Muscular Analysis of Trunk & Lower
Extremity Exercises
• Strength, endurance, & flexibility of the lower
extremity, trunk, & abdominal muscles are
very important in skillful physical performance
& body maintenance
• Whether the muscle is lengthening or
shortening during movement determines
contraction type
– Muscles may shorten or lengthen in the absence of
a contraction through passive movement caused by
other contracting muscles, momentum, gravity, or
external forces such as manual assistance
machines

Muscular Analysis of Trunk & Lower
Extremity Exercises
• Concentric contractions
– shortening contraction of muscles against
gravity or resistance
• Eccentric contraction
– muscle lengthens under tension to control
the joints moving with gravity or resistance

Muscular Analysis of Trunk & Lower
Extremity Exercises
• Quadriceps contracts eccentrically when
the body slowly lowers in a weightbearing movement through lower
extremity action
– functions as a decelerator to knee joint
flexion in weight-bearing movements by
contracting eccentrically to prevent too rapid
of a downward movement
• slow descent is eccentric & ascent from the
squatted position is concentric
Manual of

13-4
Muscular Analysis of Trunk & Lower
Extremity Exercises
• Quadriceps function in squatting
– descent at the same speed as gravity,
essentially under no muscular control, the
muscle lengthening would be passive
• movement & change in muscle length would be
caused by gravity, not by active muscular
contraction

13-5
Conditioning Considerations
• Overload principle
– Within appropriate parameters, a muscle or muscle
group increases in strength in direct proportion to
the overload placed on it
– The amount of overload applied varies significantly
based on several factors
• An untrained person beginning a strength
training program will make significant gains in
the amount of weight he/she is able to lift in the
first few weeks
• Mostly due to a refinement of neuromuscular
function, rather than an actual increase in
muscle tissue strength
Manual of
Structural Kinesiology

13-6
Conditioning Considerations
• Overload principle
• A well trained person will see relatively minor
improvements in the amount of weight that can
be lifted over a much longer period of time
– Amount & rate of progressive overload is extremely
variable and must be adjusted to match the specific
needs of the individual’s exercise objectives
– Overload is not always progressively increased
– In certain periods of conditioning, the overload
should actually be prescriptively reduced or
increased to improve the total results of the entire
program
Manual of
Structural Kinesiology
Muscular Analysis of Trunk & Lower Extremity Exercises
13-7
Conditioning Considerations
• Overload principle
– Overload may be modified by changing any
one or a combination of 3 different exercise
variables - frequency, intensity, or duration
– Increasing the speed of doing the exercise,
the number of repetitions, the weight, &
more bouts of exercise are all ways to
modify these variables in applying this
principle

13-8
Conditioning Considerations
SAID Principle
• Specific Adaptations to Imposed
Demands
– the body will gradually, over time, adapt
very specifically to the various stresses &
overloads to which it is subjected
• applicable in every form of muscle training, as
well as to the other systems of body
Manual of
Structural Kinesiology
Muscular Analysis of Trunk & Lower Extremity Exercises
13-9
Conditioning Considerations
SAID Principle
– Example: if an individual were to undergo several
weeks of strength training exercises for a particular
joint through a limited range of motion, the specific
muscles involved in performing the strengthening
exercises would improve primarily in the ability to
move against increased resistance through the
specific range of motion utilized
– Minimal strength gains beyond the range of motion
utilized in the training would occur usually
– Other physical fitness components such as
flexibility, cardiorespiratory endurance or muscular
endurance would be enhanced minimally, if any
Manual of
Structural Kinesiology
Muscular Analysis of Trunk & Lower Extremity Exercises
13-10
Conditioning Considerations
SAID Principle
– To achieve specific benefits, exercise programs
must be specifically designed for the desired
adaption
• Adaptation may be positive or negative,
depending on whether or not correct
techniques are used and stressed in
conditioning program design & administration
– Inappropriate or excessive demands placed on the
body in too short of a time span can result in injury
Manual of
Structural Kinesiology
Muscular Analysis of Trunk & Lower Extremity Exercises
13-11
Conditioning Considerations
SAID Principle
• Adaptation may be positive or negative
– If demands are too minimal or administered too
infrequently over too long a time period, less than
desired improvement will occur
• Conditioning programs & the exercises
included should be analyzed to determine if
they are using the specific muscles for which
they were intended in the correct manner
Manual of
Structural Kinesiology
Muscular Analysis of Trunk & Lower Extremity Exercises
13-12
Conditioning Considerations
Specificity
• Muscular strength, muscular endurance, &
flexibility are not general body characteristics
– They are specific to each body area & muscle group
• Specific needs of the individual must be
specifically addressed when designing an
exercise program
– Often it is necessary to analyze an individual's
exercise & skill technique to specifically design an
exercise program to meet his/her needs
Manual of
Structural Kinesiology
Muscular Analysis of Trunk & Lower Extremity Exercises
13-13
Conditioning Considerations
Specificity
• Addressing specific needs in designing an
exercise program
– Exercises for use in conditioning programs must be
analyzed to determine their appropriateness for the
individual's specific needs
– Exercise program goals should be determined
regarding specific areas of the body, preferred time
to physically peak, & physical fitness needs such as
strength, muscular endurance, flexibility,
cardiorespiratory endurance, body composition, etc.
Manual of
Structural Kinesiology
Muscular Analysis of Trunk & Lower Extremity Exercises
13-14
Conditioning Considerations
Specificity
• Addressing specific needs in designing an
exercise program
– After establishing goals a regimen incorporating the
overload variables of frequency, intensity, & duration
may be prescribed to include the entire body or
specific areas in a manner to address the
improvement of the preferred physical fitness
components
– Regular observation & follow-up exercise analysis is
necessary to ensure proper adherence to correct
technique

Muscular Development
• One does not necessarily develop adequate
muscular strength, endurance, & flexibility
through participation in sport activities
• One needs to develop muscular strength,
endurance, & flexibility in order to be able to
participate safely & effectively in sport activities
• Adequate muscular strength, endurance, &
flexibility of the entire body from head to toe
should be developed through correctly
employing the appropriate exercise principles
Manual of
Structural Kinesiology
Muscular Analysis of Trunk & Lower Extremity Exercises
13-16
Muscular Development
• Development should start at an early age &
continue throughout the school years
• Fitness tests results indicate there is need for
considerable improvement in this area
• Adequate muscular strength & endurance are
important in the adult years for the activities of
daily living, as well as job-related requirements
and recreational needs
• Many back pains and other physical ailments
could be avoided through proper maintenance
of the musculoskeletal system
Manual of
Structural Kinesiology

13-17
Free Weight-Training Exercises
• Exercise with weights is a commonly used
means of developing & maintaining muscular
strength in young people & adults
• When using free weights it is important to
ensure that one group of muscles is not
overdeveloped and another is underdeveloped
– Thorough knowledge of muscles being used is
essential

Sit-up, bent knee
• Participant lies on back, forearms crossed
and lying across chest, with knees flexed
90 degrees & feet about hip-width apart
• Hips & knees are flexed in this manner to
reduce hip flexor length, thereby reducing
their contribution to sit-up & allow more
emphasis on abdominals
• Participant curls up to a sitting position,
rotates trunk to right, touches left elbow to
right knee
• Returns to starting position
• Rotate to left on next repetition

Isometric Exercises
• An exercise technique in which there is
contraction of muscle groups with no
appreciable muscle shortening
– not as productive in terms of overall
strength gains as isotonics
– an effective way to build & maintain
muscular strength in a limited range of
motion
• Contractions should be held approximately 710 seconds for a training effect
