Anatomy for Exercise
Anatomy
for Exercise is a dynamic new resource for fitness professionals in training and
practice.
An easy to use visual resource that makes complex anatomy and functional
anatomy easier to learn, remember and understand. The 3D
anatomy section includes detailed and labeled 3D models and sequences covering
anatomical language, bones, joints and joint action, muscles, respiratory and
cardiovascular systems including labeled cardiac cycles. 3D views can be
rotated to view all structures, layers of anatomy can be added or removed using
interactive functions. Any visible structure can be identified by
pop-up labeling – a great way to learn and revise
anatomy. Clicking on a structure will also bring up brief descriptive text for
that structure.
Includes forty three 3D animations of normal muscle
function during movement. Anatomical planes are explained visually,
and animation is used to show joint actions and muscle function during common
movements such as flexion, extension, adduction,
abduction, and internal/external rotation. Plus, view labeled 3D models
of the heart and 3D sequences of the cardiac cycle
for better understanding of the anatomy and processes.
Benefits
-
Learn,
understand and remember relevant anatomy more quickly and easily using clear,
accurate and labeled 3D images and sequences.
- Viewing 3D dynamic sequences of joint actions
and muscle movements will aid understanding, recall and application to
exercise movement.
- Export images from the software to produce
beautifully illustrated and professional client information sheets.
- Use the software to aid explanations and quickly
educate your clients
