Understanding biomechanics, human movement, and joint function give you important skills which quickly make you a high-level and highly- respected fitness professional.
This educational course has been developed to empower you with the knowledge, skills, and abilities to successfully and safely qualitatively assess an individual from a biomechanical standpoint and customize their instruction.
Biomechanics is the science that is at the heart of all personal training and sports coaching.
Please note that this course focuses on qualitative biomechanical analysis, so while there are some mathematical concepts that are reviewed, little to no math is required on the quizzes.

What is biomechanics? Why is this knowledge vital for all fitness professionals?
Biomechanics evaluates the motion and the actions of forces on that organism.
You will learn biomechanics as a combination of several different areas of study. This includes anatomy and physiology, kinematics (the study of motion without regard to its causes), kinesiology (the study of human movement) and kinetics (the study of forces acting on a system). Having this additional knowledge will give you a distinctive advantage over trainers and coaches who lack these special skills. Your clients will benefit by receiving better training, improved performance, and a reduction in injuries.
This course is comprehensive, and yet presented in a very easy-to-follow format. Human biomechanics and the mechanical analysis of human performance come down to how the joints and muscles interact during motion, and how the stress upon the joints hinders or helps movement during athletics.
1. Your interactive digital online manual to study at your own pace, in the comfort of your own home. Your manual contains 10 chapters covering an overview of the following sports sciences: Biomechanics, joint function, human kinetics, mechanical analysis, anatomy, kinetic chains & kinesiology.
2. Several comprehensive training videos with the extensive biomechanics study material in animated video format.
3. The biomechanics exam is taken online when you are ready.
