Topic

These days, it is apparent in almost every age group that the number of people dedicated to healthy lifestyle (including physical exercise) is increasing. Simultaneously, the list of sport activities available in the university is expanding as well, consequently there are more and more students doing sports on an amateur or higher level. Primary aim of this course is to unfold the exercise- and sports-related aspects of physiology that have not been discussed during the regular physiology class, however these facts might be not only fascinating for students involved in sport activities or treatment of athletes later on but they have very important theoretical and practical significance as well.
