Ever wonder what makes your body move? Come find out how muscles apply forces to bones to create movement without even thinking about it. Three expert Biomechanists will demonstrate how engineering and mathematics can be used to unravel the mysteries of the human body. Biomechanics can be used to better understand complex concepts, improve sport performance, prevent injuries, and heal the body. Join us to be a part of the National Biomechanics Day celebrations worldwide.
