Prerequisite: Limited to students accepted into the Master of Science in Exercise Physiology Program. Concurrent enrollment in KINS 709 & KINS 784. Credit cannot be earned in KINS 708 and KINS 708A.

The purpose of this course is to enable the exercise/rehabilitation professional to gain an advanced and detailed understanding of the responses of physiological systems to acute exercise and how the repeated application of exercise results in adaptations within physiological systems (i.e. training adaptation). Emphasis will be placed on the metabolic/bioenergetic, cardiovascular, neuromuscular, and pulmonary responses to acute and chronic exercise (in normal and other environmental conditions), the interaction of these system responses, and to dispel any myths that might relate to exercise training. The student will also be provided opportunities to engage in critical analyses of the current literature regarding these topics.
