• Select a physical activity (e.g,. a dance step, an exercise, a sports activity, etc.) and as the title of your Project. You may select any activity that has NOT been analyzed in another assignment (so NO baseball, crunches, pull ups, push ups, etc). Also, select an activity that involves at least 3 phases, such as prep/approach, execution, follow thru/landing/recovery. The phase names vary with the activity, so these are ONLY suggestions. Do not use these if they are not appropriate for your activity. Google the activity to see what phases it may have. Analyze an activity that uses the entire body and includes the shoulder, elbow, hip, and knee joints, as these 4 joints are required for the ROM measurements. Bench press, squats and lunges are too simple because they have only 2 phases (down and up) and use only the upper OR lower body joints. Please ask your instructor for clarification, if needed.
• Film yourself or someone else (you may use YouTube) performing this physical activity. If you use YouTube, indicate the segment to view that you use for your analysis.
• Use your cell phone or a camera to shoot high-speed sequential photos of movements. Show at least 4-6 separate movements that demonstrate different phases. If you use YouTube, select the still motions you will use as the phases of the activity that you will analyze. Make sure to LABEL/identify the phases in each photo that will correspond to your discussion of the phases. Indicate the time segments from the video that show the phases in your photos.
• Discuss and analyze the movements in each phase. Explain or list the movements observed and the associated joints and joint actions. Make sure to refer to the appropriate photos.
• Select the joints associated with the activity's moves in the sequential photos and construct as many tables as needed to show ALL PHASES. In other words, if the activity has 3 phases, then you must create three tables. Refer to Anatomical Analysis Tables used in Chs.15-16. (also see below)
• Measure and record the Range of Motion (ROM) (in degrees, not joint actions....e.g., 90 degrees, NOT flexion) of the following joints only (refer to p34 in text). You may construct a ROM table, include ROM in Anatomical Analysis table (see below), or simply record the angles that each joint moves in each phase.

1. Knees
2. Hip
3. Elbow
4. Shoulder

• Submit IN THIS ORDER, video (with time segment if using YouTube)(10pts), labeled sequential photos (30pts), detailed discussion of joints and their actions (40pts), and tables (Anatomical Analyses (80) and ROM (20) tables) (80 + 20 = 100pts).
• Alternative submission: video, photo of Phase 1 with discussion and Table; photo of Phase 2 with discussion and Table, etc.

Example of a TABLE which includes ROM:

Joint	Joint Action	Segment moved	Force of movement	Muscles active/Prime movers	Contraction type	Range of Motion (ROM)

That's what I do

Based on the video reference I provided, the Squat Jump is a plyometric exercise that involves the whole body, including the shoulder, elbow, hip, and knee joints. It has three phases:the prep phase, jump phase, and landing phase. The video showed the breakdown of steps that are needed to be done in doing Burpee. Measures include Jumping, Wide knees for a substantial jump then landing softly into a squat. Squat position, squat with your head in line with your tailbone, and chest up; Place your hands down with your knees wider than your elbows. Push-up position, keep a flat back, and jump your feet back so that you land into a plank; Plank with your shoulders over your wrists, and a straight line from your head to heels. Lower your plank into a push-up keeping a straight line from your head to your heels. Finally, the return to squat position, and jump your knees to the outsides of your elbows.

Body parts that are involved in doing Burpee include the upper and lower legs which are quads, hamstrings, and calves. Butt which is the hip flexors and glutes. Lower and upper back which erector spinae and latissimus. And, Upper body which chest and shoulders. Joints involved during Burpee include shoulder Joint, elbow Joint, hip Joint and knee Joint.

Step by step in burpee:

1. Phase 1 -Prep Phase:In this phase, the starting position is standing upright with feet shoulder-width apart, arms extended in front of the body. The knees are slightly bent, and the hips are flexed. This position loads the muscles of the lower body, such as the quadriceps, hamstrings, and glutes, preparing them for the jump. The hip and knee joints are in flexion, and the shoulder and elbow joints are in extension.2. In the squat position, the knees and hips are flexing and the ankle is moving into dorsi flexion. The spine is also flexing to a minor degree. This movement requires the eccentric contraction of the quadriceps, hamstrings, and gluteus maximus. The muscles of the back are working to prevent excessive flexion of the spine. Think about holding the chest high. Eccentric means that the muscles are contracting and lengthening at the same time. The muscles are producing force to control the rate of descent against the effects of gravity. Phase 2- Jump Phase:This phase starts with an explosive extension of the hips, knees, and ankles, propelling the body upward. The arms are also extended overhead during the jump, which assists in the upward movement. The hip and knee joints move from flexion to extension, and the ankle joint goes from plantar flexion to dorsiflexion. The shoulder and elbow joints move from extension to flexion. The prime movers for this phase are the quadriceps, glutes, and calves. Phase 3- Landing Phase: In this phase, the body lands softly on the balls of the feet with the knees slightly bent, and the hips flexed. The arms are extended in front of the body to help with balance. The hip and knee joints move from extension to flexion, and the ankle joint moves from dorsiflexion to plantar flexion. The shoulder and elbow joints move from flexion to extension. The muscles that control this phase are the quadriceps, hamstrings, and gastrocnemius.
2. Phase 1 - Prep-phase:

Joint	Joint Action	Segment moved	Force of movement	Muscles active/Prime movers	Contraction type	Range of Motion (ROM)
Hip	Flexion	Thigh	Concentric	Gluteus, Hamstring	Isotonic	120 degrees
Shoulder	Extension	Arm	Eccentric	Deltoid	Isotonic	70 to 90 degrees
Elbow	Extension	Forearm	Eccentric	Triceps	Isotonic	75 to 120 degrees
Knee	Flexion	Lower leg	Concentric	Quadriceps	Isotonic	0 to 40 degrees

1. Phase 2 - Jump-phase:

Joint	Joint Action	Segment moved	Force of movement	Muscles active/Prime movers	Contraction type	Range of Motion (ROM)
Hip	Extension	Femur	Muscular	Gluteus	Concentric	120 degrees
Shoulder	Flexion	Humerus	Muscular	Deltoid	Concentric	70 to 90 degrees
Elbow	Flexion	Forearm	Muscular	Biceps	Concentric	75 to 120 degrees
Knee	Extension	Femur	Muscular	Quadriceps, Hamstring	Concentric	0 to 40 degrees

1. Phase 3 - Landing-phase:

Joint	Joint Action	Segment moved	Force of movement	Muscles active/Prime movers	Contraction type	Range of Motion (ROM)
Hip	Flexion	Femur	Gravity	Gluteus, Hamstring	Eccentric	120 degrees
Shoulder	Extension	Humerus	Gravity	Deltoid	Eccentric	70 to 90 degrees
Elbow	Extension	Forearm	Gravity	Triceps	Eccentric	75 to 120 degrees
Knee	Flexion	Femur	Gravity	Quadriceps, Hamstring	Eccentric	0 to 40 degrees

That's the comment from teacher: Very confusing presentation. There are at least 4 phases for the Burpee. 1- jump 2-squat 3- plank/pushup 4- squat You could have chosen an easier exercise to analyze. The phases in the tables do not analyze the Burpee. There is no "prep" phase. As you write it is a JUMP phase. The "landing" phase is the SQUAT. The "follow thru" does not exist. Need a "push-up" phase and another "squat" phase, which could be called the "recovery" phase. So I am stumped as how to grade your presentation. Are you analyzing the JUMP SQUAT or the BURPEE??
