Anatomical Position
Standing
facing foward
arms at side
palms facing forward
legs together with the feet pointing forward.
Origin
Attachment nearest the midline of the body and / or the end attached to the least movable bone
Insertion
Point at which muscle is attached to a bone moved by the muscle.
Where two bones come together
Joint
Joint action. Occurs around the traverse axis through the joint.
b) limb movements in saggital plane
Flexion
Joint action. Occurs around the transverse axis through these joints.
b) joint motion is moving from flexion bank to / past anatomical neutral in sagital plane
Extension
Joint action. Extending beyond anatomical neutral
Hyperextension
Joint action. Frontal plane.
Example: lean th trunk of the head to the right
Lateral flexion
Joint action. Occurs around the either the anterior-posterior axes or transverse axes.
b) joint movement away the anatomical position in the frontal plane or transverse plane
Abduction
Joint action. Occurs around the either the anterior-posterior axes or transverse axes.
b) joint movement returning from a position of abduction
Adduction
Joint action. Abduction of the scapula
Protaction (scapula abduction)
Joint action. Adduction of the scapula
Retraction
Joint motion. Four movements: flexion, adduction, extension and abduction
Circumduction
1) Capacity for movement at a given joint in a specific direction
Range of Motion.
Different variables in Range of Motion
1 ) Musculature
2 ) limb length
3) Joint capsule
4) ligaments
5) injuries and surgeries
6) other
What helps improve quality of movement?
increasing ROM
Streching
1) dynamic stretching
2) passive stretching
3) PNF stretching (proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation)
Types of range of motion
1) Passive range of motion (outside force)
2 ) active range of motion (individual)
3) resisted range of motion (objet)
Planes of motion. Splits the body into left and right halves.
1) flexion and extension
Saggital (median).
Planes of motion. Splits the body into front and back halves.
1) abbduction and adduction
Frontal (coronal)
Planes of motion. Splits the body into top and bottom halves.
Rotation
Transverse horizontal
Rate of change in the momentum of a body is proportional to the applied form and takes place in the direction in which the force acts
Newton’s second law of Motion (Law of Acceleration)
Isometric muscle contraction performed at the midpoint of a repetition.
The Peak Contraction Principle
Speed at which a muscle contracts and performs a movement.
The Velocity of a Contraction Principle
Neutral spine (ideal alignment)
- All three curves of the spine cervical, thoracic, and lumbar are present in good alignment.
2) every joint is in and optimal position
3) differs from persona to person
4) regular exercise supports a healthy spine
