Prerequisite(s): PEMJ 320 or departmental approval. Students develop a comprehensive understanding of how the muscular and somatic nervous systems function in a coordinated manner during acute exercise, along with adaptations in these systems as a result of chronic exercise training. Additionally students analyze interactions between the neuromuscular and energy systems in the context of exercise-induced fatigue. Where applicable, students observe neuromuscular responses to exercise in the human performance laboratory and discuss practical implications to a clinical or training setting.
