Biomechanics is a component of the larger field of kinesiology,specifically that specialize in the mechanics of the movement.1 it's both a basic and engineering, encompassing research and practical use of its findings. Biomechanics includes not only the structure of bones and muscles and therefore the movement they will produce, but also the mechanics of blood circulation, renal function, and other body functions.2 The American Society of Biomechanics says that biomechanics represents the broad interplay between mechanics and biological systems.
