Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Exercise Physiology: Energy, Nutrition, and Human Performance
Many pictures, table, and related figure were sufficient to understand in physiological mechanism in condition to exercising. Especially, the last chapter was very impressed in my insufficient knowledge of molecular and cellular for exercise physiology.

Exercise Physiology: Energy, Nutrition, and Human Performance (Exercise Physiology ( MC Ardle))

When I first considered this book, I thought it was a little pricey. Now that I have it on my shelf, I think it would be cheap at twice the price.

Even when I don't have a question, simply reading the book teaches me things that I need to know and hadn't thought about. An excellent value.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - AWESOME !
I have been a fitness trainer for 20 years. I have read many books. This one is one of the best thus far. I highly recommend it !

The first few introductory chapters and the first few pages of each chapter remind me of my basic life sciences. The authors then focus on the application of cell biology to training. The thing I like most about this book, is that there is no "guru talk". Every piece of advice is based on currect research. ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - "the book" on exercise physiology
