Things to remember.Current LectureMaking goals are important to become and feel successful. You should set a goal, make a plan, get to work, stick to it, and reach that goal! There are ways to become more successful inachieving your goals. Instead of just setting a goal in your head, you should be writing it down, making an appropriate time to achieve the goal by, and telling others about it!Chapter 1 – intro to KinesiologyKinesiology is defined as knowledge derived from (1) experiencing physical activity, which can be anything from going to the gym, playing sports, or simply brushing your teeth,(2) scholarly study of physical activity, and (3) professional practice centered in physical activity.Kinesiology is the discipline focused on human physical activity. Physical activity knowledge derives from (1) personally experiencing physical activity, (2) the scholarly study of the subject, and (3) professionally putting this knowledge into practice to help others. These three things make up the study of Kinesiology. What is physical activity? Physical activity is the centerpiece of Kinesiology. It is a term that can be defined in so many ways. To define is more technically, physical activity is an intentional, voluntary movement directed toward achieving an identifiable goal. This definition does not include involuntary movement, such as breathing or blinking, or any performance done aimlessly and without a specific purpose, like fidgeting in class. To keep in mind, (1) there are no preconceptions about how much energy is used to produce the activity, (2) where the These notes represent a detailed interpretation of the professor’s lecture.

Training is something that focuses on specific goals and performances. Health-related physical activity is the focus on the improvement of your body to help your health and wellness. Therapeutic physical activity that helps you recover from something by doing exercises. Skilled movement is also a focus of Kinesiology. This is physical activity that can be applied to sports, for example. Many sports need specific skills or practice of a certain area or muscles in the body.The focus of perfecting a back hand in tennis, increasing your vertical in basketball, or practicingyour accuracy in kicking a soccer ball are all examples of skilled movement. Another focus of physical activity in Kinesiology is developmental movement, like a child learning to run or jump.Both direct participation in physical activity and the observation of physical activity are important sources to kinesiology.As previously stated, Kinesiology is defined as knowledge derived from (1) experiencing physical activity, (2) scholarly study of physical activity, and (3) professional practice centered inphysical activity. Each of these categories hassub-disciplines. The following is a list of examples for each: ExperiencesSelf-sufficiency: getting out of bed, making your own food, walking to class, etc.Self-expression: dancing, singing, performing poetry, cheering for a sports team, etc. Work: construction, janitor, labor jobs, etc. Leisure: pottery, hobbies, etc.Health experience: talking a walk with the family, dog, etc.Competition: sports, tug-a-war, etc. Studying physical activityMotor behaviorSport and exercise psychologyBiomechanicsPhysiology of physical activityPhilosophy of physical activityHistory of physical activitySociology of physical activityProfessional PracticeSport management Health and fitnessTherapeutic exerciseTeaching physical educationCoaching and sport educationKinesiology can be very holistic. These characteristics consist of soul, spiritual, cognition,emotions, and body/physical activity. Every physical activity can usually be applied to one or more of these holistic characteristics. Things to start thinking about and consider:Kinesiology is becoming a broad study. There are many professional paths that involve Kinesiology.
