    Study Notes

    Intended Learning Outcomes

    • Comprehend the sciences related to human movement.
    • Relate body parts to good posture, lifting, and alignment.
    • Describe the functions and structure of bones, muscles, and the skeletal system.
    • Demonstrate proper body movements.

    Introduction

    • Specific skills are basic human movements, starting at conception and continuing until death.
    • Infant movements include flexing, stretching limbs, rooting, sucking, and tonic neck reflexes.
    • Throughout childhood, children develop more complex movements, including balance, muscle strength, coordination, and endurance.
    • In adulthood, movements become more accurate and precise for daily life activities.
    • Sports Biomechanics focuses on reducing injury risk and improving performance in human movement.
    • Exercise Physiology studies the internal systems and how they respond to exercise.
    • Sports Psychology studies human behavior related to sports and exercise.
    • Anatomy studies the structure of organisms and their movement mechanisms.
    • Epidemiology studies the factors impacting health and disease.

    Physical, Nutritional, Hydration, and Rest Factors

    • Body composition, injuries, and rest hinder movement.
    • Obesity and injuries make movement difficult.
    • Healthy people have more control over their movements.
    • Proper nutrition and rest improve strength and overall performance.

    Parts of the Body

    • All parts of the body work together for optimal movement.
    • Injuries or weaknesses in one part affect the entire system.
    • Understanding each part's function and how they interact is vital for understanding movement.

    Background Knowledge of the Basic Parts of the Body

    • The body is divided into four parts: head, trunk, upper extremities, and lower extremities.
    • Each part performs specific functions enabling movement.
    • Understanding body structure and their functions is essential for proper posture and movement.

    Factors Influencing Bone Health

    • Heredity influences bone density.
    • Proper nutrition is required for bone health, especially calcium.
    • Hormonal status, particularly estrogen, affect bone mass density, particularly in females.
    • Exercise and activity level are important factors for bone development, especially during childhood and adolescence.

    Muscular System

    • The muscular system is responsible for all movement in the body, from small twitches to complex coordinated efforts like breathing.
    • Muscles are categorized as involuntary and voluntary muscles depending on how they are controlled.
    • There are approximately 700 muscles in the human body and each plays a role in movement.
    • Muscle types include skeletal, smooth, and cardiac muscle which exhibit differences in structure, composition, and function.

    Types of Muscular Contraction

    • Isometric: Muscle tension without movement of the body part.
    • Concentric: Muscle shortens to produce movement.
    • Eccentric: Muscle lengthens under tension.

    The Circulatory System

    • The heart, blood vessels, and blood transport oxygen and nutrients throughout the body.
    • Blood circulation is a specific process involving the right and left ventricles and auricles of the heart and lungs.
    • Blood vessels carry blood and its components to and from every part of the body.

    The Respiratory System

    • The respiratory system consists of organs like lungs and other air passages, responsible for intake of oxygen and release of carbon dioxide.
    • The respiratory system has essential functions for life.

    The Nervous System

    • The nervous system controls every action in the body.
    • Neurons transmit impulses, sending and receiving messages to and from the brain.
    • The nervous system is essential for all bodily functions, including controlling body temperature.

    The Excretory System

    • The excretory system removes excess metabolic wastes and fluids.
    • Organs in this system include the lungs, skin, kidneys, liver, and other organs.

    The Endocrine System

    • The endocrine system uses hormones to regulate various body functions including growth and development and reproduction.
    • Glands of the endocrine system are the major players in this role.

    The Digestive System

    • The digestive system converts food into energy and nutrients.
    • The digestive system encompasses all the main organs working together for this function.

    Common Terms in Anatomical Structure

    • Terms and locations of specific parts of the body are described.

    Anatomy of Joints and Movements

    • Different types of joints with their respective movements are emphasized.

    Three Planes of Human Anatomy

    • The frontal/coronal, sagittal/midsagittal, and transverse/horizontal planes are explained.

    Three Axes of Rotation

    • The planes of movement relating to rotational axes are explained.

    Fundamental Motor Skills

    • Categorization of movement skills, especially locomotor and axial movements.

    Manipulative Skills

    • Skills that involve using objects to create impact or receive it are explained.
