This subject combines Biomechanics and Sports Conditioning to build a strong foundation in performance analysis and physical preparation. In Biomechanics, students apply theory to their practical sporting experience, providing early exposure to key concepts in Unit 3, Area of Study 1 of VCE PE.
Analysing, interpreting, and applying biomechanical principles using visual, physical, and graphical data to improve movement performance
Conducting qualitative movement analysis through video review and systematic observation
Participating in and leading components of structured exercise training sessions
Designing personalised training programs that correctly apply key training principles and methods to target specific fitness components
Biomechanics - you’ll learn how to apply scientific principles to improve sporting performance. By connecting theory with your practical experience, you'll gain early insight into topics in Unit 3 of VCE PE.
Sports Conditioning - you'll learn how to design and perform your own training program, tailored to your personal fitness goals. This hands-on experience will help you better understand training methods, principles, and the physical adaptations that occur over time.
