Discuss the difference between chinning with the palms toward the face and chinning with the palms away from the face. Consider this muscularly and anatomically.

What are the agonist muscles in glenohumeral abduction? What plane/axis does this motion occur?

Why is it essential that both anterior and posterior muscles of the shoulder joint be properly developed? What are some activities or sports that would cause unequal development? equal development?

Due to the wide range of motion possible at the shoulder joint it is quite lax ligamentously and requires significant dynamic stability in all planes to prevent instability problems and injury. Properly developed muscles anteriorly and posteriorly increase stability of the joint. Any exercise that you do repeatedly may lead to an imbalance. Examples are throwing, bench press, push-ups. To prevent an imbalance, it is essential to work on different exercises to adequately address both the anterior and posterior muscles such as bench presses/prone rows, internal rotation exercises/external rotation exercises.

List which muscles are involved with "tennis elbow" and describe specifically how you would encourage someone to work on both strength and flexibility of these muscles.

Tennis elbow usually involves tendinopathy of the extensor digitorum longus near its origin on the lateral epicondyle. This can be strengthened by doing wrist extensions or reverse wrist curls. To do these the forearm should be supported on a table with hand off edge; palm should face downward. Using a weight or hammer, lower the hand as far as possible then curl wrist up as high as possible. To increase flexibility, you would stretch the wrist extensors by straightening the elbow completely. With the palm facing down, grasp the back of the hand and pull wrist down as far as possible.

Lifting a television set as you help your roommate move in requires appropriate lifting techniques and an effective angle of pull. Describe the angle of pull chosen at the elbow joint and why it is chosen as opposed to other angles.

The optimum angle of pull is at approximately 90 degrees of elbow flexion as this allows the turning force of the biceps brachii to be primarily working toward maintaining flexion. Angles substantially greater or less than this result in less turning force at the elbow, thereby making the lift more difficult.

Explain how the triceps brachii muscle acts a neutralizer

The triceps brachii acts a neutralizer when the biceps brachii is to be used to supinate the radioulnar joint. Because the biceps brachii is a multiarticular muscle (crosses more than 2 joints) and has actions at the elbow and radioulnar joint, another muscle must cancel out an unwanted or undesired movement. When the biceps brachii supinates, the triceps brachii neutralizes the action of elbow flexion because it is the antagonist muscle of the biceps brachii during elbow flexion.
