Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
In which anatomical plane would you perform a golf swing
A
Frontal
B
sagittal
C
posterior
D
Transverse
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Lateral leg and arm raises are examples of exercises in the frontal plane. The Transverse Plane cuts the body into top and bottom halves. Twisting movements like the golf swing happen in the transverse plane.

Detailed explanation-2: -The transverse plane, or the axial plane, divides the body into upper (superior) and lower (inferior) halves. Movements that occur in this plane involve rotation or horizontal movement, which include: Rotation: rotating the torso or a limb around its vertical axis (e.g., turning your head to the left or right)

Detailed explanation-3: -The Transverse Plane Transverse plane movements occur in all sports. A golf swing, baseball or softball swing, and a receiver going up and rotating his top half to make an acrobatic catch are all examples.

Detailed explanation-4: -Transverse plane movement facilitates motion, such as turning door knobs, turning to look over your shoulder, and twisting to throw a frisbee. Examples of resistance training exercises working in the transverse plane include Russian twists (photos below), woodchopper, and hip dip planks.

Detailed explanation-5: -Twisting or rotational movements occur in the transverse plane, such as twisting your head from side to side. Front to back movements occur in the sagittal plane, such as walking, pushing, pulling and squatting.
