Genetic or social determination of the direction of turns during physical exercise

Abstract
It was found that the direction of turns varies according to the kind of sport, gender, complexity of exercise and handedness. It seems that development of motor abilities is intially characterised symmetry of movements, or at least it is so at 10 years of age. Later on, asymmetry in turns is beginning to develop, as the result of specific nature of sport practised or other kind of exercising.
