absent; additional heads may arise from the ischial tuberosity‚ the linea aspera‚ the medial supracondylar ridge of the femur‚ or from various other parts. A slip may pass to the gastrocnemius. Action Both heads of the biceps femoris perform knee flexion. Since the long head originates in the pelvis it is also involved in hip extension. The long head of the biceps

Although human legs can have a wide range of movement and locomotion pattern but when people travel on foot‚ in most cases they use walk or run. There are many items effect on this selection like the

prime mover for shoulder flexion is the latissimus dorsi. D.) One antagonist for shoulder flexion is the deltoid. E.) The muscles between the ribs are called intercostal muscles. Intercostal muscles help to form and move the chest wall‚ by expanding and shrinking the size of the chest cavity when you breathe. Exercise 3: A.) Three agonist muscles that flex the elbow are the biceps brachii‚ brachialis‚ and the brachioradialis. B.) One antagonist for elbow flexion is the pronator teres.

muscle movement and gave an example of each. I went into flexion at the elbow and discussed that the agonist is the main muscle mover‚ the antagonist does the opposite‚ and the synergist is the helper. However‚ if you think about it‚ we kind of still came up with the same answer. You discussed flexion and extension and how they are opposites. That is what I wrote except I said that the agonist‚ or the main muscle‚ is used for flexion‚ while the antagonist is used for extension. You noted that

of the squat are hip flexion‚ anterior pelvic rotation‚ knee flexion‚ dorsiflexion and cervical extension. During the lifting phase‚ knee extension occurs‚ the ankles return to the neutral position as well as the cervical spine and hips; all the muscles acting as agonists during the lifting action‚ act as antagonists during the lowering action. Every joint motion during a squat‚ in both the lowering and lifting‚ occurs in the sagittal plane on the frontal axis. Hip Flexion acts as a third class

the hip‚ the knee‚ and the ankle. Together the three joints allow optimum distance and proper stability for the jumper. The hip‚ which holds the femur and pelvis‚ allows the jumper to extend as his foot strikes the board. While keeping the knee in flexion‚ he pushes off into the cycling pattern. In the skip phase‚ the hip will remain in a flexed position as the trail leg goes into extension. When in the jump phase‚ the hip allows the leg to go from an extended position‚ to a partial flexed position

are: flexion‚ extension‚ abduction‚ adduction‚ circumduction‚ and rotation. The six primary movements‚ along with any other anatomical movement‚ occur within three planes of motion; frontal‚ sagittal‚ and transverse. Flexion is defined as decreasing the angle between two body segments or bones. Flexion exercises often occur with a pulling force action‚ such as in the seated leg curl when the heels of the feet are pulled toward the gluteus maximus. Another exercise which involves flexion is the
