Had my first Kinesiology & Therapeutic Exercise lab today. Was pretty fun! Even for a class that lasted all day!
We were in a class of nine students. We discussed simple biomechanics, learned a few moves (ab/adduction, in/eversion, rotation, etc) and even did some hands-on with one another trying to find bony landmarks and learning how to palpate. Then we practiced our biomechanics moves until lunch break, then came back to do some fun experiments about finding center of gravity in wheelchair patients -- by climbing into wheelchairs and going up and down ramps. It was a pretty full day, too, considering. I started typing this around 4 in the afternoon and had to take a quick nap in between posting it; the day wore me out.
