PM1 - MOVEMENT COMPETENCY

Defined as the development of sufficient skill to assure successful performance in different physical activities.

It Whrequires the development of fundamental movement skills and the application of movement concepts and principles.

Movement Competency

What are the 5 fundamental movement patterns?

1. Push 4. Lunge

2. Pull 5. Hinge

3. Squat

It often involves moving an external object away from your body or pushing your body away from an object or surface, as in a push-up. Most descriptions of pushing as a fundamental movement pattern refer to the upper body only.

Push

It is the opposite of a push movement pattern: generally, you pull an object toward your body, or pull your body toward an object. Like pushing, pulling is typically used to describe the upper body only

Pull

It requires lowering your body weight by bending your ankles and knees. A ______ movement pattern is unique to the lower body compared to pushing and pulling.

Squat

This generally involves one leg extended or bent in front of the body while the other leg is extended or bent behind the body. This pattern includes any form of gait: walking, running, skipping, and so on. Like the squat pattern, the lunge pattern is specific to the lower body.

Lunge

This is also known as the “hip hinge pattern” describes any movement that involves flexion and extension of the hips. Ideally, the spine will be kept in a neutral position to prevent injury, maximize performance, or improve quality of life.

Hinge

What are the three stages of learning a skill?

Cognitive, Associative, Autonomic

This stage refers to understanding the basics of the skill in question

Cognitive

This stage refers to refining the skill by learning from your mistakes

Associative

This stage refers to performing the skill as though it is almost automatic

Autonomic

What are the 3 types of movement skills?

Stability. Locomotion, and Manipulation

It is a skill that involves the body balancing in one place or in one motion

Stability

A skill that involves body movement in any direction

Locomotion

A skill that includes throwing and catching skills related to striking with hands, feet or an implement.

Manipulation

What Movement Principle does this belong: Stability increases as the centre of gravity becomes lower, the base of support becomes larger, the line of gravity moves nearer to the centre of the base of support, and the mass becomes greater.

Principle 1

What Movement Principle does this belong: The production of maximum velocity requires the use of joints in order—from largest to smallest.

Principle 3

What Movement Principle does this belong: The production of maximum force requires the use of all the joints that can be used

Principle 2
