Human Movement System

Is comprised of the following three interwoven systems that allow our bodies to move: nervous, muscular, and skeletal systems

Range of Motion (ROM)

Is the amount of movement produced by one or more joints

Examples of Frontal Plane

Jumping jacks, overhead press, lateral raises, and windmills

Efferent neuron

Motor neurons that send a message for muscles to contract

Abduction

Movement away from the midline of the body, usually in the frontal plane

extension

Movement involving an increase in joint angle

Inversion

Movement of the foot which causes the sole of the foot to face inwards

Eversion

Movement of the foot which causes the sole of the foot to face outwards

Hyperextension

Movement that extends the angle of a joint greater than normal

Adduction

Movement toward the midline of the body, usually in the frontal plane

Example of second-class lever

Moving a wheelbarrow

afferent neuron

Nerve impulses that move toward the spinal cord and brain from the periphery of the body and are sensory in nature

Multiplanar movements

Occur in more than one plane of motion

closed chain movement

Occur when distal segments are fixed in place

open chain movements

Occur when the distal segment (hand or foot) moves in space.

Altered neuromuscular efficiency

Occurs when the kinetic chain is not performing optimally to control the body in all three planes of motion.

Sympathetic Nervous System (SNS)

Part of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) that activates what is often termed the fight or flight response

Parasympathetic nervous system(PNS)

Part of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) that stimulates rest and digestion physiological processes

Examples of closed chain movements

Push-up, pull-ups, squats, deadlifts, and lunges

Example of anterior-posterior axis movement

Raising an arm laterally

joint receptors

Receptors in and around a joint that respond to pressure, acceleration, and deceleration of the joint.

Motor output

Response to the stimuli that activates movement in organs or muscles

Rotation

Right or left twist in the transverse plane, usually used to describe neck & trunk movement

Mechanoreceptors

Sensory receptors responsible for sensing distortion in body tissues.

Example of a movement around a longitudinal axis

Spinal rotation with twisting of the trunk

Anatomic position

Standard posture wherein the body stands upright with the arms beside the trunk, the palms face forward, and the head faces forward.

Medial-lateral axis

Straight line that cuts through the body laterally side to side. In the Sagittal plane, rotation happens around this axis

Quantitative analysis

Taking physical measurements and making mathematical computations to reach a conclusion

Intermuscular Coordination

The ability of the neuromuscular system to allow all muscles to work together with proper activation and timing

Functional efficiency

The ability of the neuromuscular system to perform functional tasks with the least amount of energy, decreasing stress on the body's structure.

Proprioception

The cumulative sensory input to the central nervous system from all mechanoreceptors that sense body position and limb movement.

Central Nervous System (CNS)

The division of the nervous system comprising the brain and the spinal cord. Its primary function is to coordinate the activities of all parts of the body

Third-class lever

The fulcrum is toward the end of one side (either side). Both the applied force and the resistance are on the same side with the applied force closer to the fulcrum.

Second-class lever

The fulcrum is toward the end of one side (either side). Both the applied force and the resistance are on the same side with the resistance closer to the fulcrum (pivot point)

Circumduction

a compound circular movement involving flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction, circumscribing a cone shape

plantar flexion

Dorsiflexion

a movement of the ankle joint that points the foot up towards the leg

Three main parts of the neuron

frontal plane

divides the body into anterior and posterior (front / back) portions. Vertical and lateral movements occur in this plane (abduction, adduction)
