A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Muscle attachments and muscle actions

This topic focuses on where muscles attach to bones or other structures and how those attachments determine the movement a muscle produces. For exams in kinesiology and medical rehabilitation, you must master origin, insertion, and action because they are the basis for analysing movement, testing muscle function, and explaining weakness or deformity.
