1. Human and Animal Posture and Locomotion - (abstract) - Examples of feral (wild) children tell us that young humans who have been adopted by animals have adopted four-leg stances and many characteristics of an animal’s motor skills and behaviour. Young four-legged animals adopted by humans have never adopted a bipedal stance and they have never adopted any significant characteristic of humans’ motor skills and behaviour. ...

2. Human Sense of Balance and Physical Activities - (abstract) -. Our body has weight because of the pull of gravity. ... Supporting (maintaining posture) and carrying our own body weight (walking, running, jumping) is a work against the pull of gravity. ... The only way to acquire, maintain and improve the sense of balance is to be involved in specific physical activities. ... (Read the full text of the research article.)

3. Treadmill Exercises Effects on Postural Control and Locomotor Skills - (abstract) - By doing exercises on a treadmill, we improve our walking endurance but walking, running and jumping skills (locomotion skills) deteriorate). ... Deterioration of walking, running and jumping skills leads to the deterioration of walking and running efficiency. ... (Read the full text of the research article.)

4. Stationary Bike Workout Effects on Postural and Locomotor Skills - (abstract) - While driving road bicycles, the sense of balance is involved to a full extent because we must maintain our body and the bike in a balanced upright position. ... b) While driving a stationary bicycle (driving pedals), the involvement of the sense of balance is almost non-existent. Exercises on stationary bikes lead to improved muscular strength and endurance. Still, it doesn’t lead to improving the balance. By prolonged exercising on stationary bicycles, the sense of balance deteriorates. ... (Read the full text of the research article.)

5. Neurological Effects of Jumping on a Trampoline and the Effects it has on Postural Control and Locomotor Skills - (abstract) - In an urban and rural living environment, and also in a classic playground, any careless movement or any attempt to make a movement like a jump above our own physical ability will result in slightly or severe pain and occasionally will result in bumps and bruises. ... In an inflatable castle, children can walk, run and jump without any concerns of danger. ... On the one side, they master the jumping and landing skills on a rebounding and shock absorbing ground that has nothing in common with the real living environment. On the other side, it hinders the children’s ability to acquire a sense of danger and alertness. ... (Read the full text of the research article.)

6. Effects of Bouncy Castle Workouts on Postural Control and Locomotor Skills - (abstract) - Learning to walk in the real world goes along with acquiring a sense of danger. A real but safe living environment that isn’t overprotective in which children learn and master their walking, running and jumping skills enables them to acquire a spatial awareness and sense of danger. ... In an urban and rural living environment, and also in a classic playground, any careless movement or any attempt to make a movement like a jump above our own physical ability will result in slightly or severe pain and occasionally will result in bumps and bruises. ... In an inflatable castle, children can walk, run and jump without any concerns of danger. They master the jumping and landing skills on a rebounding and shock absorbing ground that has nothing in common with the real living environment. On the other side, it hinders the children’s ability to acquire a sense of danger and alertness. ... (Read the full text of the research article.)

7. Adverse Effects of Trampoline and Bouncy Castle Exercises on Children's Development of Thinking and Social Skills - (abstract) - ... Around three decades ago in the developed world, bouncy castles and other inflatable structures were introduced for recreation purposes mainly used by children at young ages. Inflatable structures like a bouncy castle, inflatable slides, obstacle courses, etc. are frequently used for children’s play during birthday parties, school and church festivals, community fan days, etc. ... Due to the huge popularity of inflatable structures like bouncy castles and the huge popularity of trampolines today in the developed world, children almost do not play traditional children’s games. ...

8. Fine and Gross Motor Skills Development in Children of Amish, Inuit, and Indigenous Communities - (abstract) - Amish children do not play on bouncy castles and other inflatable devices. They do not master their ability to walk or run on a treadmill or stationary bike. ... According to inconclusive reports, no Amish child is affected with autism. There are reports about incidences of autism among Amish children that are also inconclusive. However, even by taking those inconclusive reports seriously, compared to the general population, the incidence and prevalence of autism among Amish children are far below the national average. ... “In a recent report Fombonne, et al., state; No case of autism has ever been reported in an Inuit child in the past 15 years” ...

9. Temporary Movement/Motion Disorders and Temporary Neurological Disorders - (abstract) - Medication-induced movement disorder, like antipsychotic medication-induced movement disorder, is temporary. As the body gets rid of the medication, the movement disorder will disappear. Prolonged use of antipsychotics causes prolonged movement disorder. Prolonged movement disorder leads to persistent movement disorders, even if antipsychotics are not used. ... Physically induced movement disorders (voluntary movement disorders) like exercises on a stationary bike, treadmill, trampoline, bouncy castle and other inflatable structures are examples of temporary movement disorders. Temporary movement disorders persist as long as the physical activity on a stationary bike, treadmill, trampoline, bouncy castle and other inflatable structures lasts. Prolonged use of stationary bikes, treadmills, trampolines, bouncy castles and other inflatable structures may lead to permanent movement disorders. ... (Read the full text of the research article.)

10. Chronic Neurological Disorders and Chronic Movement Disorders - (abstract) - Every physical activity is at the same time brain activity. ... When something is wrong with the brain activity, at the same time there is something wrong with the muscular activity. ... Exercises on Bouncy Castles, Trampolines, Stationary Bikes and Treadmills are the types of physical activities that consist of repeated, rhythmic, purposeless movements (voluntary movement disorders). ... Voluntary movement disorder sooner or later will cause a neurological disorder. ... (Read the full text of the research article.)

11. Motion Sickness (sea, car, train, and aeroplane sickness) and Space Sickness - (abstract) - Travelling on the ship on rough seas, we frequently experience a slow rise (as a wave lifts the boat) and a slow fall (the wave causes the boat to fall). In the moment of slow lift up, the human body experience gravity forces greater than 1G (hyper-gravity). In the moment of slow fall, it is exposed to a strength of gravity forces less than 1G (microgravity - less than 1Gg but greater than 0G). ... (Read the full text of the research article.)
