What is the Core?
The core is the center of our body and it functions to stabilize the
trunk while the arms and legs move during functional movements.
When we view it this way, we see that the core actually includes:
• Muscles that stabilize the
hips.
• The system of muscles that make
up the torso (on the front, the sides,
and the back of the body).
• Muscles that stabilize the
shoulders.
What is the Core?
Why should I strengthen my core?

• Respiratory conditions.
• Developmental problems.
POSTURAL EXAMINATION
LATERAL
VIEWS
POSTERIOR
VIEWS
ANTERIOR &
POSTERIOR
VIEWS
The assessment of posture is in standing
position. The whole posture is assessed from
head to toes in different views.
LATERAL
VIEWS
The examiner should first determine the patients
body type. There are 3 body types:
Good Posture and Body Alignment
Good posture & better body alignment
Perform postural correction exercises several times
daily to attain and maintain better body alignment
1
2 You can combine 2-3 exercises at one time
3
Practice exercises anytime, anywhere, e.g. standing in
line at the supermarket, after brushing your teeth or
combing your hair, while talking on the telephone.
4
Use good posture when both seated and standing
(reading, driving, waiting in line, etc.)
BODY SHAPE AND SPATIAL
AWARENESS
THE THREE SOMATOTYPES
•Body type or somatotype, refers to the idea
that there are three generalized body
compositions that people are predetermined
to have. The concept was theorized by Dr. W.
H. Sheldon back in the early 1940s, naming
the three somatotypes endomorph,
mesomorph, and ectomorph.
ENDOMORPH
They usually have broad shoulders, narrow hips and shorter
limbs. While they have larger muscle mass, they also have a
higher fat percentage because they are predisposed to storing fat
rather than building muscles.
They store excess weight in their thighs, buttocks and hips giving
them a pear-shaped appearance. The best way for an endomorph
to lose weight is through a combination of healthy eating and
regular exercise.
MESOMORPH
• This body type is generally considered the ideal body
type. Individuals usually look lighter and have a more
rectangular bone structure, longer limbs, thinner bones
and a flatter ribcage. A mesomorph has a natural
tendency to stay fit and achieve muscle mass very
easily.
• They have more muscle than fat on their bodies and are
not overweight or underweight.
ECTOMORPH
• This body type is thin, usually tall, and lanky. Individuals
with a sturdy, rounder bone structure have wider hips,
stocky limbs and barrel-shaped rib cages.
• They struggle to gain weight no matter how many carbs
or how much fat they eat.
• They usually have a lean build with long limbs and small
muscles.
• To gain weight naturally, they must load up on carbs and
foods full of calories.
• Fashion models and basketball players fit this category.
TYPES OF BODY
MOVEMENTS
FLEXION AND EXTENSION
• Flexion- refers to a movement that
decreases the angle between two body parts.
• Extension- refers to a movement that
increases the angle between two body parts.
ABDUCTION AND ADDUCTION
• Abduction- is a movement away
from the midline- just as abducting
someone is to take them away.
• Adduction- is a movement towards
the midline.
MEDIAL AND LATERAL
• Medial rotation- is a rotational movement
towards the midline. It is sometimes referred
to as internal rotation.
• Lateral rotation- is a rotating movement
away from the midline.
ELEVATION AND DEPRESSION
• Elevation- refers to movement in a
superior direction (e.g. shoulder
shrug)
• Depression- refers to movement in an
inferior direction.
SUPINATION AND PRONATION
• Supination- this is easily confused with
medial and lateral rotation, but the
differences is subtle. With your hand resting
on a table in front of you, and keeping your
shoulder and elbow still, turn your hand onto
its back, palm up. This is the supine position
SUPINATION AND PRONATION
• Pronation- Keeping your elbow
and shoulder still, flip your hand
onto its front, palm down. This is
the prone position
DORSIFLEXION & PLANTAR
FLEXION
• Dorsiflexion- refers to flexion at the
ankle, so that the floor prints more
superiorly.
• Plantar flexion- refers extension at the
ankle, so that the foot points inferiorly.
INVERSION AND EVERSION
• Inversion- involves the movement of
the sole towards the median plane.
• Eversion- involves the movement of
the sole away from the median plane.
OPPOSITION AND
REPOSITION
• Opposition- brings the thumb and little
finger together.
• Reposition- is a movement that moves
the thumb away from each other.
PROTRACTION &
RETRACTION
• Protraction- describes the anterolateral movement of
the scapula on the thoracic wall that allows the
shoulder to move anteriorly.
• Retraction- refers to posteromedial movement of the
scapula on the thoracic wall, which causes the shoulder
region to move posteriorly.
ROTATION & CIRCUMDUCTION
• Rotation is when a limb moves around its
long axis, turning like a screw.
• Circumduction is when you move an area
of the body in a circle through the
combination of different anatomical
movements.
IPSILATERAL &
CONTRALATERAL
IPSILATERAL CONTRALATERAL
• Ipsilateral- on the same side of the body;
the right arm and the right leg are
ipsilateral.
• Contralateral- on the opposite side of the
body; the right arm and the left leg are
contralateral.
REGRESSION-PROGRESSION
REGRESSION
PROGRESSION
-an approach to decrease the demand of an
exercise or movement.
-does the opposite by increasing the demand
incrementally through minor changes.
REGRESSION
5 VARIABLE THAT INFLUENCE MICRO
CHANGES
Adjusting load can be
done across most
modalities.
INTENSITY/LOAD
RANGE
HEIGHT
SPEED
BODY POSITION
Controlling range of motion is
the easiest change to be
made when needed during a
working exercise set.
The context generally
is relative to the
height from the floor.
Having a client slow the
speed of the implement
down puts the muscle under
tension for a longer period of
time
It’s just a matter of changing
position as it relates to gravity
or
direction of resistance, or both.
EXAMPLES OF BASIC MOVEMENTS THAT ARE
REGRESSED OR PROGRESSED
Regressions: Hands on a
bench
or knees on the floor
Progression: Elevate
feet onto 6 inch box
HIP
EXTENSION
STANDING
SCAPTION
PUSH UP
Regression: Stand more
upright
Progression: Greater
flexion at the hip
Regression: Assuming the normal
position.
Progression: Increase distance
between hands and knees (move
toward push-up position)
FUNDAMENTAL MOVEMENT
SKILLS
Non-locomotor or stabilization
skills
- are controlled bodily
movements that are performed
from a relatively stable base of
support.
QUALITIES OF
MOVEMENT
32
•Movements encompass various qualities that
contribute to overall fitness, skill
development, and performance. These
qualities are often targeted through specific
exercises, drills, and activities designed to
improve overall physical fitness, enhance
performance, and reduce the risk of injury.
Varied training routines incorporating these
qualities help in achieving a well-rounded
level of fitness and athleticism.
33
•Flexibility - the ability to move joints
through a full range of motion. It's
crucial for injury prevention and optimal
performance in various activities.
•Strength - the capacity of muscles to
exert force against resistance. It's
essential for overall body function,
stability, and athletic performance.
34
•Endurance - the ability to sustain physical
activity over an extended period. It can be
cardiovascular endurance (related to the
heart and lungs) or muscular endurance
(ability of muscles to perform repetitive
contractions).
•Balance - the ability to maintain equilibrium
while stationary or moving. It's crucial for
stability and coordination in different
activities and sports.
35
•Coordination - the integration of multiple
senses and body parts to execute
movements smoothly and efficiently. It
involves timing, rhythm, and control.
•Agility - the ability to change direction
quickly and efficiently while maintaining
control and balance. It's vital in sports
requiring rapid movements and quick
changes in direction.
36
•Speed - the rate at which a person can
move or cover a distance in a specific
amount of time. Speed is essential in
many sports and activities.
•Power - the ability to exert maximum
force in the shortest time possible. It
combines strength and speed and is
crucial for explosive movements like
jumping or throwing.
37
•Accuracy - The precision and
control in executing
movements or actions. It's
important in various sports and
activities where precision is
required.

Editor's Notes

  • #8: Distribute weight bearing forces throughout the skeleton more correctly Stimulate the growth and maintenance of stronger, healthier, more dense bones Reduce the risk of fracture, other injury or back pain Think of your body as a whole unit, extending from the bottom of your feet to the top of your head All parts of the body are inter-connected and need to be in good anatomical alignment for better health
