In this episode, host Rick Richey focuses on a topic from an email request asking details about exercises and their prime movers. This is by no means an exhaustive list of exercises, but it is to detail joint actions, planes of motion, prime movers, and synergists. It can get a bit heavy with the terminology, but stick with it and practice learning the language of human movement science. The exercises reviewed are:
- Squat
- Dead Lift
- Romanian Dead Lift (RDL)
- Chest Press
- Lat Pull Down
- Bicep Curl
- Situp
