FUNCTIONAL ANATOMY AND BIOMECHANICS FOR THE ATHLETIC TRAINER.

Catalog description

This course builds on prerequisite knowledge of human musculoskeletal anatomy to describe human movement. Principles of biomechanics and kinesiology will guide the understanding of mechanical and physiologic interactions between muscles and joints to form the basis of understanding normal and pathological movement. This course will specifically focus on identifying musculoskeletal landmarks through lecture, virtual cadaver learning, and hands-on palpation. Prerequisite: Admission to MSAT Program.
