exercisephysiology's Podcast

This podcast EXP is all about exercise physiology. Your guide is Dr. John Higgins MD: physician, professor, and marathoner, who takes you step by step through the major cores concepts of exercise physiology, explaining exactly how things work and why. Ever wondered how different types of exercise affect your body in the short and long-term? After starting with an overview and the history of exercise physiology, we will get into the acute and chronic effects (adaptations) of exercise on various physiological systems: nervous, skeletal, muscular, respiratory, cardiovascular, etc. In addition, how the exercise environment can effect responses is reviewed. Special topics such as hydration, and the female athlete triad will make it to these podwaves, and weâll try to make some sense of the latest exercise physiology journal publications and ACSM guidelines.
