Human and Exercise Physiology

The purpose of this course is to explain the basic physiology of the different human organs, such as the cardiovascular, respiratory, renal systems, highlighting both, the functioning of the singular organs and the reciprocal influences. Homeostatic and integrative controls will be also faced at rest and as a response to physical exercise administration.

The student will develop expertise on the methodological assessments of physiological parameters and will understand the integrated physiological responses implicated in the homeostasis of the human model, especially during physical activity and sports.
