- Description
- Exercise Physiology: Australia New Zealand is intended for students interested in exercise physiology, clinical exercise physiology, human performance, kinesiology, sports and exercise science, physical therapy and physical education. The overall objective of this text is to provide the student with an up-to-date understanding of the physiology of exercise. This text contains numerous clinical applications, including exercise tests to evaluate cardiorespiratory fitness and information on exercise training for improvements in health-related physical fitness and sports performance. Continuing the legacy of the American editions of this text, the central theme of the book remains the regulation of homeostasis during exercise. However Exercise Physiology: Australia and New Zealand builds on the foundation of the original text and provides context for students studying in Australia and New Zealand and academics teaching courses in these countries. While the core concepts of exercise physiology remain constant across the world, this local edition has allowed us to make the text more relevant and engaging for students studying in Australia and New Zealand. From making examples more applicable by reflecting sports that are played here, to considering both the historically rich and current research produced in both countries, and by including local statistics, guidelines and units of measurement, we hope that this edition of the text will be the best resource for students studying exercise physiology in Australia and New Zealand.
