Advanced Environmental Exercise PhysiologyHuman Kinetics, 2009 - Adaptation (Physiology) Using an integrative approach, Advanced Environmental Exercise Physiology is the first text to consider the human capacity to exercise in and tolerate various environments and explores how multiple systems interact during exposure and exercise in different environments. Readers will examine the major impact of each environment explored, and they will discover areas of current debate to stimulate further research. The text also helps students and professionals directly link the research to athletic and occupational situations in various environments. Through Advanced Environmental Exercise Physiology, readers will learn the following: The initial physiological responses upon exposure to an environment that a person is not adapted to How the body adapts to repeated exposure to an environment How various environments affect the ability to exercise and work Individual variability in response to stressful environments Human Kinetics' Advanced Exercise Physiology series offers books for advanced undergraduate and graduate students as well as professionals in exercise science and kinesiology. These books highlight the complex interaction of the components of the various systems both at rest and during exercise. Each text in this series offers a clear and concise explanation of the system and details how each system is affected by acute exercise and chronic exercise training. |
