A Biomechanical Analysis Of The Gymnastics Cartwheel Using Dartfish Motion Analysis Software, Keilea Bullard Apr 2012

A Biomechanical Analysis Of The Gymnastics Cartwheel Using Dartfish Motion Analysis Software, Keilea Bullard

Undergraduate Research Conference

The biomechanical analysis required videotaping two subjects performing the cartwheel to the best of their ability. Strict protocols were followed to ensure the analysis was accurate. In order to measure distances in the Dartfish program, an object of known length had to be recorded. Subjects were asked to hold a scaling rod for ten seconds before beginning their trials. Subjects recorded four trials each and all data was imported into the Dartfish program. Average trials for both subjects were chosen to be analyzed extensively for strengths, weaknesses and most importantly the overall biomechanics of the cartwheel. The subjects’ video was …
