Aim of the course

Last update: prof. MUDr. Jan Heller, CSc. (03.11.2023)

The aim of this subject is introduction to the reactions of the human organism to stress andadaptation processes occurring in the body in connection with training load.

Knowledge:

The student acquires knowledge of the biological basis of physical fitness, adaptation to movement load and genetic conditioning of adaptation, is introduced to the manifestations of adaptation at the cellular level, the principles of energy metabolism and the metabolic characteristics of load according to the intensity of metabolism and duration and the influence of the histochemical composition of skeletal muscle on the energetics of muscle work. The student acquires knowledge about homeostatic, transport and regulatory mechanisms during physical load, about applications of physiological principles in training, about physiological aspects of loading in ontogeny and in specific population groups, about internal and external factors influencing the performance of an individual, about the health significance of physical activity and is introduced to principles of basic examinations in exercise physiology.

 

Skills

The student will be able to define the basic principles of the physiology of body load and adaptations apply the knowledge of the physiology of body load and adaptation to training,use the diagnostic procedures of the physiology of physical exertion and evaluate the results achieved as prerequisites for fitness and sports performance, to specify differences in physiological reactions and adaptations in individual population groups, independently perform and evaluate simple functional tests.

 

Competence

The student is competent to use the acquired knowledge of the physiology of physical exertion and adaptation for their application and connection with subsequent subjects such as sports training and sports specialization;use the acquired information in everyday practice and apply the knowledge of the physiology of body load and adaptation to training;use the diagnostic procedures of the physiology of physical exertion and evaluate the results achieved as prerequisites for fitness and sports performance;to specify differences in physiological reactions and adaptations in individual population groups, is competent to perform and evaluate independently simple functional tests.
