About this course
During whole-body exercise, the contractile requirements placed on the respiratory muscles increase significantly, demanding up to 15% of total body oxygen consumption during high-intensity exercise. This course will explore both inspiratory and expiratory respiratory muscle function and energetics during exercise in adults. Attendees will acquire an enhanced understanding of how the unique structural and functional properties of the respiratory muscles support exercise hyperpnea.
What you will learn
- Understand the role and requirements of the respiratory muscles in supporting dynamic exercise
- Be able to link the exercise hyperpnea with respiratory muscle function during exercise
- Be able to identify the unique demands placed on the respiratory muscles during exercise in obesity
