Center Of Gravity (COG)
Center of Gravity (COG):The point on the body, acted upon by gravity, about which the body is in equilibrium. The point at which all of a system's mass is concentrated. The point at which the three midplanes (sagittal, frontal and transverse) of the body intersect. In an ideally aligned posture, it is considered to be slightly anterior to the first or second sacral segment. (Kendall)
