Biochemistry of exercise and training

This book provides a broadly based intoduction to those aspects of biochemistry relevant to exercise science. For students of biochemistry, physiology and sport science, this book will help to develop a solid undersanding of the fundamentals of biochemistry. Throughout, the focus is on physiological chemistry, dealing with those biochemical processes that determine the metabolic response to exercise, and the way in which these responses are influenced by training. The authors have taken account of the rapid advances being made in the field of physiological chemistry, and by providing a broad understanding of the fundamental concepts, the reader should be able to integrate these future developments with their existing knowledge of the area.
