EXSC 402 - Exercise Physiology II

Institution:

Northeastern Illinois University

Subject:

Exercise Science

Description:

The course provides advanced instruction in the functioning of the respiratory, cadiovascular and skeletal muscular systems at rest and during exercise. Specifically, the course will provide instruction in pulmonary ventilation, myocardial functioning, circulatory response and skeletal muscle contraction, as well as neuroendocrine control of these processes, at rest and during exercise. Additionally, the exercise-specific application of these physiological processes will be discussed in reference to strength/endurance exercise training adaptations, neuro-muscular fatigue, ergogenic aids (i.e., human performance enhacement substances), gender-related performance differences, and youth exercise/performance.
