Physiology of Sport and Exercise, Eighth Edition With HKPropel
Access, continues its legacy as a top physiology textbook and
favorite of instructors and students alike. Combining research with
extensive visual aids, this resource offers a simple way for
students to explore the body’s response to various types and
intensities of exercise and sports. Written by a team of
distinguished researchers, all past presidents of the American
College of Sports Medicine, this eighth edition has been updated
based on the most recent standards and guidelines in the field of
exercise physiology. The text builds upon the previous edition’s
high standards for illustrations, photos, and medical artwork with
a refreshed, more sophisticated look to encourage a deep
understanding of complex topics. Multimedia components delivered
through HKPropel include 26 animations that offer a dynamic way to
experience physiological concepts and 66 audio clips that offer
explanations of elaborate physiological processes. Leaders in the
field help students connect theoretical and practical concepts in
27 video clips. Learning assessments and key term flash cards offer
additional interactive opportunities to explore the content, and QR
codes throughout the text notify students when complementary
digital components are available. Physiology of Sport and Exercise,
Eighth Edition, features the following enhancements based on the
latest research in the field: Additional information on cellular
signaling and molecular adaptations Expanded content on obesity and
sports nutrition Reorganized and expanded chapters on energy
expenditure and exercise prescription that make the content more
accessible to students Extensive updates on important topics,
including bioinformatics and big data, reading research articles,
molecular mechanisms of increased protein synthesis, muscle cramps,
and mitochondrial oxidation Updated Research Perspective sidebars
that emphasize emerging findings in the field and a Research
Perspectives Finder to help students locate key content quickly As
in previous editions, readability and ease of understanding make
Physiology of Sport and Exercise different from other physiology
resources. Unique learning aids, including chapter-opening outlines
and review boxes throughout each chapter, will help students focus
on the major concepts addressed. Study questions and a list of key
terms at the end of each chapter provide opportunities for recall
and self-assessment. A comprehensive glossary and lists of common
abbreviations and conversions provide easy reference for students.
Physiology of Sport and Exercise has been a pivotal textbook in the
field of exercise physiology. Through this edition’s dynamic and
interactive learning activities, easy-to-follow layouts, and
research-oriented content enriched with visual supplements,
students and instructors will find this an invaluable resource for
their continued education. Note: A code for accessing HKPropel is
included with this ebook.

La quinta edicion de Fisiologia del Deporte y el Ejercicio, el
libro de texto preferido en los programas de estudio de fisiologia
del ejercicio, ha sido completamente actualizada, tanto en su
contenido como en su diseno grafico. Todos los autores son
investigadores destacados y expresidentes del American College of
Sports Medicine. Su amplia experiencia ha permitido conformar un
libro con un contenido tecnico de excelencia pero que conserva, a
la vez, un formato facilmente comprensible para el estudiante,
caracteristicas que han llevado a esta obra a ser la elegida por
los docentes y los alumnos. Esta edicion se ha redisenado para
conseguir un aspecto visual mas atractivo, que facilite a los
estudiantes el proceso de aprendizaje. Las nuevas fotografias e
ilustraciones tienen mayor detalle y claridad, y muestran de forma
mas precisa el funcionamiento del organismo y sus respuestas a la
actividad fisica. El texto tambien se ha redactado nuevamente a fin
de que se integre con las figuras, lo que facilita la comprension
de los temas expuestos. Ademas de las nuevas ilustraciones, el
contenido de Fisiologia del Deporte y el Ejercicio se ha
actualizado conforme a las ultimas investigaciones, e incluye: *
Nuevo texto en los capitulos sobre entrenamiento de la resistencia,
que comprende los principios sobre el entrenamiento de la fuerza
basados en la informacion de la ACSM de 2009 y nuevas secciones
sobre la fuerza, el entrenamiento de la estabilidad y el
entrenamiento intermitente de alta intensidad * Los capitulos sobre
metabolismo y control hormonal se han reorganizado y actualizado
por completo conforme a los comentarios recibidos de los docentes,
a fin de ayudar a los estudiantes a comprender mejor estos sistemas
complejos * Nuevos contenidos sobre el acido lactico como fuente de
energia, calambres musculares, obesidad infantil, utilizacion de
sustratos y respuesta endocrina al ejercicio y envejecimiento de
los vasos sanguineos * Cobertura actualizada de las funciones
cardiacas centrales y perifericas, la triada de las atletas y el
ciclo menstrual * Nuevas investigaciones sobre los efectos de la
actividad fisica sobre la salud, que incluyen los datos
internacionales sobre la incidencia de las enfermedades
cardiovasculares y la obesidad Una de las caracteristicas
tradicionalmente apreciadas de este libro es su claridad en la
exposicion de los temas. Esta edicion continua ofreciendo un
tratamiento integral de la compleja relacion entre la fisiologia
humana y el ejercicio, conservando a la vez un enfoque ameno y que
consigue captar el interes del alumno. Sus caracteristicas
pedagogicas singulares permiten a los estudiantes adquirir
conocimientos a medida que descubren la profundidad y la amplitud
de este campo de estudio fascinante. El diseno del libro, con
secciones introductorias en cada capitulo y recuadros de revision,
ayudara a los alumnos a centrarse en los conceptos principales. Las
preguntas y las palabras clave ubicadas al final de cada capitulo
los ayudaran a repasar y evaluar sus conocimientos. Un completo
glosario y una lista de las abreviaturas frecuentes y las tablas de
conversion represenntan un apoyo adicional para las practicas de
laboratorio. Fisiologia del Deporte y el Ejercicio es, sin duda, el
recurso mas completo y mas actualizado, e incluye informacion sobre
las investigaciones mas recientes en un formato facilmente
comprensible. Estas caracteristicas facilitan a los estudiantes el
aprendizaje de las increibles capacidades del organismo para
desempenar ejercicios y deportes de diversos tipos y con diferente
intensidad, adaptarse a situaciones de tension, y mejorar sus
capacidades fisiologicas.
