From the Publisher:
Bioenergetics. Concepts of cell metabolism - bioenergetics - are integrated into every chapter and serve as a framework for discussion.
Original research by the authors covers topics such as:
lactic acid metabolism and the lactate shuttle
the role of the mitochondrial reticulum in metabolism
the crossover concept in utilization of fuel during exercise
physiological and biochemical responses to exercise training at high altitude
the molecular biology of muscular adaptation to training
the use of steroids and other ergogenic aids in altering human performance
muscle biology and plasticity
the role of exercise in diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of coronary heart disease
More than 300 illustrations with clear captions help students understand key concepts
In-depth discussions of how genetic endowment, state of maturation, nutrition, training, and environment affect human performance
Useful appendices cover Symbols and Abbreviations and Units and Measures
The latest research on the stable isotope and the 'Crossover Concept.'
New information from biochemistry and molecular biology on the 'Lactate Shuttle-both 'Cell-Cell' and 'Intra-Cellular Lactate Shuttles.'
More on the molecular biology of exercise and training effects on muscle and muscle protein synthesis.
Up-to-date information on Physical Activity and Health utilizing information contained in the Surgeon General's Report.
The latest information on environmental stresses such as heat and altitude.
The most current information on training techniques and use of supplements.
