Oxygen Uptake Kinetics In Sport, Exercise And Medicine

In recent years there has been an enormous increase in the study of the features of the VO2 kinetic response to exercise physiologists, this is the first text entirely dedicated to this topic. It includes material in the following areas: an historical overview of research in VO2 kinetics; practical guidance on the measurement of VO2 kinetics for research or diagnosis; the practical application of research in VO2 kinetics in the understanding of exercise tolerance and athletic performance; and the effect of age, fitness and disease on VO2 kinetics
By bringing together cutting-edge research with guidance on the assessment and significance of oxygen uptake kinetics in a range of practical settings, this book represents an invaluable resource for students and researchers in exercise physiology, as well as for respiratory physiologists and pulmonary clinicians.
