The aim of the course is to introduce the possibility of bioenergy cost of physical activity as the starting tool for
assessing the relationship between intervention and its effect for the needs of both the management of sports
training and for primary and secondary prevention in selected patient groups. In particular, the energy cost of basic
physical activities such as walking, running, swimming and cycling will be explored.
