Kinesiology:

 Kinesiology examines human or non-human body movement. Kinesiology deals with the physiological, biomechanical, and psychological dynamic principles and mechanisms of movement. Various applications of kinesiology to human health (i.e., human kinesiology) include biomechanics and orthopedics; strength and conditioning; sport psychology; methods of rehabilitation, such as physical and occupational therapy; and sport and exercise.   Adaptation through exercise is the major principle of kinesiology that is associated with improved fitness in athletes as well as health and wellness in clinical populations. Neuroplasticity is also a major scientific principle used in kinesiology to describe how movement and changes in the brain are related. The human brain can accommodate new motor skills based on this principle, which includes both adaptive and maladaptive brain changes. Motor redundancy is most commonly used concept in kinesiology and motor control which states that, for any task the human body can perform, there are effectively an unlimited number of ways the nervous system could achieve that task.
