Proposal

PEPROF 472/672 Advanced Physiology of Exercise B Updated course outline and bibliography attached.

Recent retirements and an inability to recruit tenure-track replacements have prevented the offering of 442-472/672 Advanced Physiology of Exercise in recent years. The hiring of a new department chairperson with expertise in exercise science and completion of the current tenure-track search in exercise science should make possible the offering of 442-472/672 Advanced Physiology of Exercise during the currency of the new bulletin.

ADVANCED PHYSIOLOGY OF EXERCISE

Course Outline

I. Laboratory instruction concerning laboratory reports, metabolic analysis, pulmonary function analysis, hydrostatic weighing and laboratory safety.

II. Problem Number One: Catalog technical problems as sources of error during hydrostatic weighing, determining the potential magnitude of these problems and developing strategies to minimize these problems.

III. Problem Number Two: Develop and evaluate a graded exercise test using a non-traditional type of exercise.

IV. Laboratory instruction concerning advanced metabolic analysis, physiological recording, blood collection, glucose and lactate analysis, and poster presentations.

V. Problem Number Three: Demonstrate the importance of bending the knees during sit-ups and evaluate crunch-type sit-ups in comparison to complete sit-ups.

VI. Problem Number Four: Demonstrate the existence of the oxygen deficit and oxygen debt.

VII. Problem Number Five: Identify the most useful single skinfold site or other anthropometric measurement for use in estimating body composition.

VIII. Problem Number Six: Use the anaerobic threshold to predict the outcome of a marathon running race.

IX. Laboratory instruction concerning exercise biochemistry, clinical chemistry, spectrophotometry, pharmacology, aids to performance and environmental physiology.

X. Problem Number Seven: Evaluate levels of 2,3-diphosphoglyceric acid and related parameters as a consequence of the volume of aerobic exercise.

XI. Problem Number Eight: Evaluate the relative efficiency of variations of walking versus running as modes of aerobic exercise.

XII. Problem Number Nine: Compare performances during the Harvard Step Test and Queen's College Step Test through measurements of oxygen consumption and lactic acid production.

XIII. Problem Number Ten: Assess the risk of developing coronary heart disease based on the analysis of blood samples.

XIV. Laboratory instruction concerning anesthesia, surgical procedures, physiological measurements, muscle biopsy, exercise histochemistry and animal experimentation.

XV. Display of poster presentations during the day culminating in a brief oral presentation and a chaired discussion of each poster at night.

XVI. Grading

A. Laboratory Reports (400/600 Points)
B. Laboratory Contributions (100/600 Points)
C. Poster Presentation (100/600 Points)
D. Graduate students registered for 442-672 will be
     required to complete a paper in addition to the
     requirements listed above.
