This second edition of Exercise Physiology: For Health and Sports Performance brings together all the essential human anatomy and applied physiology that students of exercise science, physical education, and sports coaching will need to know.Written in a friendly, accessible style, and containing a wide range of features to help develop understanding, this book provides a complete one-stop shop for exercise physiology broken down into three fundamental parts: foundations of exercise physiology, applied exercise physiology, and the new Part 3, exercise prescription.With Parts 1 and 2 examining the theory, testing, and practical applications of exercise physiology, the new Part 3 reflects the changes in the field by increasing focus on physical activity and diverse populations and helps provides a more complete course text for any exercise physiology course at universities around the world.This newly revised book is key reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students in the fields of exercise physiology, sports performance, sports therapy, fitness and personal training, and other related sport science courses.
