Physical activity is important in our daily lives. The impact of environment, diet and nutrition, age, gender, and body composition is critical to human performance. An introduction to the physiological responses and adaptations of humans to physical activity. Considerable emphasis is given toward understanding how the body functions during exercise and adapts to long-term training. Topics related to neuromuscular, pulmonary, cardiovascular functions, and bioenergetics during resistance and aerobic training may be presented. Factors affecting these organ systems during exercise, such as altitude, environmental pollution, performance enhancing drugs and malnutrition will be discussed.
