By their very nature, sports competitions push the human body to its limits. In this program, we examine four bodily systems—skeletal, muscular, respiratory, and circulatory—to demonstrate how our anatomy enables us to be physically active. Extensive computer graphics and sports footage provide a comprehensive overview of the subject. Viewable/printable educational resources are available online. (30 minutes)
