ABSTRACT

In chapter 4, the static and dynamic activities have been succinctly described. In any sport, static activity is reduced almost to “0” percent because the athletes are always in motion. However, there are some sports activities/techniques in which static activity/balance prevails. Two examples are gymnastics (handstand position) where the gymnast has an unstable equilibrium or when the karateka stands in a one-leg stance (Sagi-ashi-dachi in Japanese).
