Biomechanical Classification of Exercises
This classification system helps organize exercises based on mechanics, making it easier to program and monitor training. Exercises are primarily divided into compound and isolation movements, with further subcategories based on joint action, body region, and contraction type. Additional descriptors, like static vs. dynamic, unilateral vs. bilateral, and range focus, offer precision in understanding exercise demands and tailoring them to specific training goals.
