Abstract Cartwheel is a basic acrobatic movement that is first learned by any gymnast. A cartwheel is another elementary movement, generally taught fairly in any sequence of gymnastic instruction. (Hay, 1973) It develops flexibility, strength and stability of a gymnast. In doing a cartwheel, both arms and legs are extended going in a linear direction. There are four phases in a cartwheel, Preparatory phase, Lunge phase, Split phase and Recovery phase. We are comparing the movement of a formally trained gymnast and a dance performer without formal training.

Fast Pitching Case Study

Qualitative Movement Diagnosis of Fast Pitch Softball Kendra Amerson Selected Topics in PHED Overhand throwing has been documented as the principal cause of injury to pitchers. To achieve compressive force to through the ball during pitching, the force produced by the shoulders and elbow is equated to 80-120 percent of the pitchers body weight. Pressure and force exerted on the shoulder area leads to high velocities generation during throws and estimated to be at most 7 percent of the…
