Course Description
Human movement is the result of complex interactions between the nervous system, musculoskeletal structures, and environmental demands. In this ISCN lecture, Dr. Nathan Keiser explores how clinicians and researchers can deconstruct “normal” human movement using a systematic analytical approach. The session examines biomechanical and neurological factors that contribute to coordinated movement patterns. Participants will learn how the nervous system integrates sensory information and motor output to produce efficient and adaptable movement. The lecture also reviews how variations in movement patterns can influence performance, injury risk, and rehabilitation outcomes. By analyzing movement from both neurological and biomechanical perspectives, this session highlights methods used to evaluate human performance and identify areas for improvement in clinical and athletic settings.
What you’ll learn:
- Understand principles underlying normal human movement.
- Explore biomechanical and neurological factors influencing movement.
- Examine variability and adaptability in motor performance.
- Learn systematic methods for assessing movement patterns.
- Identify applications in rehabilitation and performance training.
Components
Educational Syllabus
- Topic 1 – Defining “Normal” Human Movement
- Explore how clinicians and researchers define normal movement patterns in human performance.
- Topic 2 – Biomechanics of Movement
- Examine how joints, muscles, and connective tissues contribute to coordinated movement.
- Topic 3 – Neural Control of Movement
- Understand how the nervous system regulates posture, coordination, and motor execution.
- Topic 4 – Movement Variability and Adaptation
- Review how variability in movement can support adaptability and motor learning.
- Topic 5 – Identifying Dysfunctional Movement Patterns
- Explore how deviations from optimal movement patterns can affect performance and injury risk.
- Topic 6 – Systematic Assessment of Human Movement
- Learn structured approaches used to analyze and evaluate movement patterns.
- Topic 7 – Applications in Performance and Rehabilitation
- Discuss how movement analysis informs training, injury prevention, and rehabilitation strategies.
