Anatomy, Physiology, and Kinesiology for Fitness Professions
In this course, you will gain the necessary scientific education that provides the groundwork for the application of safe and effective programming for fitness clients. Anatomy, Physiology, and Kinesiology are the sciences that provide the basis for fully understanding the parts of the body, how it works, and how it moves. It is vital for personal fitness trainers to have a strong understanding of anatomical structures, systems, and their functions to help guide clients in achieving their goals. By applying the understanding of Anatomy, Physiology, and Kinesiology in a fitness setting, you will be able to design and implement safe and effective exercise programs that meet the diverse needs of each client. This course will help you understand these concepts as a basis for applying them in real-world settings.
By the end of the course, you will be able to:
• Explain the importance of understanding Anatomy as a fitness professional.
• Explain the importance of understanding Physiology as a fitness professional.
• Explain the importance of understanding Kinesiology as a fitness professional.
• Apply the understanding of Anatomy, physiology, and kinesiology in a fitness setting.

It's enjoyable and I like that the readings and videos overlap in content so you can review what you've learned. Quizzes are pretty easy, but the final assignment doesn't align with the content in the course and asks you about muscles that have never been mentioned.

in terms of anatomy, it lack things like muscle origin and insertion. in biomechanics, it lack where each muscle has best leverage during the range of motion. analyzing machine torque is needed and free weights as well. it needs to be improved.

It would be more helpful to have a way to more easily save the reference materials, esp diagrams, as they would be more helpful for exercises (course) AND with overall future field work.

no me permite enviar tareas ni realizar examenes, ya que se sale de el sitio a todo instante y no me permite realizarlas. Asi no permite que sean calificadas y menos cuando son evaluaciones con tiempo para desarrollarlas
