The exercise routine I will be using are the Clean‚ 400 meter sprint‚ and 3000 meter rower. The three pathways the body uses for energy are the ATP/CP‚ glycolytic‚ and the oxidative pathways. The ATP/CP pathway is anaerobic and only lasts for about 3 to 10 seconds of full muscular movement. The Clean is the exercise that utilizes this pathway directly. The Clean is a ballistic movement requiring explosive strength. All exercises start at the ATP/CP pathway‚ then due to length or intensity the

Posture where one stands on his/ her tiptoes or gas pedal of a vehicle is pushed‚ plantar flexion takes place. Through plantar flexion‚ ankle muscles and calf are relaxed so that they can properly work. The term “Plantar Flexion” is used to describe the movement of toe in

happens without our even having to think about it. On the other hand‚ voluntary responses occur when we have to think to react. It is possible to stop a reflex reaction‚ but it would take a lot of voluntary control. A good example of a reflex is the “knee-jerk” response the doctor tests during a physical examination. In a healthy person‚ this stretch reflex maintains posture and allows our muscles to hold up our body. Doctors can check this reflex by tapping on the tendon just below the kneecap. This

Question 1 Skeletal System The skeletal system is a strong yet light‚ flexible living framework that supports the body‚ protects delicate internal organs and makes movement possible. In addition‚ our bones store minerals while red bone marrow produces blood cells. Support The skeleton provides a frame that shapes the body and holds it up. Within the skeleton different characteristics of support can be identified. As the body’s main axis‚ the backbone provides support to the trunk with its upper

Week one written assignment for Kinesiology Bronwyn Oihus Abstract As humans our bodies are made up of several types of tissues‚ organs‚ bones muscles and nerves. I am going to talk about the joints of the skeletal system. The skeletal system gives us our shape and protects the inner structures of our bodies. In this system there are areas where 2 or more bones are held together in one of three ways. These are called joints and the bones and movement of the bones classifies the type of joint
