So what happens inside of the human body during exercise? What chemical interactions take place within the first few moments of intense training? How exactly do the muscles grow? And what role do the heart, lungs, and central nervous system play in the exercise process? Are there specific differences between men and women as it relates to training? If so, is it possible to use that information to sculpture a stronger, more appealing physique? Out of all of the possible fitness programs available, which one might work best for you? Through a series of reading assignments, group discussions and knowledge applications, the answers to these questions are now revealed. |
