Exercise Physiology: Theory and Application to Fitness and Performance 8th Edition by Scott Powers and Edward Howley offers a stable basis in idea illuminated by utility and efficiency models to increase understanding and to help students apply what they've discovered within the classroom and beyond.
New and updated content throughout all chapters addresses present ACSM certification classes; discussion of satellite cells as key to muscle growth and restore; comparison of cardiac and skeletal muscle; regulation of stroke volume; alterations in skeletal muscle due to train, inactivity, and growing old; and heat storage in the body throughout exercise.
New illustrations in lots of chapters exhibit the impact of body temperature on enzyme exercise, liver/blood glucose interactions, impact of pH on enzyme activity, control of glycogen breakdown, and difference between lung operation in chronic obstructive pulmonary illness vs. regular lung function.
More applications and practical information throughout include coverage of the difference between lactic acid and lactate, sport and exercise-induced disturbances in muscle acid-base balance, calculation of body temp increase during exercise, leading vs. actual causes of death, and studies of how physical activity and cardiovascular fitness are related to the risk of heart disease and death (the Harvard Alumni Study and the Aerobic Center Longitudinal Study).
New references and readings in all chapters reflect the latest research and background information and complement classic entries. The updated Online Learning Center features valuable resources for both instructors and students, including an Instructor�s Manual, Computerized Test Bank, chapter-specific PowerPoint presentation, self-quizzes, links to professional organizations, and more.
Author develops the concept of homeostasis as a theme throughout the text to demonstrate the impact of exercise on all body systems. It enhances student learning through a wealth of learning tools, including beginning-of-chapter learning objectives, outlines, and key terms; summary boxes throughout each chapter; and end-of-chapter study questions, suggested readings, and references.
Highlighting exciting and new research in exercise physiology as useful information for all career choices in the field, this text examines special topics in depth, reinforcing the text discussion and enhancing student learning, in "A Closer Look" boxes.
