Homework II

The first column should list all the joints of the body (Cervical, Lumbar, Shoulder Girdle, Shoulder Joint, Elbow, Radioulnar, Wrist, Fingers, Hip, Knee, Ankle/Subtalar, Toes) while the first row should have the phases of movement (Stance phase, Preparatory phase, Movement phase, and Follow-through phase). In each box, list the movement occurring, muscles involved, and whether the contractions are isometric, concentric, or eccentric.
