What are the 4 preparatory movements in locomotor?

The four preparatory movements in locomotor skills are typically referred to as the "ready position," "weight transfer," "push-off," and "landing." The ready position involves aligning the body for movement, while weight transfer shifts the body's center of gravity to initiate motion. Push-off is the act of propelling the body forward or upward, and landing involves absorbing impact and stabilizing the body upon arrival. These movements are essential for efficient and controlled locomotion in various activities.
