Functional Kinesiology in Sports Conditioning navigates students through the scientific study of human movement, osteology and key ligamentous structures, and musculature. Through labeled pictures of landmarks on the body and categorized body regions, students grasp a better understanding of the fundamentals of kinesiology and how it correlates with sports conditioning.
Chapter 1: Movement Introduction
Planes of Movement or Motion
Fundamental Kinesiology Key Terms
Fundamental Joint Movements
Joint Actions
Chapter 2: Osteology and Key Ligamentous Structures—This section will include labeled pictures of key bony landmarks, specifically those that serve as attachment sites for the muscles to follow.
Chapter 3: Musculature—Musculature will be categorized by body region. Each muscle presented will include two pictures (one of the muscle and one of topographic anatomy). Each muscle’s origin, insertion, and action are included.
Shoulder Complex
Elbow, Wrist, and Hand
Hip and Thigh
Lower Leg, Ankle, and Foot
Trunk
Kelly Johnson, Ph.D., has been a pivotal member of the Department of Kinesiology in the Conway Medical Center College of Health and Human Performance since Fall 2018, serving as an assistant professor of exercise and sport science. He earned his Doctor of Philosophy in exercise physiology/exercise biochemistry and metabolism from the University of New Mexico, and holds a Master of Science in exercise physiology from the University of Akron.
Johnson's research focuses on the impact of GLP-1 medications on weight loss, body composition changes, and health outcomes in patients with obesity. He also explores innovative diet interventions for individuals with obesity. His expertise extends to body composition validation, sports nutrition, and the comprehensive monitoring of athletes during competitive seasons.
