What is kinematics?



Spatial and temporal characteristics
Qualitative or quantitative
Linear & angular motion
Why use kinematics?


Practical: Provides a standard for us in performing,
teaching, or evaluating a skill
Research: Once we describe, we can ask why?
Problem with kinematics?

Practical: Proper kinematics does not always mean
proper force application

4. Guidelines for Describing Motion of the
Human Body & Its Segments
1. Distinguish between motion
& position of joints &
segments.
A
B
2. Recognize that either
segment can rotate about a
joint.
3. Recognize that bones move
linearly as well as angularly.
4. Understand that movement
generally occurs in oblique planes
around oblique axes.
5. When observing motion,
look at the plane, down the
axis.
