Class Physiology of Effort

The exercise physiology is a multi-disciplinary knowledge area, with requirement in the field of Anatomy and biochemistry, prior to an integrated understanding of health-related physical activity, development and performance athletic.

The exercise physiology studies the structural and functional changes of the human body when exposed to the exercise. Studies the processes of adaptation related to physical exercise on motor tasks providing foundations for the intervention of professional of physical education, Sports Training and exercise and well-being.

1. Introduction to exercise physiology;

2. Bioenergetics.

3. Introduction to the study of fatigue;

4. Respiratory regulation during exercise;

5. Cardiovascular control during exercise;

6. Cardio respiratory adaptations to training;

7. Hormone regulation of the year;

8. Renal adaptations to stress;

9. Regulation of hydro-electrolytic balance in effort;

10. Thermal regulation and exercise;

11. Exercise in hypobaric environments and hyperbaric;

12. Stress Physiology in child and young.

T (expository, exploratory) and TP classes apply learning, with problem solving and group work, understanding, applying more complex concepts. Using b-learning system (moodle). Continuous assessment: 4 Final Tests (TF), 4 Initial Tests (TI), 2 Group assignment: reading, summary, presentation (TG). Final grade = TF 45% + TI 20% + TG 35%. Final classification of each subject set > or = to 9.5 values, the grade of the TF and TI > or = to 7.5 values ¿¿(if not verified, the student may perform up to two recoveries, for a maximum grade of 7.5 values, with weighted average > = 9.5 values), 70% of presence of classes T and TP. Resource exam evaluation: Written test (0 to 20 points), mandatory oral test. Classification written test > or = 9.5 values, a mandatory oral test. Final classification of the oral exam. Final grade > or = 10 values: student approval in this UC. (*) subject to approval by the CP of the Faculty
