In addition to the improved artwork, Physiology of Sport and Exercise, Fifth Edition , features new and updated content based on the latest research in the field, including the following: - A complete rewrite of the chapters on resistance training, including updated strength training principles based on the 2009 ACSM position stand and new sections on core strength, stability training, and high-intensity interval training (HIT) - A full update and reorganization, based on instructors' feedback, of the chapters on metabolism and hormonal control to aid students' comprehension of these complex systems - New content on lactic acid as a fuel source, muscle cramps, childhood obesity, substrate utilization and endocrine response to exercise, and vascular aging - Updated coverage of central and peripheral cardiac functions, the female athlete triad, and the menstrual cycle - New research on effects of physical activity on health, including the addition of international data on the incidence of cardiovascular disease and obesity Ease of reading and understanding has been the cornerstone of this popular text. The fifth edition of Physiology of Sport and Exercise continues to offer comprehensive coverage of the complex relationship between human physiology and exercise while maintaining an engaging and student-friendly tone. Unique learning features allow students to build their knowledge as they discover the depth and breadth of this fascinating field of study. The book's accessible layout, including chapter-opening outlines and review boxes found throughout each chapter, will help students focus on the major concepts addressed.

  • Great buy and is definitely worth the money I paid for.

    This textbook is informative and found it easy to read. I'm majoring in Kinesiology and knew a few things about anatomy and physiology, but nothing about training and how it affects the body. I enjoy the book and learned alot from it.
