Description
The first step on your path to success...
Foundation in Kinesiology and Biomechanics and Kinesiology in Action work together to create a complete learning experience that builds the foundational knowledge you need to take the next step in your education. A reader friendly text, full-color videos and interactive exercises guide you every step of the way, making an often complex subject easier to understand and apply.
Text Foundation in Kinesiology and Biomechanics
Develop the must-have knowledge you need of basic joint structure and muscle action and their normal and pathologic functions. You'll focus on the science behind muscle function and movement and how groups of muscle together can contribute to function or dysfunction. This evidence-based approach prepares you to explore the principles of rehabilitation that facilitate movement, strength, and mobility.
