"Physiology of Sport and Exercise, Eighth Edition, introduces you to the fields of sport and exercise physiology. Our goal is to build on the knowledge that you developed during basic course work in human anatomy and physiology and to apply those principles in studying how the body (1) performs and responds to the added demands of an acute bout of exercise, and (2) adapts to repeated bouts of exercise, i.e., exercise training. The eighth edition of Physiology of Sport and Exercise maintains the previous edition's high standard for illustrations, photos, and medical artwork. In addition, the text is augmented with animations, audio, and video clips, provided online in the student web study guide and separately for instructors. The new edition also includes fully updated "Research Perspective" elements introduced in the last edition that highlight interesting current research. Each chapter in the book begins with a chapter outline with page numbers to help you locate material. Also noted in the chapter outline are the web study guide activities relating to each section of the chapter. Each chapter begins with a brief story that explores a real-world application of the concepts presented"--

Since its first published edition more than 30 years ago, the BASES (British Association of Sport and Exercise Sciences) Physiological Testing Guidelines have represented the leading knowledge base of current testing methodology for sport and exercise scientists. Sport and exercise physiologists conduct physiological assessments that have proven validity and reliability, both in laboratory and sport-specific contexts. A wide variety of test protocols have been developed, adapted and refined to support athletes of all abilities reach their full potential. This book is a comprehensive guide to these protocols and to the key issues relating to physiological testing. With contributions from leading specialist sport physiologists and covering a wide range of mainstream sports in terms of ethical, practical and methodological issues, this volume represents an essential resource for sport-specific exercise testing in both research and applied settings. This new edition draws on the authors’ experience of supporting athletes from many sports through several Olympic cycles to achieve world leading performances. While drawing on previous editions, it is presented in a revised format matching the sport groupings used in elite sport support within the UK sport institutes. Building on the underpinning general procedures, these specific chapters are supported by appropriate up-to-date case studies in the supporting web resources.
