kinesiology:
scientific study of human movement, focusing on the body’s response to exercise and principles of physical activity for health and performance
Kinesiological analysis:
utilizes the principles of kinesiology to develop, diagnose, and treat motor skills.
kinesiologist analysis
application of principles to assess, diagnose, and improve.
-anatomical analysis:
the examination and understanding of the structure and organization of the body or a specific body part
-anatomical analysis purpose
body mechanism (how joints, muscular systems, and neuromuscular systems work together to create movement)
-mechanical analysis:
identifying principles of motion that govern the most effective form of movement
-critical:
speed, force, balance, direction, timing
-human kinetics:
study of the body’s mechanics
-static stretching:
holding a muscle in place for 30 seconds
-dynamic stretching:
controlled, active movements
