EXERCISE PHYSIOLOGY
Exercise Physiology is the branch of Human physiology that studies how the body adapts to physical movement. In this field of medicine, clinicians study both the acute and chronic effects of exercise on the body. It was believed to have originated in ancient Greece, by Herodicus and Galen, respectively. Topics studied in exercise physiology include, human energy transfer, human energy expenditure, evaluation of energy-generating capacities, the pulmonary system, the cardiovascular system, the neuromuscular system, hormones, training methods, environmental effects on physiology, and ergogenic aids.
