Analyze all joints movements occurring throughout the entire body from the foot and ankle to the head and neck.
May 29th, 2022
The movement I selected is picking up a box and putting it on a shelf
- Movement Analysis
- Break the movement down into three key phases
- Describe three joint movements in each phase using anatomical terminology
- Must identify all movements that are occurring in three of the joints that are working in each phase and the plane of motion in which the movements occur.
- Must identify at least five muscles involved in completing the movement, identify their origin and insertion, and how each muscle is working during the joint movement (eccentrically, concentrically, or isometrically).
- Break the movement down into three key phases
- Identify a research article that discusses a dysfunction or dysfunctional pattern (i.e. knee collapse/valgus, upper cross syndrome, lower cross syndrome, etc…)
- Summarize the research article
- Write a conclusion as to how this dysfunction would affect the movement selected and analyzed (picking up a box and putting it on a shelf)
Example format:
Movement selected: picking up a box and putting it on a shelf
- Phase breakdown – phase 1: Bending over to pick up the box, phase 2: standing up tall with the box in hand, phase three lifting the box up onto the shelf
- Joint movement occurring in each joint described anatomically
- Description of the plane of motion the joint action is occurring
- Identify, in a chart or sentence form, five muscles that are involved in each joint movement as agonists or antagonists. list origin and insertion for each muscle and how they are working (eccentrically, concentrically, or isometrically)
- Article summary and thoughts on how the dysfunction could affect your movement (3-5 paragraphs)
- Follow APA format
- Use 2 academic resources
