| Summary |
This book provides biochemists, sport nutritionists, and exercise physiologists with an up-to-date source on metabolic processes during exercise. Exercise Metabolism is a complete review of the literature, synthesizing the research to provide a unique perspective on the topic. And with over 975 references, it makes a valuable reference for professionals and a thorough text for graduate students in muscle metabolism. Exercise Metabolism examines in depth the mobilization and utilization of substrates during physical activity. While the focus is primarily on skeletal muscle, this complete resource also discusses the important roles of liver and adipose tissue in exercise metabolism. Exercise Metabolism is a valuable addition to the library of any exercise physiologist, biochemist, or sport nutritionist |
