Anatomical Kinesiology

The new 3rd edition of Anatomical Kinesiology has been designed to be used in conjunction with many introductory kinesiology courses and textbooks; hence specific muscle origins and insertions have been purposefully left out due to minor inconsistencies across many different text books.Anatomical Kinesiology:Keeps each exercise specific to one major joint and its muscles while always emphasizing general joint actions, proper anatomical terminology and how the lever system works in the human body.Includes two new laboratory exercisesEmphasizes that redundancy is a key to learning joint actions, the muscles responsible for creating the actions and how the muscles created the actions ie: concentrically, eccentrically, or isometrically.Includes easily understood picture sets to facilitate class discussions using common weight room and sport activities.
