Which of the following statements is correct about whathappens during flexion?a. The angle between bones is increased.b. The angle between bones is decreased.c. The bone moves away from the body.d. The bone moves toward the center of the body.
What joints, in particular, occur in these planes and axis' during these ranges of motion?
Shoulder Flexion (plane: sagittal, axis: frontal)
Shoulder Extension (plane: sagittal, axis: frontal)
Shoulder abduction (plane: frontal, axis: sagittal)
Shoulder Horizontal Abduction (plane: transverse, axis: vertical)
An isometric exercise is one in which the joint angle does not change during the application of muscle force. For instance, you can join your hands together, pushing down with one hand and pushing up with the other. In each arm, the muscles that provide the force are connected to the bones of the arm by tendons. If you increase the forces but keep the angles the same, the muscles will still contract. Explain how this is possible.
