THREAD 2: GAIT
1) Watch this video carefully observing normal gait.

2) Post a short video of someone walking. This can be a video of you, your significant other, friend, or one of your kids. Make sure the person being filmed is barefoot & wearing shorts (If they are long shorts, ask them to roll the waistband up until we can see their knees).
Have them walk toward you from about 20 feet away. Then, have them walk away from you back to where they started. Ask them to do this 2-3 times, while you record the video. Make sure we can see the person’s entire body (head to feet on the ground).
3) Post the video and assess it, based on what you learned from viewing the video about normal gait.
Do you notice anything about the person’s gait right away?
Are there any gait deviations or abnormalities?
In what phase do they occur?
What might be a cause of the deviation/abnormality?
Add any other thoughts, comments, or questions you have.

======================================
THREAD 1: TRUNK
5823_F15_02.jpg
Perform the following two variations of sit-ups. Determine if the position of the hips makes a difference in performance of a sit-up and explain your answer. Sit up only until the scapula clears the table. Start with the arms at the side reaching forward as the sit-up is performed.
With hips and knees flexed so feet are close to buttocks
With legs extended
Perform trunk flexion (trunk curl) in supine position. Compare the range of trunk motion achieved with the range of motion achieved in a sit up.
Where does the additional ROM come from in the sit- up exercises as compared to the trunk flexion?
Which method, sit-up or trunk curl, is less likely to increase lumbar lordosis? Explain your answer.

Please read all three of the questions for comparison, but you you are only required to comment on one thread.
Discussion Guidelines
THREAD 2: PELVIC GIRDLE
5823_F17_125823_F17_13.jpg
While sitting on the low stool, you assume a posterior pelvic tilt and decrease the lumbar lordosis (flatten the lumbar spine). Sit on a low stool and catch a ball and throw it to hit a specific target.
What effect did the sitting position have on your ability to toss and catch a ball? Why?
When sitting on a high stool so that your feet only barely touch the floor, you assume an anterior pelvic tilt and increase the lumbar lordosis. Sit on a high stool and repeat throwing and catching the ball.
What effect did this sitting position have on your ability to toss and catch the ball? Why?
Repeat the throw while sitting on a stool that allows you to sit with your feet supported and your thighs parallel to the floor.
What effect did this sitting position have on your ability to toss and catch the ball? Why?
Please read all three positions, but you are only required to comment on one thread.
