent lateral flexion and improve stiffness and stability of the spine
