KIN1020 - Weight Training FA25

An introduction to the fitness center and overview of weight training principles. This course is designed to help build a basic understanding of weight room etiquette, machine and free weight usage, weight training theory and practice, and implementation for self-improvement. Exercise knowledge, personal accountability, and self-confidence in the fitness center will be a primary focus of the course. Students will range from beginners to advanced. Requisites: None.

KIN240 S1 - Biomechanics FA25

The application of mechanical principles to the human body during exercise and sport. Rigid-body mechanics (statics and dynamics), force and motion (kinetics and kinematics), and analysis (qualitative and quantitative) of human movement will inform students of importance of biomechanics in everyday life. Students will practice their understanding of speed, acceleration, impulse, momentum, work, power, energy, and friction with laboratory activities covering planes, axes, and levers during motion, gait analysis in walking and running, linear and angular assessment of sport movements, and stability and balance corrective techniques. Mastery in biomechanical principles will be displayed with the presentation of a final group project. Requisites: None.

KIN431 S1 - Basic Strength & Conditioning FA25

This course focuses on developing skills in an applied strength and conditioning setting. Topics will cover human anatomy and exercise physiology, bioenergetics and endocrine response, biomechanics of sport movement, anaerobic and aerobic adaptation, warm-up, cool-down, and flexibility structure, and periodization. Hands-on laboratory exercises will allow students to practice assessing an athlete's body composition, flexibility, balance, anaerobic fitness, aerobic fitness, agility, power, and strength. Requisites: None.
