With such a topic so broad we truly try to cover the basics from all angles in this group. Nothing too big or too small. Nutrition is as significant if not more as exercise is to reaching your goals so learn all you can.

I am designing a game for a continuing education course. it has to teach principles of exercise, muscle groups, and movements.

I have decided to base it on Family Feud (Fitness Feud)

So, I need to do a survey to determine the most common answers so there can be a top five (survey says...)

Here are the categories so far:

Name a muscle in your upper body

Name a muscle/muscle group in your lower body

Name (and demonstrate) a compound exercise that works the following muscle groups

Quadriceps

Hamstrings

Shoulders

Chest muscles

Back muscles

Calves

Name and demonstrate an isolation exercise that uses the following muscle groups:

quads

hamstrings

rear deltoid

front deltoid

medial deltoid

biceps

triceps

calves

abdominals (rectus)

Obliques

back extensors

Name and demonstrate a sport specific movement that specifically uses the following muscle groups:

quads

hamstrings

chest

back

shoulders

abdominals

Name and demonstrate a stretch for each of the following muscle groups:

Quads

Hamstrings

pectorals

latissimus dorsi

deltoids

calves

triceps

glutes

abdominals

Extra credit question:

Top five exercises in the gym with free weights

Top five resistance machines in the gym

Top five forms of aerobic exercise



So - help me out with some answers so I have a top five list for each category, would you?

THANK YOU, MMAIBOHM!!! That is what I need!

More input? Anyone?

Additional isolation exercises? I think front kicks and rear kicks count... cable exercises...I can come up with them all on my own, but then it wouldn't be a survey!

I actually ran a class through the game on Tuesday, they really liked it, and I handed in my final assignment and took my test yesterday.

I am officially renewed!
