Description

The purpose of this course is to allow the student the opportunity to further understand the responses and adaptations of the cardiovascular and pulmonary systems as well as skeletal muscles to exercise and training. Furthermore, the student will be exposed to the primary physiological factors that determine anaerobic and endurance performance in athletes. This will provide the student with the necessary background information for the majority of his/her cognate classes in the human performance, clinical, nutrition, and community physical activity cognate areas. This critical core course emphasizes both acute and chronic physiological adaptations associated with human physical activity and their influence upon performance.
