Course Objectives Neural control of movement, effects of exercise on immune system, endocrine system and metabolic responses, exercise training in healthy individuals and in patients with different disorders will be comprehensively reviewed.
Course Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • Analyzes the neural control mechanisms of movement and neuromuscular adaptation processes in healthy individuals and in various disease groups.
  • In acute and chronic exercise scenarios, evaluates the physiological interactions between the immune system, the endocrine system, and metabolic responses in light of the current literature
  • In clinical populations with different pathologies, identifies patient-specific physiological limits and risk factors while taking into account the systemic effects of exercise
  • Designs evidence-based, advanced exercise training programs for the purposes of maintaining and improving health and rehabilitating patients from illness, in accordance with the principles of clinical reasoning.
Course Content Effects of exercise on immune system and endocrine system, metabolic system responses, aerobic and anaerobic power training, effects of exercise and physical activity in different environments and clinical situations, in healthy people, athletes and people with different cardiopulmonary problems.
