2. Movement away from midline






3. Both side






4. Underweight BMI






5. Lower






6. Refers to being thankful to the pleasures that your body provides






7. Occurs when force is produced as a muscle lengthens - increasing joint angles while movement is toward gravity ie lowing a weight with control






8. With oxygen






9. Upper






10. Underweight body fat % for men ages 20-29

12. Inferior movement at the scapula






13. The muscle's ability to exert maximal force- developed by 6-10 reps






14. Opposite trapezius and rhomboids






15. Produces force through a range of motion at a constant muscle tension and velocity






16. Away from the body's midline






17. How long stretches should be done for






18. Use the joint full range of motion while maintaining a soft bend in both elbows and knees to protect against hyperextension; the key to effectively working the muscle group desired






19. Movement towards midline

41. Decreasing joint angle ie foot towards shin






42. Primary muscle mover






43. Turning foot inward






44. Inferior movement at the scapula






45. The volume of air that can forcibly be ejected from the lungs in a single expiration
