The lectures will present selected topics of integrative physiology applied to exercise and sports. By focusing on specific aspects of human physiology and a quantitative approach the course aims at fostering the understanding of the control mechanisms, the integrated function of organs and systems towards the maintenance of the body homeostasis. The course will focus on the acute responses to exercise and the adaptive responses to training.
During this year the following topics will be covered:
- sex-related differences in acute responses to exercise and frame adaptations to training
- pregnancy, sport and physical activity
- use of energy substrates during activities: acute and adaptive effects of training intensity
- gastrointestinal disturbances in the endurance athlete
