This course explains how the laws of physics and the principles of biomechanics directly influence muscle performance, exercise efficiency, and injury prevention. Learners will discover how to analyze movement patterns, optimize exercise technique, and design training programs that maximize muscle hypertrophy and strength gains. The course combines video lectures, interactive demonstrations, reading materials, quizzes, and a capstone project to bring theory into practice.
Target Audience:
- Personal trainers and strength coaches
- Fitness enthusiasts seeking a deeper understanding of muscle mechanics
- Athletes wanting to optimize performance and reduce injury risk
