Description

I need a power point presentation that analyzes a bicep curl. In analyzing the activity you will need to identify which bones, joints and muscles are involved in the activity. As a result of performing the activity, you will need to categorize the joints involved and what movements (ie flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, ect) are occurring and which plane/axis in which the movement is occurring. You will also be required to identify the muscles involved in performing the movement, along with the origin, insertion, and innervating nerve for each muscle..... the presentation needs to be about 3-5 mins long, no longer than 8 mins. Thank you!
