Goals Giving information about the functioning of cells, tissues, and organs; is aimed to teach the physiology of energy, heart, and circulation, respiratory, nervous, hormonal, digestive, and excretory systems and to teach the relationship of these systems with exercise.
Course Content This course; Classification and bioenergy of exercises, Adaptation of cardiovascular system to exercise, Adaptation of respiratory system to exercise, Adaptation of neuromuscular system to exercise, Adaptation of blood and exercise, Endocrine system and adaptation to exercise, General repetition, Adaptation to exercises in different temperature conditions, Adaptations to exercises in hypo and hyperbaric conditions, Contraindications and restrictive conditions for exercise, Exercise tests in laboratory and field conditions, Athlete Nutrition and ergogenic substances, Doping and over-training in sports, General review and discussion; includes topics.
