Understand human anatomy for the purpose of studying movement with this continuing education course. Kinetic Anatomy, Third Edition Print CE Course guides you through the bones, joints, muscles, muscle attachments, nerves, and blood vessels of the body with a full-color illustrated text. In-depth knowledge of the anatomical structures involved with physical movement will help you to identify and correct postural problems, prevent injury, and individualize exercise programs for your clients.

Kinetic Anatomy, Third Edition, guides you through identification of all of the bones in the human body as well as their anatomical landmarks. You will be able to identify the ligaments and tendons that attach the bones and form the major joints as well as the major muscles of the human body. What separates this course from a standard anatomy review is the application of anatomy to specific training exercises of the upper and lower body and core and descriptions of the fundamental movements of the human body. At the conclusion of the course, you will take a continuing education exam to receive credit through participating organizations.
