The Biomechanics of Exercise is a key underpinning module to help you decide which exercise will be beneficial for your client. We analyse a specific movement throughout the day and ascertain what is happening at every single joint and what every single muscle is doing to enable someone to complete that movement. This knowledge can then help you 3D analyse any movement which is perfect when you need to produce a rehabilitation plan that is specific to an individuals capacity.

• Analyse the joint action and muscle actions of:

  • Ankle/Foot

  • Knee
