Exercise Analysis- ISBN 0-9618161-63
The following question may guide you in analyzing and designing effective exercises:
1. What movements occur at each joint?
2. Is the movement slow or fast, against resistance or not
3. Is the motion occurring against gravity or in it's same direction?
4. What muscles are causing the joint movement?
5. Is the contraction concentric, eccentric or isometric?
6. Which muscles are movers and which are stabilizers?
7. Does the movement achieve the stated goal of the exercise?
8. Does the exercise train the primary function of the muscle?
9. Does the movement compromise the safety of other body parts?
10. How can the exercise be adapted to meet the specific needs of the client
(made more difficult or less difficult)?
