OVERVIEW

Integrated course of Training Theory and Methodology, Sport Physiology and Statistic.

AIMS AND CONTENT

LEARNING OUTCOMES

In the Physiology module, the physiological aspects related mainly to sports exercise are explored in depth, in particular: changes in cardiac and vascular activity, the reaction to physical exercise, variations in respiratory parameters and ventilation control; muscle metabolism, endocrinological changes induced by exercise, thermoregulation, physiological activity in extreme conditions (in water and at high altitude). In the Training Theory and Methodology module you will learn the main techniques and methodological approaches relating to training in various sports (top level, scholastic, for leisure, for health), with insights into the biomechanics of the apparatus locomotor and its influence on training, the bioenergetic model and training, power and capacity parameters of bioenergetic mechanisms, definition, training program and objectives, load concepts, supercompensation, measurement of workload, coordination and conditional abilities, training of strength and speed, structuring of a training session. The teaching of Statistics aims to provide the knowledge necessary for the analysis of the methodological processes of functional evaluation of the athlete, with adherence to application in the professional field.

AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES

This course, starting from the knowledge of sport physiology, exercise science and statistics, will lead the student  to understand: the human body adaptation mechanisms during different types of physical activities; the appropriate methodologies and exercises based to the training targets; the proper training program, diversified depending on Sport typology and fitness level of the subject; the objective analysis and interpretation of the training results and athlete evaluation.

TEACHING METHODS

Please consult the teaching methods indicated in the sheet of each module.

Any Student with documented Specific Learning Disorders (SLD), or with any special needs, should contact the Lecturer(s) and to the dedicated SLD Representative in the Department before class begins, in order to liaise and arrange the specific teaching methods so that the learning aims and outcomes may be met.
