    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.
