What is exercise physiology? Exercise physiology is the science that describes‚ explains and uses the body’s response to exercise and adaption to exercise to maximise human physical potential. Exercise physiology is very important in touch because the amount of physical activity our body can tolerate‚ the better we will play for the longest amount of time. ATP/CP system is used by the body to produce ATP quickly in the absence of oxygen. High intensity activities lasting for less than 10 seconds

The endocrine system refers to the different organs of the body that are responsible for secreting hormones that affect bodily processes. Better known for their ability to process waste‚ the kidneys are responsible for the secretion of four different hormones: rennin‚ calcitriol‚ erythropoietin and thrombopoietin These chemicals released by the kidneys affect a wide range of bodily processes dealing with the circulatory and skeletal systems. Understanding the endocrine functions of the
