Centre of gravity , Line of gravity ,Axis and planes of Motion , fundamental starting position , terminology of fundamental movement and classification of muscle 

LOCATION AND ACTION OF MUSCLES AT VARIOUS JOINT 

1. Upper extremity -- shoulder , girdle , shoulder joint , elbow joint , Wrist joint , Meta phalangeal joints              
2. Lower extremity -- Hip joints , knee joint ,ankle joint , metacarpal joint.                                                          
3. Neck , Trunk 

MUSCULAR ANALYSIS OF FUNDAMENTAL MOVEMENT 

Walking , Running , Jumping , Throwing , Catching , Pulling , Pushing , Striking , Hanging 

STRUCTURE OF MOTOR MOVEMENT 

Structure of cyclic and acyclic motor action and movement combination functional relationship of different phases of action 

QUALITIES OF MOTOR MOVEMENTS

movement rhythm movement coupling , movement flow , movement precision and movement amplitude

PHYSIOLOGICAL PRINCIPLES OF MOVEMENTS

1. tones and its variations reciprocal innervation a and inhibition , Contraction - variations in the strength of contraction . the all on move law.                                                 
2. Warm - up , fatigue , grump , muscle strength and muscle pull.
