Document Summary

Used to study the impact of cerebral palsy like walking and running. Must be considered an inherent part of physical therapy, which purports the distinctive characteristics of prevention, evaluation, and treatment of movement dysfunction. In fact, isolating physical therapy from biomechanics appears impossible. How we can treat the disabilities that take place. Can give us information in understanding movement and disabilities with movements. The science of rowing biomechanics is devoted to gibing coaches the data they need to analyze technique and boat speed. It deals with the precise measurement of forces to explain and optimize the complex interactions between athletes and equipment margaret mcbride. Analyzes the relationship between the athlete and the equipment to optimize the performance. Biomechanics - the mechanics of structure and function (or, the physics of biological movement) The relationship between forces that keep objects in balance. Example a bridge how much weight can the bridge endure before it collapses.
