Kinesiology is the scientific study of human movement and the mechanisms underlying physical activity. It encompasses various disciplines, including anatomy, biomechanics, physiology, and neuroscience, to explore how the body moves and functions. The importance of kinesiology lies in its application across multiple fields, including health, fitness, rehabilitation, and sports performance. By understanding the principles of movement, professionals in kinesiology can design effective exercise programs, enhance athletic performance, prevent injuries, and promote overall health and well-being.
