1) Based on the 6 fitball stretches [pelvis Tilt, side to side, backbend, fwd bend, childs pose, and low lunge], write a paragraph about 3 fitball stretches. Reference the anatomical names of the muscles you are stretching, (according to the muscular chart) and how this will serve your daily needs e.g. workouts, posture, work duties, etc.

During a Physical Education class, you ask your students to perform a standing vertical jump. Identify the type of muscle contraction involved in the jump and describe the movement patterns of the concentric and eccentric phases. Outline the agonists, antagonists and synergist muscles, which contribute to maximum jump height. Identify the major lower body joints and joint movements, which contribute to the concentric phase of the jump.
A person aged 35 years came to you with complaint of tow-back pain. By occupation he is security guard with prolonged standing for 6-8 hours daly. On assessment, his lumbosacral angle in standing position was 65" and his lumber spine X-ray showed exaggeration of lumber curve. Manual muscle testing showed Gluteal muscles and lumber flexors were in Grade 4. 1. What would be the possible diagnosis? 2. Which muscle groups are more likely to get shortened due to this problem? 3. How would you treat the muscle which are shortened? 4. How would you treat the muscles which are weakened due to this problem?
analyze the muscles acting on the knee on the lowering phase and rising/standing phase of the squat. Please also identify if these muscles are working/contracting concentrically or eccentrically. (For example, the vastus lateralis is eccentrically contracting on the lowering phase and concentrically contracting on the rising phase) Lowering phase Muscles Concentric Eccentric Rising Phase Muscles Concentric Eccentric
