Readers will learn what makes children different from adults physiologically—such as size, biochemical differences, neuromuscular differences, and lack of sexual and hormonal maturation—and the reasons for these differences. Those involved with young athletes, disease management, and health promotion will gain valuable insight into the physiologic determinants of exercise performance.\nChildrens exercise physiology is a fast-moving field. In the eight years since the first edition of this book was published, much new information has surfaced. This streamlined new edition contains 13 instead of 15 chapters, an introduction, and updated features:\n-Chapter objectives, discussion questions and research directions, and a glossary of terms promote learning.\n-A reorganized table of contents improves the flow from chapter to chapter.\n-A new final chapter covers the role of the central nervous system.\nAlso included is in-depth discussion of the determinants of aerobic fitness and VO2 kinetics and the significance of maximal aerobic power in children.\nWith improved chapters on thermoregulation and metabolic and endocrinologic responses to exercise, you can be confident youre getting the latest information with Childrens Exercise Physiology, Second Edition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Human Kinetics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44966224330805,"sku":"ByrdShop_0736051449","price":62.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780736051446_1c4c78d3-00e7-45c0-a41e-7d7707059431.jpg?v=1778706104","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/childrens-exercise-physiology-9780736051446","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
