Study Notes
Supine Exercise and Planes of Motion
- A supine exercise that involves rotating the torso to touch one elbow to the opposite knee occurs in the transverse plane. If the knee touched on the same side, it's in the sagittal plane.
- Squats primarily work the gluteus maximus and quadriceps muscles.
- Lunges are unilateral exercises targeting quadriceps, hamstrings, glutes, and stabilizer muscles.
- The bear crawl emphasizes posterior chain muscles (hamstrings, glutes, lower back).
- Arm scissors are a supine exercise extending the arm backward.
- Spider-man lunges combine a plank position with knee-to-elbow movements.
Skeletal Muscle and Movement
- The rectus femoris is a long anterior thigh muscle originating from the pelvis.
- The sartorius is the longest thigh muscle.
- Hinging exercises target the posterior chain muscles (hamstrings, glutes, lower back).
- Movements in the frontal plane are parallel to the plane dividing the body into anterior and posterior parts.
- Baseball pitching involves torso rotation in the transverse plane.
- Sumo squats involve wider stance and outward-pointing knees and toes (45-degree angle).
- Bicep curls (concentric) and lowering the weight (eccentric).
Muscle Names and Functions
- Muscles are named based on location, size, and fiber direction.
- Ribs protect the thoracic cavity's internal organs.
- Skeletal muscle is voluntary and striated, enabling body movement.
- Cardiac muscle is involuntary and striated, functioning in the heart's pumping action.
- Smooth muscle is non-striated and involuntary, controlling internal organ functions (like digestion).
Exercise Routines and Benefits
- Regular exercise routines improve cardiovascular health and endurance.
- A diverse exercise routine improves overall health (balance, strength, and flexibility).
- Improved cardiovascular fitness results from structured, regular exercise.
- Exercise improves muscle strength, overall well-being, and cardiovascular fitness.
- Exercise extensibility means a muscle's ability to stretch and lengthen without damage (within its natural capacity).
- Exercise elasticity means the muscle returning to its original shape after stretching.
- Consistent exercise forms beneficial habits.
- The rectus abdominis is the primary muscle involved in the dead bug exercise.
Exercise Types and Descriptions
- The dart position exercise involves lying face down, extending limbs, and lifting the chest.
- The seated-to-kneeling hip hinge involves sitting on the ground, bending legs, shifting weight forward, and rising onto knees.
- The seated to kneeling hip hinge involves drawing the belly button toward the spine while standing tall and squatting with feet hip-width apart.
- The hip flexor stretch involves kneeling on one knee and moving hips forward.
- The inchworm exercise involves a hands-on-ground posture and forward/backward hand movement.
Other Exercise and Fitness Concepts
- Coordinating movements in exercise routines improves overall body strength.
- Exercises like jogging, cycling, and swimming emphasize cardiovascular endurance.
- Strength training, Olympic weightlifting, and powerlifting emphasize strength.
- The three types of energy systems in the human body include anaerobic, aerobic, and phosphagen.
- Closed kinetic chain exercises fix the hand or foot in place.
- Natural human movements like bending, squatting, lunging, picking up objects, walking, and climbing stairs are mimicked in certain exercises.
- Cardiac muscles pump blood throughout the body.
- Improving overall health and preventing chronic illnesses are primary goals of exercise.
- Exercise benefits physical and mental well-being.
- Everyday task functionality positively impacted by coordinated routines.
- The clavicle (s-shaped) is the pectoral girdle bone.
- Five pairs of false ribs exist.
