  2. Open kinetic chain exercises - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_kinetic_chain_exercises

    Open chain exercises are postulated to be advantageous in rehabilitation settings because they can be easily manipulated to selectively target specific muscles, or specific heads of certain muscles, more effectively than their closed chain counterparts, at different phases of contraction.

  4. Closed kinetic chain exercises - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed_kinetic_chain_exercises

    Closed chain exercises are often compound movements, that generally incur compressive forces, while open-chain exercises are often isolation movements that promote more shearing forces. [1] CKC exercises involve more than one muscle group and joint simultaneously rather than concentrating solely on one, as many OKC exercises do (single-joint ...

  7. Isometric exercise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isometric_exercise

    An isometric exercise is an exercise involving the static contraction of a muscle without any visible movement in the angle of the joint. The term "isometric" combines the Greek words isos (equal) and -metria (measuring), meaning that in these exercises the length of the muscle and the angle of the joint do not change, though contraction ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pull-down_(exercise)

    Cable pull-down exercise to the front with a medium-width overhand (pronated) grip. The pull-down exercise is a strength training exercise designed to develop the latissimus dorsi muscle. It performs the functions of downward rotation and depression of the scapulae combined with adduction and extension of the shoulder joint.

  9. Kinematic chain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinematic_chain

    An example is the simple open chain formed by links connected in series, like the usual chain, which is the kinematic model for a typical robot manipulator. [ 2 ] Mathematical models of the connections, or joints, between two links are termed kinematic pairs .
