These module tackles about Movement Exercises composed of non-Locomotor

and Locomotor movements. Non-Locomotor Movements can be defined as
movements that occur in the body parts or using the whole body but do not cause the
body to travel to another space but still has the same objective as developing the body
on specific areas based on the type of movement used .Examples of movement
exercises that use non-Locomotor movements are hinge, lunge, push and pull, squat
and twist. The body remains in place and moves around its horizontal or vertical axis.
Other examples of Non-locomotor skills include stretching, bending, pulling, pushing,
swaying, twisting, log rolling and balancing. On the other hand, Locomotor Movements
are movements where the body travels through space from one location to another.
Locomotor movements’ primarity use the feet for support however, the body can travel
on other parts such as the hands and feet. Walk - The walk is a transfer of weight from
one foot to the other. Locomotor Movements are also used in the training program of
athletes and those who engage in physical activities in order to develop their skeletal
muscles. The examples movement exercises of Locomotor movements are Creep and
Crawl, Jumping and Landing Series, Linear Movements and Lateral Movements.
