ES 6540: Neuromuscular Physiology

3 Credit Hours
Prerequisite: ES 6510  
This course examines the acute and chronic neuromuscular adaptations to the performance of work.

Course Learning Outcomes
Students who successfully complete this course will be able to: 

1. Discuss advanced mechanisms of neuromuscular dynamics at rest and during exercise including anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology of the metabolic and neuromuscular systems.

2. Explain neuromuscular mechanisms allowing the performance of work, phenomenon associated with neuromuscular function, as well as acute and chronic neuromuscular adaptations to exercise.

4. Illustrate the interrelationships of the metabolic and neuromuscular systems at rest, during exercise, and in response to chronic training, including assessment of metabolic and neuromuscular measures.

5. Read and interpret original scholarly and review articles in metabolic and neuromuscular physiology and to appropriately utilize and disseminate the information.
