Basic Exercise Physiology Clinical and Laboratory Perspectives
Represents a comprehensive tool for assessing human performance and provides an excellent analysis on the role of the different modes of exerciseOffers comprehensive coverage of the basic laboratory procedures for exercise training in health and diseaseProvides a comprehensive source of information for instructors and students interested in practical laboratory techniques related to the field of exercise physiologyExplores testing for oxygen consumption, anaerobic and aerobic fitness, musculoskeletal fitness, pulmonary function, body composition and ECGThis book reviews the assessment of human performance and the role of different exercise modes both in a laboratory and clinical setting. Details of how to successfully perform basic laboratory procedures for exercise training in health and disease, as well as how to apply non-invasive measurements in exercise physiology are provided. Chapters cover how to appropriately use a range of measures in assessing pulmonary function, anaerobic function and oxygen uptake. Techniques for cardiopulmonary rehabilitation and the mechanisms associated with thermoregulation are also described. Interactive exercises enable readers to easily assimilate key concepts and develop a thorough understanding of the topic.Basic Exercise Physiology provides both trainees and professional healthcare staff interested in exercise physiology with a detailed and practically applicable resource on the topic.Table of ContentsIntroduction to exercise physiologyMetabolismOxygen uptake and anaerobic performancesPulmonary functionBlood pressureCardiovascular functionAgingSkeletal musclesThermoregulationExercise effects on the Immune SystemExercise in hostile environmentEpigenetics in exerciseExercise equipmentAppendix 1: measurements in exercise physiologyAppendix 2: Report formats
