STUDENT PROJECT
This project is geared toward learning and reviewing the
muscles of the body as well as practicing or describing the correct safety
technique used in strength training. A
Poster, Diagram, Report, Demonstration, Video Analysis must meet the following
criteria, or other teacher approved activities.
1.
The student will analyze five (5) different strength-training exercises
from the list at the bottom of the page. (Ex. is abbreviated).
2. 1 exercise must work a leg muscle
1 exercise must work an arm muscle
1 exercise must work the abdominal
muscles
1 exercise must work the torso (cannot
be abs.) (Ex. Bench Press)
1 exercise of choice (must be different
than the four above)
3. The student will define the major muscle
group worked
Ex. Bench Press =
Pectoralis Major.
4.
The student will define the minor muscle(s) group worked
Ex. Bench Press = Triceps.
5. The student will express the proper
technique or mechanics for each exercise.
Ex. Making sure that your upper arms travel directly out to the sides
(elbow out), slowly bend your arms and lower the weight straight downward until
it touches the plates. Push the weight
back up to the starting position, and repeat for the required number of
repetitions.
6.
The student will show an understanding of the safety precautions when
lifting, and partner spotting techniques when using free weights. Student will include the hazards and
consequences of improper lifting technique.
Ex. Major mistakes include
bouncing the weight off of the plates, arching your back while lifting the
weight, and dropping the elbows in the direction of the feet. Pain could occur if improper technique is
not used.
