Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course is to provide the students with a comprehensive overview of human physiology under physical load, both in terms of acute conditions and adaptation to physical load. The acquired knowledge is the basis for follow-up theoretical and practical courses dealing with physical activity. Information about this course was translated to English within the project Internationalization of the Faculty of Physical Culture, Palacký University, Olomouc, No. CZ.1.07/2.2.00/28.0028, co-funded by the European Social Fund and the Government of the Czech Republic.
Upon completion of the course the student: 1. Is able to describe the reaction and adaptation of various body systems to physical load, 2. Is able to describe the effect of gender, age and environment on sports performance, 3. Knows the basic methods of examination of the cardiovascular system in the field and in laboratory conditions, 4. Knows the issue of doping.

Prerequisites
|
A prerequisite for completion of Physiology of load is secondary school knowledge of biology and human anatomy. A prerequisite for enrolment in the course is completion of Functional anatomy and General physiology (awarded credit in these courses). Exam dates can be registered after taking an exam from Functional anatomy.

Assessment methods and criteria
|
Mark, Oral exam, Written exam
Active participation in lectures and 100% active participation in seminars. The students' knowledge is verified by means of a comprehensive exam also covering the knowledge from the previous course of General physiology. The exam and the first retake is a test, the second retake is an oral board examination.
