Movement Analysis & Data Flashcards
Define what a plane and what an axis is
Plane =Refers to how movements occurs at a joint along a certain direction.
Axis=Refers to how movement occurs around the joint.
What phrase can you use to recall and match the planes with the correct axes?
Plane Axis
Some Times
Fun Starts
Too Late
Or
Plane Axis
Simple Tom
Fell Slightly
Too Late
Saggital plane———- Transverse Axis
Frontal plane———— Saggital axis
Transverse Plane ——- Longitudinal axis
Identify the Plane and Axis for the two movements in this image {2 marks}
*Remember to pretend you’re performing the movement so you make the right decision
Plane= Frontal
Axis= Sagittal
Both movements are to the left or to the right which is along the Frontal plane
Identify the Plane and Axis for the movementin this image {2 marks}
*Remember you can pretend to perfom the movement to help you identify the correct Plane
Plane= Sagittal
Axis= Transverse
Identify the Plane and Axis for the two movements in this image {2 marks}
*Remember you can pretend to perform the movement to help you identify the correct Plane
Plane= Transverse
Axis= Longitudinal
Because the athlete is spinning it is along the transverse plane!
Identify the Plane and Axis when the arm bends at the elbow {2 marks}
*Remember to pretend you’re performing the movement so you make the right decision
Plane= Sagittal
Axis= Transverse
*READ THE QUESTION, and focus on the image! it specifies at the elbow which starts in the Frontal plane and then moves into the Sagittal plane.
Describe the movement that occurs in the Sagittal, Frontal and Transverse planes.
Also provide a sporting example for each
Sagittal- forwards and backwards movements.
Example 1= Running Example 2= Forward roll Example 3= Somersault
Frontal- side to side movements.
Example 1= Cartwheels Example 2= A GK diving Example 3= A sidestep
Transverse-Rotational or turning movements
Example 1= Ice skater performing a 360 degree twist/spin.
Example 2= A Hammer or Discus Thrower rotating in the circle
What acronym should you use to recall the different types of movement?
Can you name the eight different types of movement?
FEARPAD C
Flexion, Extension, Abduction, Rotation, Plantarflexion, Adduction, Dorsiflexion,Circumduction
If you know all of the movements, then you can work out the correct one through the process of elimination
Define Flexion and give a sporting example
Define Extension and give a sporting example
Flexion= Decrease in the angle of bones at a joint
Example 1- Upward phase of bicep curl
Example 2- Bring the foot towards the Gluteals before kicking a ball
Extension=Increase in the angle of bones at a joint
Example 1- Downward phase of bicep curl
Example 2- Bringingthe tibia forwardwhen kicking a ball
Define Abduction and give a sporting example
Define Adduction and give a sporting example
Abduction= Movement of a bone away from the midline of the body.
Example 1- Outward phase of the breaststroke
Example 2- Outward phase of a star jump
Adduction= Movement of a bone towards the midline of the body.
Example 1- Inward phase of the breaststroke
Example 2-Inward phase of a star jump
I strongly recommend the breaststroke example
Define Rotation and give a sporting example
Define Circumduction and give a sporting example
Rotation- Movement around an axis
Example 1- A gymnastperforming a Somersault
Example 2- A gymnast performing a Handspring
Circumduction- Movement around a joint, which occurs in more than one plane
Example 1-Performing a serve in tennis
Example 2-Bowling a cricket ball
Example 3- Backstroke swimming
Define Plantarflexion and give a sporting example
Define Dorsiflexion and give a sporting example
Plantar flexion= Points the toes downwards and increases the angle at the ankle joint
Example 1- A sprinter’s ankle when driving out of the blocks
Dorsiflexion=Points the toes upwards and decreases the angle at the ankle joint
Example 1- A footballer pointing there toes upwards to control a pass
Identifythe movements to this athlete at the Ankle, Knee, Elbow and Shoulder
1= Dorsiflexion 2=Plantarflexion
3= Extension 4=Flexion
5= Abduction 6=Extension
Identifythe movements to this athlete at the Ankle, Knee,Hip and Elbow
1= Plantarflexion 2=Dorsiflexion
3=Extension 4=Flexion
5=Flexion 6=Extension
7=Flexion
Identifythe movements to this athlete at the Ankle, Knee,Hip and Elbow
1= Plantarflexion 2= Extension
3= Extension 4= Abduction
5= Extension
