Planes of motion refer to the different ways in which the body can move during physical activities. There are three primary planes: the sagittal plane, which divides the body into left and right halves; the frontal plane, which separates the body into front and back sections; and the transverse plane, which divides the body into upper and lower parts. Understanding these planes helps in analyzing movements in sports, exercise, and rehabilitation. Each plane of motion is associated with specific types of movements. For example, movements like bicep curls occur in the sagittal plane, while jumping jacks take place in the frontal plane. Rotational movements, such as twisting, happen in the transverse plane. Recognizing these planes aids in designing effective training programs and improving overall movement efficiency.
