Prerequisite: HES 311, reserved for Health and Exercise Science majors This course examines the physiological responses to acute and chronic exercise in children and adolescents. An emphasis is placed on exploring differences between youth and adults to exercise training and discussing the influence of growth and maturation on fitness performance. A review of current pediatric research will be used to design exercise programs for healthy children as well as youth with chronic disease HES 301: Sports Biomechanics 1 course unit Prerequisites: HES 103/203 and 105/205, reserved for Health and Exercise Science majors A junior-level course for Exercise Science students. This course prepares students for a career in a fitness-related field. This course provides students with a foundation in kinesiology, exercise technique, kinetics, and kinematics that is essential for understanding the basic principles of human movement. This course is exempt for students that take HES 204, but a requirement if the student takes HES 205.
