Gary Ward – Biomechanics Of The Upper Body In Motion 2023

Gary Ward’s “Biomechanics of the Upper Body in Motion 2023” is an advanced course that explores the principles and applications of biomechanics specifically for the upper body. The program provides an in-depth analysis of how the upper body moves, focusing on the interactions between muscles, joints, and connective tissues during various activities. Participants learn about optimal movement patterns, common dysfunctions, and techniques for improving performance and preventing injuries. The course includes practical insights into assessing and enhancing upper body mechanics for athletes, therapists, and movement professionals, aiming to optimize function and efficiency in upper body movements.

This programme follows on from the Closed Chain Biomechanics of the Lower Limb course – it is advised that you complete that course first before embarking on this one. Though it’s not strictly necessary, it is recommended as the two programmes come together at the end of the upper body programme to enable us to start looking at the mechanics of the whole body. The detail included in the Lower Limb programme is NOT included in this programme. Both together will form the pathway for future learning with Anatomy in Motion.

The intention of this online course is to introduce you to the three dimensional movements of the Upper Body so as to begin to understand the simplicity of whole body movement and how the body is perfectly set up to effortlessly move through the gait cycle.
