Exercise Physiology
This is a program that focuses on the scientific study of the physiological
processes involved in physical or motor activity, including sensorimotor
interactions, response mechanisms, and the effects of injury, disease, and
disability. Includes instruction in muscular and skeletal anatomy; molecular and
cellular basis of muscle contraction; fuel utilization; neurophysiology of motor
mechanics; systemic physiological responses (respiration, blood flow, endocrine
secretions, and others); fatigue and exhaustion; muscle and body training;
physiology of specific exercises and activities; physiology of injury; and the
effects of disabilities and disease.
