Motion coupling

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Under movement coupling understands Movement connecting multiple part body movements into an ordered sequence of movements. The coupling of movements creates a "link chain" of individual movements and partial impulses, the coordination and fine-tuning of which leads to dynamization and optimization of the overall movement. The creation of an optimal quality of movement presupposes an appropriate interaction of the partial body movements and impulses in the form of spatial, temporal and dynamic coordination. The initial impulse can come from the head (head control), the trunk or the extremities.

The coupling of movements is an essential element in realizing a well-coordinated movement.

Systematization

Depending on the perspective of the observer, there is a different classification and characterization:

From the factual aspect of movement , the movement coupling is referred to as a "movement property " or a "movement feature ". As a structural characteristic, it is combined with other features such as movement precision, movement constancy or movement rhythm.

Seen from the subject aspect of the moving person, the coupling ability is counted among the "movement abilities" . It then stands in a row with spatial orientation , anticipation or the ability to control movement and, as such, represents an essential component for designing successful movement coordination.

In kinetics, a distinction is also made between the coupling of movements

  • a morphological approach (recording the holistic appearance)
  • a functional approach (analysis of information processing on the physiological process level) and
  • a biomechanical approach (interaction between the central nervous system, muscles, joint apparatus)

Fields of application

The coupling of movements plays an important role in movement learning (methodology, training), in assessing the quality of a movement ( movement analysis ) and in the creation of tests to record movement coordination (experimental procedures).

Examples

In the shot put (O'Brien technique), impulses are transmitted from the foot via leg extension, hip and torso rotation and arm extension until the hand finally releases the ball in the push-off phase with the built-up impulse chain. This whole-body swing build-up, when it takes place in a seamless coupling of movements and harmonious transfer of movement, is much more dynamic and effective than if the shot put were only made with arm strength.

In a screw somersault , the rotation and control impulses for the movements around the transverse and longitudinal axis of the body emanate from the head and the extremities and are transferred from there to the trunk.
