    Axial – along the center of a round body, or the axis of rotation of a body; Radial – along a direction pointing along a radius from the center of an object, or perpendicular to a curved path. Circumferential (or azimuthal) – following around a curve or circumference of an object.

    The main anatomical planes of the human body, including median (red), parasagittal (yellow), frontal or coronal plane (blue) and transverse or axial plane (green).. A fly or flye is a strength training exercise in which the hand and arm move through an arc while the elbow is kept at a constant angle.

  4. Orientation (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orientation_(geometry)

    Changing orientation of a rigid body is the same as rotating the axes of a reference frame attached to it.. In geometry, the orientation, attitude, bearing, direction, or angular position of an object – such as a line, plane or rigid body – is part of the description of how it is placed in the space it occupies. [1]

  5. Axial parallelism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_parallelism

    Axial parallelism of Earth. Axial parallelism (also called gyroscopic stiffness, inertia or rigidity, or "rigidity in space") is the characteristic of a rotating body in which the direction of the axis of rotation remains fixed as the object moves through space. In astronomy, this characteristic is found in astronomical bodies in orbit.

  6. List of human positions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_human_positions

    Human positions refer to the different physical configurations that the human body can take. There are several synonyms that refer to human positioning, often used interchangeably, but having specific nuances of meaning. [1] Position is a general term for a configuration of the human body. Posture means an intentionally or habitually assumed ...

  7. Axiality (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axiality_(geometry)

    Lassak (2002) showed that every convex set has axiality at least 2/3. [1] This result improved a previous lower bound of 5/8 by Krakowski (1963). [2] The best upper bound known is given by a particular convex quadrilateral, found through a computer search, whose axiality is less than 0.816.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutral_body_posture

    Differences in posture exhibited in this study could be a result of the athletic bearing of the participants or the type of exercise, or both, and the amount of exercise regularly performed. Other differences may also stem from past physical injuries such as bone breaks and knee or shoulder injuries, and from gender differences such as center ...
