Lecture Notes

Pictured here are all the major muscle groups of the body. If you think it looks like a lot of muscles, it is. We have more than 600 individual muscles in our body, and although you're not responsible for knowing the muscle anatomy in this class, knowing that anatomy and knowing the different muscle groups and how they work together is very important for developing a resistance training program in the future. So that may be something that you want to get to know in the future, but again, you're not responsible for knowing all of these muscle groups or individual muscles for this class.
