Educational self-study course

Biomechanics

Turn a movement question into an explicit model, a checked calculation and a defensible explanation.

University kinesiology, exercise-science and health-science students.

What you will work toward

  • Construct free-body diagrams with clear boundaries.
  • Calculate motion, force, moment, work and power with units.
  • Compare strategies and explain uncertainty without inventing tissue loads.

Before you start

  • Functional anatomy; algebra, trigonometry, units and vectors bridge.

No compulsory paid prerequisite bundle is planned. Equivalent knowledge counts.

A prerequisite self-check

Can you rearrange a simple equation and distinguish a force from a moment?

If not yet, use the introductory bridge before moving ahead. This is a study prompt, not an admissions test.

This related free resource introduces the learning approach. It is separate from the paid course. Public free content remains free.

What is included

  • Structured text, original or licensed diagrams where useful, and worked problems.
  • Independent practice with progressive hints, answer explanations and misconception feedback.
  • Personal-use worksheets and course corrections during the access period.
  • A final transfer task for applying ideas in a changed situation.

Boundaries and support

Simplified movement models do not diagnose injury or define one ideal technique.

No live teaching, individual marking, unlimited personal support, accreditation, future courses or lifetime updates are promised.

Browser-local AI is currently unavailable, not an included working feature. Essential study help will not require a paid AI service.
