University Biomechanics Students and Educators
Toss the Textbook with this Modern, Engaging Video-Based Biomechanics Course Designed to Achieve Undergraduate Biomehanics Learning outcomes.
"I love that the lectures are split into 'lecturettes' that are all 10 minutes or under. It's the perfect amount of time that doesn't feel at all tedious, making it easy to find time to watch each of them. They also make it really easy to go back and review specific topics that you might be having trouble with, which is really helpful."

This course isn’t just about learning biomechanics—it’s about transforming how you learn and apply these concepts.
Watch short (5-10 minute) videos at your own pace, on your schedule. No more lengthy lectures—learn in bite-sized segments that are easy to digest.
Every video ends with a content check question to reinforce learning and ensure you grasp key concepts.
Engage with other students and instructors in the comment sections, ask questions, and see past student questions and answers.
Download PowerPoints for every lecture to follow along and take notes, providing a complete set of materials for study and review.
This course's content is based on two leading textbooks in biomechanics: The Fundamentals of Biomechanics (Second Edition) by Duane Knudson and Biomechanics of Sports and Exercise (Third Edition) by Peter M. McGinnis. This video course is designed to complement these textbooks, but it meets the guidelines outlined above without them. You can find links to them on our resource page.
Welcome to Undergraduate Biomechanics. This video course is an entire university-level undergraduate biomechanics course designed as a textbook alternative.
Inside this course, you will find everything you need to meet the Guidelines and Learning Objective for Undergraduate Biomechanics laid out by SHAPE America. You can find these guidelines as a .pdf download below.
This course's content is based on two leading textbooks in biomechanics: The Fundamentals of Biomechanics (Second Edition) by Duane Knudson and Biomechanics of Sports and Exercise (Third Edition) by Peter M. McGinnis.
While these textbooks are extremely valuable and contain a vast depth of biomechanics knowledge, this course was designed to better meet the needs of modern students. Every topic in this course is broken down into short (5-10 min) lecture videos that students can watch, pause, slow down, rewind, and replay as needed.
