Sypnosis This course will focus on the physiological system and nutrition Sypnosis This course aims to develop an understanding of advanced
on strength training and conditioning. This involves various biomechanics topics and methods with a focus on gait and
physiological responses and adaptation to training. Nutrition postural control. Using interfaced forces plates, IR cameras
required for strength and conditioning will also be discussed. In and 3D movement analysis systems - experience is gained in
addition, other issues related to physiological system and the collection and analysis of external and internal forces,
nutrition concerning strength training and conditioning will also angular and linear kinematics, and muscle activation. While,
be addressed in this course. impulse momentum relationships are studied using high-impact
