## Instructions

See [this article](/biomechanics/instructions) for details on how to use the Uplift Movement Library.

## Sport-Specific Activities

Sport-specific biomechanical analysis includes event detection and custom metrics. Be sure to label movement class and handedness correctly!

Capture 5-10 reps to get an accurate description of sport-specific biomechanics.

## General Movement Activities

Movement assessments include general motions that can be indicators of ability, performance, or injury risk.

It's standard to capture in 2-3 reps and/or in a protocol with other movements.

## Selective Functional Movement Assessment

The Selective Functional Movement Assessment (SFMA protocol) includes a wide variety of movements to identify any discomfort or pain from body motion.

* [SFMA Shoulder Flexion](/biomechanics/activities/range_of_motion/sfma_shoulder_flexion)
* [SFMA Squat](/biomechanics/activities/squat/sfma_squat)

## Free-Form Movement

Capture any motion! For best results, stay fully within all camera views and with only one person in view at a time. Select movement-activity: "other-other".

Uplift offers [Generic Outputs](/biomechanics/activities/generic_outputs) for all movements, including: joint angles, joint velocities, 3D keypoints, and metadata.
