In this module, you will identify the three primary functions of the nervous system: sensory, integrative, and motor. You will analyze the distinct roles of the central and peripheral nervous systems in coordinating these functions. You will also explain how the nervous system shapes movement patterns and contributes to injury prevention.

In this module, you will describe the basic physiological mechanisms behind energy conversion in the human body. You will compare the three primary bioenergetic pathways—ATP-PCr, glycolysis, and oxidative—used to produce ATP for physical activity. You will also explain the components and functions of the cardiorespiratory system, including how the cardiovascular and respiratory systems work together to support cellular function.

In this module, you will define basic anatomical terminology used to describe body positions and movements. You will describe the three planes of motion and the joint movements associated with each. You will also explain the different types of muscle actions and how they contribute to producing movement.

In this module, you will bring together concepts from across the course, including the components and roles of the kinetic chain's nervous, skeletal, and muscular systems. You will examine how posture affects skeletal growth, functionality, and joint health, and describe the structure and function of synovial joints, ligaments, and muscles, including eccentric, isometric, and concentric actions. You will also apply anatomical terminology and muscle action concepts, and explain how the nervous system's sensory, integrative, and motor functions support movement and injury prevention.
