Planes of Motion
Name the 3 planes of motion & how is the body split
Sagittal (left & right)
Frontal (front & back)
Transverse (upper & lower)
Name the 3 axes of rotation and describe the direction of the "pin"
Anteroposterior (Front-Back)
Mediolateral (Side-Side)
Longitudinal/Vertical (Up-Down)
What joint action is occuring when the knee bends to bring your foot closer to your hips?
knee flexion
which muscle is responsible for elbow extension?
triceps brachii
Name the 3 contraction types and explain how the muscle length changes during each
Isometric - muscle length does not change
Concentric - muscle length shortens
Eccentric - muscle length increases
Correctly list and demonstrate the primary joint action that occurs in the frontal plane
Hip & Shoulder Adduction/Abduction
Correctly pair the 3 axes of rotation with the associated plane of motion
Anteroposterior (Frontal)
Mediolateral (Sagittal)
Longitudinal/Vertical (Transverse)
What joint action is occurring when the arm raises upward & to the side (away from the midline) of the body?
shoulder adduction
+50 if you can identify which muscle group is primarily responsible for this joint action; +50 if you can identify which portion of the muscle group
which muscle is responsible for hip adduction?
What type of contraction is the biceps brachii performing to flex the elbow?
concentric
Correctly identify the plane of motion for these movements: lunge, jumping jack, cable rotation
Lunge - Sagittal
Jumping Jack - Frontal
Cable Rotation - Transverse
Correctly demonstrate and identify which axis of rotation shoulder flexion, extension, & hyperextension occur in?
Mediolateral Axis of Rotation
Correctly demonstrate and identify the joint action occurring in the shoulder and elbow during a push-up
Down: elbow flexion & shoulder horizontal abduction
Up: elbow extension & shoulder horizontal adduction

Anterior: Quadriceps, adductor longus, tibialis anterior
Posterior: Glutes, hamstrings, calves
+100 for correct ID of hamstring muscle names
+50 for correct ID of calf muscle names
During the lowering phase of a squat, what types of contractions are occurring (and which muscles) to control/produce joint actions at the ankle, knee, and hip?
