Course Description

Examines human motion in physical activity and sports and the integration of anatomy and biomechanics. Explores the anatomical movements involved in a wide variety of motor and balance tasks, postural stability exercises, and exercise program design. Audit available.

Intended Outcomes for the course

Upon completion of the course students should be able to:

  1. Apply the principles of kinesiology and biomechanics, including the six motor skill-related fitness components, to functional movement assessment and exercise.
  2. Identify joint range of motion specific to each major muscle group.
  3. Analyze the structure and function of the major joints of the vertebral column, upper extremity and lower extremities.
  4. Identify and analyze the gait cycle.
