movementpulling
Movementpulling is a term used in movement science and coaching to describe a class of motor strategies in which propulsion or object manipulation is achieved primarily through pulling actions. These actions typically involve coordinated engagement of the posterior chain and upper-limb musculature, including scapular retraction, elbow flexion, and forearm or trunk adduction, with the direction of travel guided by the sequence and timing of pulls.
Biophysically, movementpulling relies on the kinetic chain connecting the hips, spine, shoulder girdle, and arms. Efficient
Applications of movementpulling appear in athletic and performance contexts such as climbing, rowing, grappling, and certain
Variations include single-arm versus two-arm pulling, upper-body-dominant versus whole-body pulling, and dynamic versus static pulling. Training
Movementpulling remains a developing concept within movement science. It is discussed as a complementary strategy to
