Learning Objectives

The course aims to provide an advanced understanding of the core principles and topics of Sport Physiology. The acute responses to exercise and functional adaptations of the body during exercise and during sports training will be analyzed. Acute responses and adaptations of the body during physical activity in different environmental and physiological conditions will also be considered.

Program

Motor control, reflexive, rhythmic and voluntary movements. Locomotion. Thermoregulation: physiological responses and adaptations to exercise in a hot and cold environment. Muscular, circulatory and respiratory responses and adaptations to exercise and training. Hormonal responses to exercise, hydro saline balance, glucose and lipid metabolism. Physiological responses and adaptations to apnea and altitude. Physical activity and children. Physical activity and the elderly. Ergogenic aids for sports performance.

Learning Achievements (Dublin Descriptors)

In agreement with the Dublin Descriptors all students must satisfy the following requirements:

1- KNOWLEDGE AND CAPACITY OF UNDERSTANDING: the student must be able to set a logical and complete discussion about theoretical aspects of the Sport Physiology and to make connections among the treated topics;

2- CAPACITY TO APPLY KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING: the student must be able to apply the acquired knowledge to the discussion of different issues within Physiology of Sport.

3- JUDGEMENT AUTONOMY: the student must make independent decisions and choices about different aspects inherent to Physiology of Sport.

4- COMMUNICATION  SKILLS: the student must be able to communicate, clearly and comprehensively, the acquired knowledge, using an appropriate language and scientific terms;

5- LEARNING ABILITY: the student must be able to analyze and understand scientific texts about Physiology of Sport and to use them for study and research.
