EX 301 Kinesiology

Kinesiology is the study of human movement and how anatomical and biomechanical principles affect human performance and fitness. This course will examine how bones, ligaments, cartilage, tendons, muscles, and nerves interact both structurally and functionally to allow for human movement. In addition, types of motion and range of motion will be examined, as will factors that both positively and negatively affect human movement. Application of kinesiology principles to everyday tasks, exercise, and sport skills will be emphasized. Offered alternate years.
