Anatomy and Physiology of Human Movement

This document discusses how a course in anatomy and physiology affects a physical education major. It explains that anatomy studies the structure of the body while physiology examines the functions of those structures. This course is key for a PE major to understand how the body moves and what types of exercises impact different parts of the body. It allows them to evaluate their own capabilities and determine which sports they may be best suited for. The course also helps the student learn new terminology and avoid potential injuries by understanding human movement.

ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY OF HUMAN MOVEMENT

An essay on how this course affect me as a PE major

Being a Physical Education major is being a fitness advocate. Physical Education major

engages in physical activities such as sports, recreational, dancing, exercise that includes human

body movement. In able to execute it smoothly, it need a sound and fit body. This things can

only done with the aid of anatomy and physiology.

Anatomy is the science studying the internal and external structure of a body and

physiology is the science in studying the purpose and functions of structure in the body. This

course is the keystones that will determine my capability as a Physical Education major.

Learning the functions of the body helps me to identify what kind of simulation is needed to

improve a certain part of my body. Learning this course enables me to have adequate knowledge

to evaluate the impact of exercise in the body. This course also enables me unveils and explore

more about the structure of the body. I’m amazed that before I only know some parts but this

course helps me to understand what is responsible in this kind of movement. It also enables me

to assess what type of sports I am capable, for example the capability of my upper limbs versus

the capability of my lower limbs. I have more capability and control on my upper limb than my

lower limb, Therefore, I can perform better in throws than track field. As I can see this is not

only the science of understanding and knowing but also the science that avoids from further

injuries. This course also help me to understand words and vocabulary that is new to my tongue,

which this words will be used throughout so I can survive this course.
