Exercise can fall into two basic types of activity. Closed Kinetic Chain Exercises and Open Kinetic Chain Exercises.

o Closed Kinetic chain exercises include those in which the distal end of the exercise is fixed such as a squat or lunge where the feet remain in place while the exercise is preformed.

o Opened Kinetic chain exercises do not have a fixed distal point, such as a bicep curl or leg extension.

o CKC Exercises are generally considered superior because they require the coordination of multiple muscle groups during functional movement according to the American Council on Exercise “Advanced Health and Fitness Specialist Manual.
