Fitness and Disease Prevention

KINES 84Z is designed to give students a complete understanding of fundamental principles of physical fitness with an appreciation for disease prevention. Students are expected to explore wellness and disease, and variables which may affect performance over the lifespan. In this course, students acquire knowledge and critical thinking skills essential to the development of a healthful and active lifestyle and to develop an appreciation of a physically active lifestyle. In the linkage between KINES 84Z and BMB 1Z, students make connections between disease and lifestyle through health, wellness, and biochemical and molecular changes. Please note: this pride is not intended for students who intend to major in Kinesiology.
