Agree with Cinnamon You are right. So, 'Walking / Jogging activities' could also be considered. As I said before, it would be great to see the other items below.
Cinnamon Nolan Jun 18, 2013:
Agree with Alberjob I also think "Desplazamiento" means moving from point A to point B (whether coming back to A or not) in Spanish. Definition: tr. Mover a una persona o cosa del lugar en que está, trasladar.
To me "Changing place" just doesn't sound natural as a heading, and "Displacement(s)" sounds like we're talking about refugees or physics.
Alberjob Jun 18, 2013:
@ Cinnamon / Carmen / Lisa Well, if we want to be sure about what Lisa says, I think we need to see the other items after 'Desplazamiento', because there should be more below, don't you think?
Maybe one of those items below include clapping, shaking, swinging arms and legs or stretching, but for me it seems that this one only refers to walking / jogging, going form point A to point B and coming back. That's what the word 'Desplazamiento' suggests in Spanish.
Lisa McCarthy Jun 18, 2013:
@ Cinnamon / Carmen I suppose it could include something like this:

A warm up
Walking – on the spot, in circles, fast and slow
Clapping in different directions and on different levels.
Jogging – on the spot, in circles, fast and slow.
Shaking – legs and arms separately and in combinations ie. Same arm and leg, opposite arm
and leg,
Rotating – arms in shoulder sockets, legs in hip sockets, head on neck
Swinging – arms one at a time, arms in same direction, arms in opposite directions, legs one at
a time forward & back, side to side.
Stretching – any yoga or sports stretches suitable for preparing body to move.

@ Carmen How did you translate 'sin llegar a realizar carrera'? With this as a contrast, it seems to suggest walking/jogging (perhaps in a circle?) rather than just stretching or moving in place or moving one step/a few steps ...
Carmen Gabás (asker) Jun 18, 2013:
Hi Lisa The text divides the exercises into "apartados" depending on when they are performed. This particular paragraph is listed under "calentamiento". Thank you for your help. Regards, Carmen

Changing position / place

I think words like 'movement' could include any kind of motion, such as moving a leg, an arm or a finger. I think "changing position or place" is the best choice for this one.
