Thoroughly updated with all the most recent findings, this Seventh Edition guides you to the latest understanding of nutrition, energy transfer, and exercise training and their relationship to human performance. This new edition continues to provide excellent coverage of exercise physiology, uniting the topics of energy expenditure and capacity, molecular biology, physical conditioning, sports nutrition, body composition, weight control, and more. The updated full-color art program adds visual appeal and improves understanding of key topics. A companion website includes over 30 animations of key exercise physiology concepts; the full text online; a quiz bank; references; appendices; information about microscope technologies; a timeline of notable events in genetics; a list of Nobel Prizes in research related to cell and molecular biology; the scientific contributions of thirteen outstanding female scientists; an image bank; a Brownstone test generator; PowerPoint(R) lecture outlines; and image-only PowerPoint(R) slides.
Physiology of Sports and Exercise Science is an academic text that studies how the human body responds and adapts to physical activity and exercise. It explores the functions of major systems—muscular, cardiovascular, respiratory, and endocrine—in relation to performance, endurance, and recovery. The book also examines energy metabolism, fatigue, thermoregulation, and the effects of training on physiological systems. By understanding these mechanisms, athletes, coaches, and sports scientists can optimize training programs, enhance performance, prevent injuries, and promote overall health, making it a foundational resource in sports science and exercise physiology. - Key Systems: Muscular, cardiovascular, respiratory, and endocrine systems. - Energy & Metabolism: Covers ATP production, energy pathways, and fatigue management. - Physiological Adaptation: How training affects strength, endurance, and recovery. - Environmental Effects: Thermoregulation, hydration, and altitude impacts on performance. - Applications: Designing training programs, improving performance, injury prevention, and health promotion.
ere's the first research-based text that integrates key topics in the field of exercise and sports nutrition. It is organized to clearly present information about nutrient digestion, absorption and assimilation presented first, followed by discussions on how nutrients provide energy for the body.
