Biomechanics is the sport science field that applies the laws of mechanics and physics to human performance, in order to gain a greater understanding of performance in athletic events through modeling, simulation and measurement. It is also necessary to have a good understanding of the application of physics to sport, as physical principles such as motion, resistance, momentum and friction play a part in most sporting events. The general role of biomechanics is to understand the mechanical cause-effect relationships that determine the motions of living organisms. In relation to sport, biomechanics contributes to the description, explanation, and prediction of the mechanical aspects of human exercise, sport and play. Kinesiology is the scientific study of human or non-human body movement. Kinesiology addresses physiological, biomechanical, and psychological mechanisms of movement. 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. Studies of human and animal motion include measures from motion tracking systems, electrophysiology of muscle and brain activity, various methods for monitoring physiological function, and other behavioral and cognitive research techniques.

We live in an era when the unprecedented speed of change means: The only certainty is uncertainty; you can't predict what skills will be useful in ten years time; in most professions knowledge is doubling every two or three years; and no job is forever--so being employable means being flexible and retraining regularly. Accelerated Learning into the 21st Century contains a simple but proven plan that delivers the one key skill that every working person, every parent and student must master, and every teacher should teach: it's learning how to learn. The theory of eight multiple intelligences (linguistic, logical-mathematical, visual-spatial, kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalist) developed by Howard Gardner at Harvard University provides a foundation for the six-step MASTER-Mind system to facilitate learning (an acronym for Mind, Acquire, Search, Trigger, Exhibit, and Review), and is enhanced by the latest findings on the value of emotion and memory on the process of learning. Combined with motivational stories of success applying these principles, and putting forth a clear vision of how the United States can dramatically improve the education system to remain competitive in the next century, Accelerated Learning into the 21st Century is a dynamic tool for self-improvement by individuals as diverse as schoolchildren and corporate executives.

Self-improvement book for students Dr. M.N. Roy was the first surgeon to perform laparoscopic surgery in Bihar and is the author of several Medical books. This self-improvement book for students is the culmination of long hard research into the five factors which control our way of life and also steer us towards success if we exercise it in a disciplined fashion. Body (B), Mind (M), Emotions (E), Time (T) and Routine (R) make up this five-letter acronym BMETR. In the book, the doctor-author goes on to explain how each one of these elements, functions are connected. The Body holds the rest of the METR within itself and acts as a factory for all critical mechanisms. The Mind and the psyche activate our cognitive thinking, thereby, stimulating our Emotions by which we respond from time to time. Time, as we all know, is the only element that is beyond our control as we have to function according to it. However, what is in our control is the power to manage this time through Routine. Dr. Roy wishes to facilitate the youth in making rational decisions regarding their lives through this self-improvement books for young adults. He discusses in-depth about the discomforts and dilemmas that the young generation faces at the brink of their adolescence and also provide some easy solutions. He also discusses various techniques for students to excel in academics, such as SQ3R (Survey, Question and Read, Recite and Review), Mind Map and Flashcards which help young minds retain the vast and complex syllabus. The self-improvement book for students is an attempt to educate and make aware young minds, free them of their inhibitions and motivate them to reach their goals with a clear sense of direction and definition of life. Discipline, routine, pattern, time-management, concentration and meditation are some of the known yet underestimated virtues that Dr. Sinha has highlighted and emphasised in the book, to bring back our attention to these details we have unwittingly bypassed over the years. From a person who has shaped success for himself and others and has vast experience, the book is a treasure trove of knowledge, tips and tricks to master the art of life and achieve in the most systematic and certain way.
