MASH 643 - Exercise Physiology

3
This course is designed to introduce sport and health psychology students to the concepts of human physiology while applying the concepts to sport, exercise, and training. Students will learn the systems of the human body and will learn how the systems interact and result in human performance. This course provides a theoretical basis for understanding the body’s physiological responses to sport and exercise. The course investigates how the systems of the body (muscular, respiratory, and cardiovascular, for example) function with energy production, which is used to fuel sport, exercise, and training. Emphasis will be placed on the practical application of exercise physiology principles to sport and health settings
