BTEC Level 3 Sport & Exercise Science Unit 2: Functional Anatomy | 40-Page Workbook

DESCRIPTION

Save planning time with a complete, fully editable 40-page student workbook for Pearson BTEC Level 3 National Sport and Exercise Science – Unit 2: Functional Anatomy.

This structured workbook supports learners through the key anatomical systems and movement concepts required for Unit 2, including the cardiovascular system, respiratory system, skeletal system, muscular system and movement analysis.

Designed for use throughout the unit, the workbook gives students one organised place to develop their knowledge, apply anatomy to sport and exercise, complete structured activities and prepare for external assessment.
