Example of a lumbopelvic (FP-PL) coupling-angle diagram that plots percentage total angular displacement during forward bending (x axis) versus coupling angles (y axis). Relative timing of a shift from lumbar domination to pelvic domination within the movement pattern is defined by % total angular displacement when the coupling angles are greater than 46°. Local minimum (LMin) or maximum (LMax) occurrences (insert) representing coordination changes in the coupling-angle diagrams was identified by the greatest (local maximum) or least (local minimum) values (X)
