This course examines the relationship between the structure and function of the musculoskeletal system. Basic concepts focusing on the composition and function of the musculoskeletal system will be examined. Primary focus will be on the skeletal system, naming bones, and boney landmarks, attachments, and actions of the primary muscle groups. Students will gain an understanding of how joint shapes allow or limit anatomical actions and how muscles pull on bones to produce those actions. Students will apply this knowledge to musculoskeletal movements, and exercises and how they are performed in a practical aspect.
