Course objectiveAim of this course is to introduce the student who has an academic background other than the sport or health sciences to the anatomy of the musculo-skeletal system as well as basic kinesiology concepts. The course emphasizes the role and nature of muscles, muscular origins, insertions and functions, as well as articular function and structure. Another aim of the course is to develop an understanding of how to analyze basic resistance exercises and major athletic movements in theory and practice. 
Learning outcomes
  1. Describe and use the basic anatomical terminology as it relates to human musculo-skeletal system (such as, axis, planes, bone, joint, ligament) and human movement. Describe and use the basic terminology of major anatomical reference points. Describe the macro and micro structure and function of bones and muscles Identify the location of bones, joints, major muscles and ligaments of trunk, and upper and lower limbs Describe the movements of musculoskeletal system by using anatomical terminology, list the major muscles responsible for the movements Analyse muscular movements performed during basic resistance exercises and major athletic movements
Course ContentThe course includes musculo-skeletal system (anatomical terminology, axis and planes, description of human movements in anatomical terms, structure and functions of bones, joints, ligaments and muscles); components of the trunk, upper and lower limbs; muscular analysis of movements performed during basic resistance exercises and major athletic movements.
