Understanding Biomechanics and Kinesiology

• Biomechanics The area of study wherein knowledge
  and methods of mechanics are applied to the
  structure and function of the living human
  system.
• What to expect from a course in Biomechanics and
  Kinesiology.

• Kinesiology The study of human movement from
  anatomical or mechanical perspective or both.
