 MOVEMENT
PATTERN:
EXERCISE BASED
The Foundation of Exercise

These movements are great to include in your training plan because they improve
your function in everyday life and reduce your chance of injury.

Each time your body coordinates the muscles to perform one of these movement
patterns, you’re in the process of developing new neural pathways. The more you
perform the movements, the more ingrained and efficient the pathways become, and
the more benefits you receive from them.
 MOVEMENT is the
foundation upon which all fitness
and exercise rests. Your body is
built to move in specific ways. In
fact, there are a handful of
movements through which your
body is intended to work no matter
the environment or activity.
 These are widely known as
“Foundational Movement
Exercise”, “Fundamental
Movement Patterns”, or basically
known as “Movement Patterns”.
 There are common movement
exercises that we commonly do or
perform, such as squat, lunge,
bend, core, push, pull and
walking.
1. SQUAT – It is a movement
pattern in which it is designed
when we are sitting on chairs, • Goblet squat

couches, and toilets. Squatting • Pistol squat

and standing is one of the basic

movements that is getting up
and down.

• Cyclist Squat
2. LUNGE – It involves
stepping forward, lowering
your body toward the ground,
and returning back to the
starting position. It looks like a
squat but your one leg must be
extended at the back or in
front.
3. BEND – curving your body
from head to foot. It is usually
applied when stretching or
warming up in sports specially
on swimming.

• Sean Dive • Neutral • Nose Dive

Spine
4. CORE – any exercise that
involves the use of you
stomach muscles and back • Plank
muscles in a coordinated way
counts as a core exercise.

• Crunc
h

• Bird-dog exercise
5. PUSH – requires you to to
move a load or object away
from you in some capacity.
- Either by pushing
yourself from the ground or
against a load or object over • Pus-up
your head.
6. PULL – This movement
pattern works the muscle of the
latissimus dorsi, trapezius,
posterior deltoid and biceps.
• Bent-over row

• Pull up
7. WALKING – this type of
movement pattern is the very
common and we do it every • Nordic walk
minute and second in our lives.

• Brisk walk
WHY MOVEMENT PATTERNS IS IMPORTANT?

Training in movement patterns, or also known a functional

training, has various advantages including improved balance and
coordination. By making sure that our workout schedules are
balanced and forcing us to concentrate on all major muscle
development, it helps to prevent injuries. Over time, this
contributes to increase strength and muscle.
  Movement patterns are realistically just a

SUMMARY way of categorizing exercises based on their

biomechanical demands.
  Movement patterns are also called as the

will maintain your immune system strong.
