The objectives of this course are to introduce cadets to applied concepts of Sports Physiology, conduct personal fitness assessments in DPE's Center for Physical Development Excellence facility, and perhaps complete an independent study examining a sports physiology issue. The cadet becomes familiar with the varied aspects of Sports Physiology and is able to demonstrate baseline and advanced knowledge of 'core principles.' Critical thinking and analysis is used in all endeavors. The personal assessments conducted in the lab and the independent study approach provides cadets with insightful physiological information that can enhance their personal fitness performance. |
