lifting questions in general ask DC_weih

Okay, I'll bite. Here are some questions for you:

1. In what plane of movement does flexion and extension occur? (Comment: This is a very basic question. Anyone with even a limited knowledge of anatomy should be able to answer it.)



2. What are the names of all of the major abdominal muscles? (hint, there are 4).



3. What is the ultimate source of energy for muscle contraction?



4. Plantar flexion occurs at what joint?



Glad to finally have someone in here who knows a lot!
 
heh heh!

1.frontal/lateral
2. External oblique, internal oblique, transverse Abdominus and rectus abdominus.
3.glucose
4.ankle
 
Now Xander, you weren't supposed to help him!

BTW, you missed 1 and 3. The second question had a little trick in it that you got so props to you for that. Now let's see if DC can answer the other two you missed!
 
Abduction, Adduction, Inversion, Eversion, Lateral Flexion, Radial and Ulnar Deviation for #1 and #3 i will have to say is protine and extention occurs in your joints and flexion can occure in your joints in the body and now lets talk lifting and not fitness and jpfitness how old are you? im 16
 
1. The sagittal plane. The sagittal plane divides the body in right and left halves. For example, reaching straight out in front of the body requires flexion of your shoulder. Kicking a ball requires flexion of the hip.

2. Rectus abdominis (the 6-pack muscles), external oblique, internal oblique, and transversus abdominis. Most trainers don’t know about the transversus abdominis as it is rarely trained independently of the other abdominal muscles.

3. ATP... Bonus if you can spell it out: adenosine triphosphate.
The answer is not fat or sugar (carbohydrate) or protein. These are substrates for enzymes that generate ATP via specific cellular processes.

4.The ankle. Standing on your toes requires plantar flexion.
 
thats awsome i love lifting and im on a 5day workd out plan for about a month now and im getting big fast and i love it
 
i.e saying to someone to plantar flex their foot while on leg extension....

There are some out there that if you tell them it involves standing on their toes they won't have a clue!

JP..."Rectus abdominis (the 6-pack muscles)"..But is it actually a 6 pack?....

I am referring to them by their commonly known name.
