-
2.00 Credits
Examination of the neuromuscular and skeletal systems as related to movement. Detailed knowledge of origins, insertions, innervations, and actions of muscles will be presented. Students will select movements or exercises that utilize specific musclegroups and will analyze joint actions, muscle actions, and mechanical principles that apply to performance. Prerequisite: BIOL 205 or 211. Spring.
-
4.00 Credits
The discussion of the normal physiological responses to, and the recovery from, acute and chronic exercise stresses in the trained and untrained individual. The use of exercise as a means to assess fitness, improve fitness and the impact that conditions such as ageing, obesity and lack of physical activity have on health and fitness will be discussed. Specific laboratory activities will occur to assess student's overall fitness. Each of the following systems will be addressed: energy production, cardiovascular, neuromuscularand respiratory. Prerequisites: Enrollment in physical therapy curriculum or those pursuing a minor in Exercise Physiology with permission of instructor; BIOL 111, 205, 206;CHEM 103, 104 or their equivalent. Fall
-
4.00 Credits
An overview of the effects of acute and chronic exercise and training on the neuromuscular and cardiorespiratory systems. An introduction to exercise testing and prescription by participation in weekly laboratory activities will introduce the student to fitnessassessment, and the interpretation of data for the purpose of writing an individualized exercise prescription. Three hours lecture, and one 2-hour laboratory per week. Prerequisites: BIOL 205, 206; CHEM 101, 102 or 103, 104 or equivalent. Fall.
