Sports Science- Biomechanics of Sport




Sports Science- Biomechanics of Sport

Are you interested in learning about Sports Science? In this course, we will be focusing on the Biomechanics of Sport. Sports Biomechanics focuses on the mechanics of sporting actions, explaining how the human body generates forces and produces movement. Sports Biomechanics can be an effective tool in helping athletes improve their performance and reduce their injury risk. In this course we will focus on the key topics of Sports Biomechanics; these being:

1) Forces and Newton's Laws

2) Skeletal System

3) Muscular System

4) Speed, Velocity & Acceleration

5) Work, Energy & Power

6) Analysing Motion

7) Projectile Motion

8) Fluid Dynamics

In total there are 18 videos to watch; totaling over 4 hours of content. Each topic has 1-3 videos, with each video lasting between 3-29 minutes. This content includes tasks for you to complete, as well as practical demonstrations to help your understanding. This course is delivered by an experienced lecturer in Sports Biomechanics, who has a Masters Degree in Sports and Exercise Science from Loughborough University.


If you would like to learn about Sports Science and more specifically Sports Biomechanics, then this is the course for you.
