Created expressly for those who will work in physical activity fields, this unique text addresses how anatomy affects movement. Kinetic Anatomy makes it easy for future athletic trainers, physical education teachers, kinesiologists, and coaches to learn the fundamentals of anatomy—and to retain their knowledge for future application in advanced courses or on the job. 
Kinetic Anatomy lays the foundation for students to learn how anatomy affects movement of the human body. Readers will be able to apply this knowledge in the future as they work with, treat, and train the physically active. 
Drawing inspiration from its predecessor, the popular text Living Anatomy, this all-new resource encourages hands-on learning exercises that bring the text to life. Kinetic Anatomy helps students learn anatomy by identifying structures on themselves or fellow students and by observing how the structures move. Nearly 100 of these hands-on exercises provide a tangible framework for understanding the anatomical structures involved in movement and how they function. Enhancing these exercises are abundant visual tools, with 391 quality illustrations and 122 photographs that allow students to visualize anatomy—especially important for courses without access to cadavers. 
The text presents the basic vocabulary of anatomy, explaining how a human skeleton is constructed and how it moves. Kinetic Anatomy systematically teaches readers about bones, muscles, joints, ligaments, nerves, and blood vessels for the upper extremity, the spinal column and pelvis, the thorax, and the lower extremity. 
Never before has learning anatomy been this easy. Kinetic Anatomy is an outstanding introductory resource for those who plan to specialize in any field of exercise or sport science.
