ESS 342 - Exercise Physiology (WI)

Semester Hours: 3
(Writing-Intensive)
A review of the physiologic response to vigorous physical activity and training. An understanding of the systemic and metabolic benefits to a lifestyle of physical activity as well as training for vigorous sport activity will be developed. Physiological adaptations brought on by specificity of training for anaerobic and aerobic performance will also be addressed. This course emphasizes the investigation of the physiological components of human movement. Concepts relating to neuromuscular, metabolic, circulatory, and respiratory physiology are discussed in lecture, including theoretical and practical applications of exercise and training principles.

Pre-requisites: GEN 112 - Composition II: Argumentation and Research , and grades of C or above earned in ESS 143 - Introduction to Exercise Science , BIO 211 - Human Anatomy and Physiology I (4 semester hours) , and BIO 212 - Human Anatomy and Physiology II (4 semester hours) .
