IPE 2022 | Sex Differences in Athletic Performance

About this course

This presentation highlights (1) the experimental findings for the fundamental differences in physiology and anatomy that dictates the sex differences in athletic performance and fatigability of limb muscles during different tasks and events and (2) the non-physiological factors that influence sex differences in performance.

Understanding the mechanisms for sex differences in fatigability and athletic performance has important implications for training and rehabilitation in males and females, and the rationale for sex-based categorization of athletic events.

What you will learn

• Learn the known sex differences in exercise and physical performance across various fatiguing tasks and athletic events.
• The physiological and anatomical differences between males and females that drive the sex differences in exercise performance and fatigability of limb muscles.
• The non-physiological factors that influence the sex differences in exercise performance, with a focus on the marathon.
