: This course is a study of the desire of the athlete to push the limits of sports performance by using the five classifications of sports ergogenics; nutritional, physiological, pharmacological, psychological, and mechanical and biomechanical aids. While all are considered training techniques, the course subject matter will emphasize those specific aids which are used to increase physical power, enhance mental strength, or provide a mechanical edge, by favorably acting upon one or more of the processes that produce energy, promote growth and development, and regulate metabolism. This course applies to anyone who is athletic, not just athletes per se, but members of the U.S. military and other organizations where strength, speed and endurance are paramount. The course will cover everything from anabolic steroids to caffeine to DHEA, and everything in between. Myths will be exploded. This course also applies to anyone who is athletic, not just athletes per se, but members of the U.S. military and other organizations where strength, speed and endurance are paramount. |
