• CONSIDERING CENTRE OF
GRAVITY OF THE BODY
• TAKING ADVANTAGE OF
MOMENTUM
• POSTURE
PRESENTED BY:
At the end of this lesson, the students are expected to:
• Show an understanding of considering centre of gravity of
the body
• Explain the advantage of momentum
• Value the importance of posture
Considering the centre of gravity is of importance in
lifting, supporting, or carrying a load and also in
reaching to get an object. It is always desirable to keep
the load close to the body so that centre of gravity is
taken care of.
POSTURE
• Body positions and motions are the key to
effective body use.
• The feeling of comfort and discomfort are
the results of the positioning of body
weights, use of muscles and the use of
skeletal system.
• Posture involves keeping the natural
balance of the body stable, whether sitting,
standing or moving.
“In correct posture, whether standing, sitting, or using a tool,
muscles constructed to do certain things do them. In
incorrect posture, muscles not so constructed must do the
job”.
A good standing posture is
one in which the head, neck,
chest and abdomen are
balanced vertically one upon
the other, so 'that the weight
is carried mainly by the bony
framework and a minimum of
effort and strain is placed
upon the muscles and
ligaments.

A good sitting posture for
work is well- balanced and
poised position. The weight is
carried by the bony support
of the skeleton thus relieving
the muscles and nerves of all
strain.

Taking advantage of momentum - Means the avoidance of stops and starts, and of change
of speeds.
