COORDINATIO
N
COORDINATION
⦁ Coordination is the ability to use the senses and
body parts to perform tasks smoothly, efficiently,
and accurately.
⦁ If you are coordinated, you can make your
muscles work together at just the right time to
produce the exact amount of force you need to
accomplish a skill smoothly.

4
COORDINATION
⦁ In physical education, coordination is exercised
partially or in stages that can then be connected
until a correct motor performance is achieved.
⦁ Coordination is therefore a successive chain of
orderly and structured movements that allow the
technical execution of a sport or activity.

5
ADVANTAGES OF GOOD
COORDINATION
 Harmonious movements, colorful and precise.
 The final results have a high degree of
effectiveness.
 The task is accomplished with the least possible
energy and time expenditure.
 Unnecessary muscle contractions are avoided.
 The overall effectiveness of exercise, whether
strength, flexibility, endurance or speed, is
improved.

2 TYPES OF BALANCE

STATIC
BALANCE
STATIC BALANCE
⦁ Static balance is the ability to maintain postural
stability and orientation with center of mass over
the base of support and body at rest.
⦁ It is the ability to maintain the body in some
fixed posture

10
MECHANISMS IN STATIC
BALANCE
 Sufficient power in the muscles of the lower limbs
and trunk to maintain the body erect.
 Normal postural sensibility to convey information
concerning position.
 Normal impulses from the vestibular labyrinth
concerning position.
 A central coordinating mechanism, the chief part of
which is the vermis of the cerebellum.
 The activity of higher centers concerned in the willed
maintenance of posture.

11
STATIC BALANCE
Examples:
 squats
 two-leg stance
 one-leg stance

DYNAMIC
BALANCE
DYNAMIC BALANCE
⦁ Dynamic balance is the ability to transfer the
vertical projection of the center of gravity around
the supporting base of support.
⦁ Dynamic balance is the ability to maintain
postural stability and orientation with centre of
mass over the base of support while the body
parts are in motion.

5 BENEFITS OF DYNAMIC
BALANCE
1. Training for dynamic balance could help you
improve your running technique.
2. Dynamic balance training is an effective way to
strengthen and tone the obliques and the
muscles of the hips, thighs, glutes and low back.
3. Having good dynamic balance can help improve
your coordination and ability to react to sudden
changes of direction, both of which can help
reduce the risk of an accidental fall.

15
5 BENEFITS OF DYNAMIC
BALANCE
4. Dynamic balance exercises can easily be added
to the warm-up phase of a workout to prepare for
lower-body strength training, a long run, an
obstacle-course race, or for recreational sports
such as tennis, basketball or soccer.
5. Dynamic balance exercises can be used as low-
intensity recovery exercises.

16
 DYNAMIC BALANCE
Examples:
 jogging end to end
 sideways walking or
running with
crossovers
 forward walking or
running in a zigzag
line
 backward walking or
running in zigzag line.

Physical fitness is not only one
of the most important keys to a
healthy body, it is the basis of
dynamic and creative
intellectual activity.
