Study of external forces and their effects on the body and its movement.  Students will analyze, describe, and explain motion as they apply biomechanical principles to sport, exercise, and understanding causes of injury.  This course emphasizes the application of core concepts of biomechanics using problem-based strategies that bridge the gap between the classroom and professional relevance. Special emphasis is placed on the biomechanics of resistance exercise. Prerequisite: BI 220 or BI 231 or KN 216  with a grade of “C” or better; Third-year standing. SP-1.
