Kinematic chains of a wide range of complexity are analyzed by equating the kinematics equations of serial chains that form loops within the kinematic chain. These equations are often called loop equations. The complexity (in terms of calculating the forward and inverse kinematics) of the chain is determined by the following factors:
A trainer breaks down open versus closed kinetic chain exercises and the 10 best kinetic chain exercises to build muscle.
The movement of a body, or link, is studied using geometry so the link is considered to be rigid. [1] The connections between links are modeled as providing ideal movement, pure rotation or sliding for example, and are called joints. A linkage modeled as a network of rigid links and ideal joints is called a kinematic chain.
Rigid bodies ("links") connected by kinematic pairs ("joints") are known as kinematic chains. Mechanisms and robots are examples of kinematic chains. The degree of freedom of a kinematic chain is computed from the number of links and the number and type of joints using the mobility formula.
Closed kinetic chain upper body exercises [ edit ] Push-ups and their derivatives (including handstand), pull-ups (or chin-ups ), Supine row and dips, concentrate on a co-contraction of the triceps , biceps , deltoids , pectorals , lats , abdominals and lower back for stabilization in various ratios depending upon angle and leverage.
Kinesiology (from Ancient Greek κίνησις (kínēsis) 'movement' and -λογία-logía 'study of') is the scientific study of human body movement. Kinesiology addresses physiological, anatomical, biomechanical, pathological, neuropsychological principles and mechanisms of movement.
The anterior chain, which comprises the antagonists of the posterior chain, refers to the group of skeletal muscles that lies on the front of the human body. This includes the biceps , the pectoralis major and pectoralis minor (chest) muscles, the abdominals , the obliques , the serratus anterior , and the quadriceps .
In classical mechanics, a kinematic pair is a connection between two physical objects that imposes constraints on their relative movement ().German engineer Franz Reuleaux introduced the kinematic pair as a new approach to the study of machines [1] that provided an advance over the notion of elements consisting of simple machines.
