Description
This module will enable the learners to explain and demonstrate principles, concepts and inter-relationships between the circulatory, respiratory and endocrine systems at rest and during exercise.
Learning Outcomes
On completion of this module the learner will/should be able to;
1.
Describe Cardiovascular and Respiratory control and regulation at rest and during exercise.
2.
Describe the hormonal regulation of metabolism, fluid and electrolytes during exercise.
3.
Use relevant scientific skills to perform measurements in ECG and Blood pressure at rest and in response to exercise.
4.
Define, collect and analyse spirometry data (static and dynamic lung volumes and capacities).
Teaching and Learning Strategies
This module will be delivered full time. This will include lectures, laboratory practicals and augmented by independent and directed learning. This approach is expected to address student learning needs. Moodle will be used as a repository of educational resources and as a means of assessment (e.g.quizzes, uploading assignments).
Module Assessment Strategies
This module is 65% continuous assessment and 35% final exam.
The assessment strategy for this module focuses on the ability to conduct physiological tests that look at the interrelationship between various physiological components. Ability to interpret data and report results is assessed by written assignment. Theory is assessed by online quizzes with immediate feedback for the students. Students conduct their own experiment of choice in a team environment to assess their ability to work autonomously within an agreed timeframe. Findings of this are communicated by a presentation to their peer group.
The student must reach an assigned gate (30 marks) in the final exam and achieve 40% overall to pass the subject.
Repeat Assessments
Repeat continuous assessment and/or final exam.
Indicative Syllabus

ACSM's Guidelines for Exercise Testing and Prescription is the flagship title from the American College of Sports Medicine, the prestigious organization that sets the standards for the exercise profession. This critical handbook delivers scientifically based standards on exercise testing and prescription to the certification candidate, the professional, and the student. This manual gives succinct summaries of recommended procedures for exercise testing and exercise prescription in healthy and diseased patients The tenth edition reflects some crucial and exciting changes, making the content necessary for effective study and practice. New pre-exercise health screening recommendations are critical to helping more of the population begin a safe, healthy physical activity program without consulting a physician. New and expanded information on the risks of sedentary behavior, clinical exercise testing and interpretation, high intensity interval training, musculoskeletal injury risk, fitness testing protocols and norms, and an expansion of the principles of health behavior change are included. Additionally, significant reorganization of content will help you reach the information you need quickly. This manual is an essential resource for all exercise professionals, as well as other health professionals who may council patients on exercise including physicians, nurses, physician's assistants, physical and occupational therapists, dieticians, and health care administrators.
