Soc 21-Planes And Axes Of Movement Flashcards
What movements occur when doing a front and back tucked or piked somersaults
Movement in the saggital plane about the frontal axis
What movement occurs when performing cartwheels
Movement in the frontal plane about the sagittal axis
What movement occurs when performing a full twist jump in trampolining
Movement in the transverse plane about the vertical axis when performing a full twist jump in trampolining
What are the three planes
Sagittal,Frontal,Transverse
What are the 3 axis
Frontal,Sagittal,Vertical
What is a plane
An imaginary flat surface that divides the body into sections
What is a sagittal plane and what movement happens because of it,incl sporting
A sagittal plane divides the body into left and right sides,Flexion and Extension is a movement of it and somersaulting in gymnastics
What is a frontal plane and what movements occur because of it,incl sporting
Imaginary line that Divides the body into front and back,Movements are adduction and Abduction and a cartwheel
What is a transverse plane and what movements occur because of it,including sporting movements
Divides the body horizontally into top and bottom,Movements,rotation,rotating in the circle when throwing a discus
What is an axis
An imaginary straight line around which something moves
What is the frontal axis and what does it allow for
Runs from side to side,allows for flexion and extension (front somersault)
What is the sagittal axis and what does it allow for
Runs from front to back allow abduction and adduction (cartwheel)
What is the vertical axis and what does it do
Runs from top to bottom,allows rotation of the body in an upright position (trampoline twist)
