0

This course is designed to provide the student with an applied knowledge of the concepts of mechanics as they apply to human movement. Anatomical structure as well as fundamental mechanical principles affecting human movement will be reviewed and applied through directed case study experiences. Techniques and methods of human movement mechanics will be explored using qualitative assessment, considering muscle and joint actions, the resulting forces, and the effects on the mechanical system of the human body.
