| Summary |
"The twelfth edition of this book has undergone major revisions to improve the overall quality of the book. Identical to all previous editions, this edition of Exercise Physiology: Theory and Application to Fitness and Performance is intended for students interested in exercise physiology, medicine, clinical exercise physiology, exercise science, sports performance, physical therapy, and physical education. The objective of this text is to provide an up-to-date understanding of the physiology of exercise, health-benefits of exercise, and the physiology of exercise performance. To address these topics, the book is divided into three sections: (1) Physiology of exercise; (2) Physiology of health and fitness; and (3) Physiology of performance. In reference to the impact of regular exercise on health and fitness (i.e., Exercise is Medicine), the book provides numerous clinical applications including detailed discussions about exercise as therapy for patients with chronic diseases and the latest information on the mechanisms responsible for the exercise-induced protection against chronic diseases"-- Provided by publisher |
