Learning Outcomes
To provide all the basic knowledge about the functional anatomy of the human body and especially of the musculoskeletal system. The knowledge of functional anatomy and particularly of the skeleteal and muscular systems is absolutely necessary in many sport sciences such as ergophysiology, biomechanics, sports medicine.
