MOVEMENT ANALYSISKey questions to answer 1. What bones are articulating? 2. At what type of joint is the movement taking place? 3. What type of movement is occurring at the joint? 4. In which plane and axis is the movement occurring? 5. What is the name and function of the muscle that is contracting? 6. How is the muscle contacting? 7. Which lever system is operating? The ONLY movements that you will need to know are1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. examples Leg action in running / sprinting- hip and knee _______________________ Leg action in squats- hip and knee _______________________ Leg action in kicking- hip and knee _______________________ Leg action in jumping- hip and knee _______________________ Arm / shoulder action in throwing- shoulder and elbow _______________________ Arm / shoulder action in racket strokes- shoulder and elbow_______________________ Arm action in press ups- shoulder and elbow 1.
