19 MASTER OF STRENGTH & CONDITIONING 2019/2020 ACADEMIC SESSION

Credit 3
Course Code VQC7003 Course Learning At the end of the course, students are able to:
Course Title APPLIED PHYSIOLOGY AND NUTRITION Outcomes 1. Determine the different types of motions during typical
Credit 3 activities, and quantify the forces acting on the body.
Course Learning At the end this course, students are able to: 2. Gauge the limitations of different experimental techniques
Outcomes 1. Relate the function of the physiological system and nutrition used to quantify human movement and interpret the motion
to strength training and conditioning. data accurately.
2. Explain the physiological response and adaptation to 3. Demonstrate the analytical skills necessary to perform a
strength training and conditioning biomechanical analysis of human movement.
3. Explain the energy requirement and nutritional strategies in Sypnosis This course aims to develop an understanding of advanced
strength training and conditioning. biomechanics topics and methods with a focus on gait and
Sypnosis This course will focus on the physiological system and nutrition postural control. Using interfaced forces plates, IR cameras
on strength training and conditioning. This involves various and 3D movement analysis systems - experience is gained in
physiological responses and adaptation to training. Nutrition the collection and analysis of external and internal forces,
required for strength and conditioning will also be discussed. In angular and linear kinematics, and muscle activation. While,
addition, other issues related to physiological system and impulse momentum relationships are studied using high-impact
nutrition concerning strength training and conditioning will also activities such as running, jumping and lifting. The course
be addressed in this course. involves practical sessions which will be conducted in the
