maximum loads
Compound yet irreducible Accurate Answer - A multi-joint movement
that creates a response greater than the sum of its parts
Core to extremity Accurate Answer - A relay of contraction from large
to small movers of the body
KEY POINTS: DEFINING FUNCTIONAL MOVEMENTS Accurate Answer -
1
The defining characteristic of functional movements is their ability to move
large loads over long distances, quickly.
2
"Large loads over long distances, quickly" contains the variables used in the
power formula: force x distance / time = average power.
3
Functional movements are therefore unique in their ability to produce power.
4
Force, distance, and time are easily recorded as the load lifted, repetitions
performed, and time taken to complete the task.
