Learning Activity: MODULE 1

1. Describe the study of exercise physiology and explain how it differs from sports physiology.

ANSWER:
Exercise physiology is the study of how the body responds and adapts to physical stress. Sport physiology is
the application of exercise physiology principles to guide training and enhance sport performance. Exercise
and sport physiology overlap significantly, and therefore are generally considered together.

2. Explain the evolution of exercise physiology as a discipline.

ANSWER:
The knowledge base that defines exercise physiology is central to the discipline of kinesiology. By the late 19th
century, interest in physical training, physical education, and sports began to emerge in the United States. By
the beginning of the 20th century, exercise physiology was being included in college physical education degree
programs, and by the end of World War II had become an integral part of the curriculum. Today exercise
physiology has developed into a major field of study with many sub-areas of investigation. Although the
information and knowledge base in exercise physiology has increased in depth and scope, it is grounded in the
fundamentals of biology and human physiology. The basic goal of an exercise physiology course designed for
the kinesiology major should provide the student with an understanding of how the physiological systems
involved in physical activity respond to an acute bout of exercise, and how these systems adapt to various
modes of exercise training and environmental conditions.

3. As future P.E. teachers and fitness advocates, what involvement do you foresee 5 years from
now? How can you be able to impart exercise and sports physiology to yourself, family, students
and in your community?

ANSWER:As a future P.E teacher I will Improve how to communicate and socialize with people in an effective
way more than ever. When I’ll start working, I will encounter people from range of different backgrounds,
each with different personalities.

To impart exercise and sports physiology to myself and to others, I will explain to them the benefits of it ,like
