4 0

In 1833 the Government passed a Factory Act to improve conditions for children working in factories. Young children were working very long hours in workplaces where conditions were often terrible. The basic act was as follows:

no child workers under nine years of age, employers must have an age certificate for their child workers, children of 9-13 years to work no more than nine hours a day, children of 13-18 years to work no more than 12 hours a day, children are not to work at night, two hours schooling each day for children, for factory inspectors appointed to enforce the law

However, the passing of this act did not mean that the mistreatment of children stopped overnight. Using these sources, investigate how the far the act had solved the problems of child labor.

34kurt

Answer and explanation:

The six fundamental movements of major body segments are:

Flexion
Extension
Abduction
Adduction
Rotation
Circumduction

Example excersises for each body segments are:

Flexion: Considering the muscles involving this movement (those being shoulder, elbows, hip, knee joints), an example for flexion would be knees to the chest or pelvic presses (bridges with a little weight).
Extension: Considering the muscles invoving this movement (that being the knee), an example for extension would be any kind of leg extension excercise (can be perfomed with a machine at a gym or a resistance band at home)
Abduction: Considering the muscles involving this movement (that being the arm and shoulder), an example for abduction movement would be lateral raises.
Adduction: Considering the muscles involving this movement (that being the leg and hip), an example for adduction movement would be isometric side planks.
Rotation: Considering the muscles involving this movement (that being upper arm area), an example for rotation movement would be arm circles.
Circumduction: Considering the muscles involving this movement (that being the shoulder and arm), an example for circumduction movement would be moving our arms to the front and then to the back like hammocking them.

Having a broad knowledge about these movements, the anatomy involved in each one of them and how to correctly execute some basic exercises, will help me as a personal trainer to be able to understand the needs of my future clients and prepare exercise routines according to their physical capacity and their goals.
