Evolution and Movement (Part 1)

The interest in evolutionary study lies in noticing the connection between movement abilities at different stages of infant growth and the movement abilities of vertebrates in various evolutionary stages—without necessarily implying an exact correspondence between human developmental movements and evolutionary descent. (Simmons, 2015) Thanks to our evolution as a vertebrate species, we have developed multiple locomotion and survival tools, such as bipedal walking, running, twisting, jumping, fine motor skills, and speech.
