Fatigue in sport and exercise
Phillips, Shaun
Fatigue in sport and exercise Shaun Phillips. - London ; New York Routledge/Taylor & Francis Group, 2015 - xiii, 256 p. ill.
What is fatigue? -- Defining and measuring fatigue in sport andexercise -- What causes (and what does not cause) fatigue in sport exercise? -- Energy depletion -- Metabolic acidosis -- Dehydration and hyperthermia -- Potassium and calcium -- Central fatigue, and central regulation of performance -- Fatigue : is itthe same for everyone? -- Factors influencing the causes of fatigue -- Summary : where next?
This book surveys the research evidence into exercise-induced fatigue and discusses how knowledge of fatigue can be applied in sport and exercise contexts. The book examines the different "types" of fatigue and the difficulties of identifying which types are prevalent during different types of exercise. It introduces the fundamental science of fatigue, focusing predominantly on physiological and neuromuscular aspects, and explores key topics in detail, such as energy depletion, lactic acid, dehydration, electrolytes and minerals, and the perception of fatigue.--
