• Summary:"Whatever your mathematical background, this proven text will help you understand the full continuum of human movement potential. Packed with tools and examples to support your learning, the book is designed throughout to help you success in your course and future career. --- *An emphasis on the movement of muscle groups; rather than individual muscles gives you a holistic understanding of human movement. --- *Practical applications; from sports, ergonomics, orthopedics, and exercise science demonstrate the relevance of biomechanics for your future. --- *Hands-on exercises; involve you in working out biomechanics problems to build your understanding - one step at a time. *In-text references to MaxTRAQ motion analysis software; encourage you to take your learning online where you can track data and analyze motion in a dynamic, video-enriched environment."--- from back of book.
