Study Notes
Movement Enhancement
- Movement enhancement is a strategy, technique, and practice for improving efficiency, effectiveness, and quality of movement.
- Includes enhancing athletic performance, improving everyday movements, and optimizing biomechanics to prevent injuries.
- Incorporates strategies used in sports training, physical therapy, and everyday fitness programs.
- Key principles include motor control, flexibility/mobility, injury prevention, and rehabilitation.
Movement Enhancement Applications
- Athletic Training: Used to enhance performance, speed, agility, and strength in athletes.
- Physical Therapy: Helps patients regain movement capabilities after injuries or surgeries.
- Fitness Programs: Ensures proper exercise technique for maximum benefits, minimizing injury risk.
- Daily Life Activities: Improves posture and movement patterns to reduce chronic pain and injuries in everyday routines.
What is Movement?
- Movement is the process of changing position or location, using muscles and skeletal systems.
- Essential for human interaction with the environment, performing daily tasks, and engaging in recreational or athletic activities.
Fundamental Movement Skills (FMS)
- Basic movements that are building blocks for complex skills in various physical activities and sports.
- Developed during early childhood.
- Essential for physical, cognitive, and social development.
- Categorized into locomotor, non-locomotor, and manipulative skills.
Categories of FMS
- Locomotor Skills: Involve moving from one place to another (walking, running, jumping).
- Non-locomotor Skills: Involve movements without changing location (balancing, twisting, bending, stretching)
- Manipulative Skills: Involve handling and controlling objects (throwing, catching, kicking, striking)
Planes of Movement
- Sagittal Plane: Divides the body into left and right halves (forward/backward movement).
- Frontal (Coronal) Plane: Divides the body into front and back halves (side-to-side movement).
- Transverse Plane: Divides the body into top and bottom halves (rotational movement).
Anatomical Movement Terms
- Flexion: Decreasing angle between two body parts.
- Extension: Increasing angle between two body parts.
- Hyperextension: Extension beyond the normal range.
- Abduction: Moving a limb away from the midline of the body.
- Adduction: Moving a limb towards the midline of the body.
- Internal (medial) Rotation: Rotating a limb towards the midline of the body.
- External (lateral) Rotation: Rotating a limb away from the midline of the body.
- Circumduction: Combining flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction for a circular movement.
- Pronation: Turning the palm downward (forearm or foot)
- Supination: Turning the palm upward (forearm or foot)
- Dorsiflexion: Moving the foot upward towards the shin (e.g., flexing ankle).
- Plantarflexion: Moving the foot downward away from the shin.
- Inversion: Turning the sole of the foot inwards.
- Eversion: Turning the sole of the foot outwards.
- Elevation: Raising a body part.
- Depression: Lowering a body part.
- Protraction: Moving a body part forward.
- Retraction: Moving a body part backward.
Skeletal and Muscular System
- The skeletal system supports, protects, and facilitates movement.
- Consists of bones, cartilages, joints, and ligaments.
- Types of bones include long, short, flat, irregular, and sesamoid.
- The muscular system generates force for movement through contractions.
- Includes skeletal, smooth, and cardiac muscles.
Nutrition for Health and Wellness
- Nutrition is the process by which living organisms take in and use food.
- Essential for overall health, growth, and maintenance of bodily functions.
- Macronutrients (carbohydrates, proteins, fats) provide energy.
- Micronutrients (vitamins, minerals) are needed in smaller amounts for specific bodily functions.
- Sufficient water intake is crucial for all bodily functions.
Understanding and Improving Posture
- Posture refers to the position of the body while standing, sitting, or lying down.
- Good posture is important for overall health, reducing strain, and preventing injuries.
- Poor posture can lead to back pain, neck pain, and other musculoskeletal problems.
- Various exercises and activities can help improve posture.
