Indicative Content |
Acute responses to exercise
Acute cardiovascular, respiratory and metabolic responses to exercise
|
Adaptations to exercise training
Cardiovascular, respiratory and metabolic adaptations to exercise training
|
Physiological demands
Physiological demands of sports and activities; patterns of energy demand and contributions of different metabolic pathways to energy production

Integrated physiological responses
Integrated physiological responses such as fatigue, detraining and overtraining; and the consideration of these in training programme design
|
Physiological measurements
Measurement of physiological responses to exercise such as variables indicating contributions of aerobic and anaerobic metabolism to energy production, generation of power, exercise capacities, and haemotological markers of metabolism.
|
Data collection and interpretation
Principles of recording, analysis, and interpretation of results of physiological measurements
|
Scientific communication
Principles of accurate and audience-appropriate communication of scientific information and the results of investigations.
