Document Summary
Proximal segments located in front of the projectile, distal segments found behind the. All segments begin behind the projectile, pushing it in a specific direction. Is used to increase force or accuracy. Throw pattern: involves a sequential movement usually in the wheel-axle type movement projectile. Push pattern: involves a simultaneous movement usually in the lever type movement. Mass of projectile (increased mass = increased push pattern) Volume / size of projectile (increased size = increased push pattern) Shape / profile of projectile (increased aerodynamic = increased throw pattern) Open: a throw or kick where the end segment is free to move. Closed: a jump, push, or pull where the end segment is restrained. Throw-like patterns (review slide on segments a/b/c): goal is to achieve high end-point velocity. Proximal portions of the body move first (ex: when kicking, the trunk begins to rotate first) Distal parts lag behind (ex: when kicking, after the trunk rotates the legs will begin to extend)
