(formerly Exercise Science)

Acute and chronic physiological adaptations to exercise stress. Topics include: metabolic, skeletal muscle, respiratory and cardiovascular function during exercise, body composition, the elite athlete, ergogenic acids, and performance. Includes labs on techniques to quantify human performance capacity.

Introduction to mechanics and its application to human motion. Includes linear and angular kinematics and kinetics, mechanics of fluids, and elementary analysis of human motion.

This course will provide students with fundamental knowledge underlying the benefits of strength and conditioning. Emphasis is placed on the design and implementation of effective strength and conditioning programs for performance as well as health and fitness. We will apply the multi-disciplinary knowledge in the science of exercise, physical activity, biomechanics and bioenergetics to various populations to identify how they impact performance.

This course is designed to bridge the Gen Eds and introductory kinesiology courses with upper-division classes and more focused study and will provide opportunities for students to apply their knowledge to real-world situations through work in teams. Additionally, there is a career development component designed to provide students with the necessary skill set to transition from students to successful careers in the field of kinesiology.
