Study of Kinesology and Biomechanics

Abstract

Most people are extremely skilled at standing, walking or climbing stairs in many daily movements. When children are two, they are skilled and not emotionally encouraged walkers with little instruction from their parents. Sadly, modern living does not require sufficient movement to prevent several chronic illnesses associated with low physical activity. Fortunately, many occupations of the human movement help people to take part in good physical activities. The benefit of physical activity is derived from physical educators, coaches, atletic trainers, strength and conditioning coaches, personal trainers and physical therapists. The professions of human movement rely on a degree in kinesiology and usually require training in biomechanics. Kinesiology refers to the whole academic field of the study of human movement, whereas biomechanics study movement and its causes in living organisms. Biomechanics provides the most effective and safest movement patterns, equipment and exercises for improving human movement.
