Biomechanics and Exercise Physiology - Quantitative Modeling

Informationen zum Autor Arthur T. Johnson Klappentext Using numerous worked examples to demonstrate what and when to calculate, this text covers more than just the fundamentals of exercise physiology, it demonstrates the vast amount of physiological material that can be quantitatively predicted and describes how to translate this information into applications. The book examines the energetics of exercise, biomechanics, circulation, respiration, and thermoregulation, and includes numerical examples and homework problems. With an emphasis on quantitative description, it includes tables and illustrations which make this book helpful for estimating magnitudes, determining trends, and illustrating concepts.
