Tematika

Sport activity is more and more popular among the population, the number of recreational and competitive athletes increased significantly in recent years. Furthermore, the longer life expectancy means more senior athletes with unique requirements as well. Global warming including heat waves and elevated humidity is challenging for athletes, however, maintaining normal body temperature is crucial for physiological processes. Students applying for the course can learn the importance of temperature in sport, the mechanisms regulating body temperature (e.g., TRP ion channels) and novel theories of thermoregulation during physical activity. They will hear about the thermophysiological effects of sport diet and doping use and their consequences on the body and sport performance. Furthermore, students can learn about the effects of extreme heat load on physical training, especially in sports with high risk of hypothermia (e.g., swimming, alpine hiking). We will further discuss significance of heat therapies in regeneration after sport performance, and about age-related changes influencing physical activity. Beside of theoretical background, case studies will be discussed with the students.
