  2. Wrist spin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wrist_spin

    A wrist spin delivery is released with the arm held in a fully pronated position, with the fingers on the inside of the ball (to the left for a right-handed bowler). If this pronated position is maintained through the release, the fingers will naturally cut down the side of the ball and produce an anti-clockwise spin.

  3. Finger spin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finger_spin

    An off spin delivery. Ajantha Mendis at the point of delivery. Although finger spin may be bowled with the same technique (albeit laterally inverted, as though viewed in a mirror) by both right and left handed bowlers, such bowlers are often discussed separately, as the direction in which the ball deviates as it bounces on the cricket pitch is different:

  4. Gyroscopic exercise tool - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyroscopic_exercise_tool

    The direction and speed of the shift can be found from the formula for the precession of a gyroscope: the applied torque is equal to the cross product of the angular velocity of precession and the angular momentum of the spinning mass. The rate of rotation of the internal ball increases as the total amount of torque applied is increased.

    Still, walking at a slower speed for a longer period of time (about three miles per hour for an hour) led to greater total fat loss in postmenopausal women in a 2023 study in Nutrients.

  6. Types of bowlers in cricket - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Types_of_bowlers_in_cricket

    The spin on the ball makes its movement hard to predict, particularly when it bounces, hence spin bowlers try to deceive batsmen into making a mistake. Speed is not crucial in spin bowling, and spinners tend to bowl in the slow-medium to medium-slow range, around 45-55 mph. There are two broad categories of spin bowling: wrist spin and finger spin.

  7. Arm swing in human locomotion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arm_swing_in_human_locomotion

    As the walking speed increases, the amplitude of the arm swing increases accordingly. The frequency of the arm movements changes with the speed as well. Studies showed that at speeds lower than approximately 0.8 m/s, the frequency ratio between arm and leg movements is 2:1 whereas above that speed the ratio becomes 1:1. [4]

  8. Hand walking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hand_walking

    Hand walking is a skill that relies on a prerequisite ability to perform handstands, which in turn requires adequate upper body pressing strength in the deltoids and triceps as well as a heightened sense of balance and spatial awareness. Because the body is inverted during hand walking, blood pressure in the brain is greater than normal.

  9. Fine motor skill - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fine_motor_skill

    Fine motor skills are involved in smaller movements that occur in the wrists, hands, fingers, feet and toes. Specifically, single joint movements are fine motor movements and require fine motor skills. They involve smaller actions such as picking up objects between the thumb and finger, writing carefully, and blinking.
