Learn biomechanics with a leading introductory text B iomechanics of Sport and Exercise, Third Edition With Web Resource and MaxTRAQ Educational 2D S oftware Access, i ntroduces exercise and sport biomechanics in simple terms, helping students understand forces and their effects before studying how body structures deal with forces. This updated edition maintains the organization and features that made previous editions user friendly and incorporates new features to facilitate learning: Access to MaxTRAQ Educational 2D software allows students to analyze real-world sport movements through video. Web resource guides students step by step through the process of solving 18 sample problems. Art and diagrams enhance problem sets and help students visualize the mechanics of real-world scenarios. Increased number of review questions (200) and problem sets (120) provide an opportunity for practical application of concepts. Greater emphasis on the basics, including improved descriptions of conversions and an expanded explanation of the assumption of point mass when modeling objects, provides a stronger foundation. Content on deriving kinematic data from video or film and the use of accelerometers in monitoring physical activity keeps students informed of technological advances in the field.
