Explain how the 1st two laws of thermodynamics are at play in exercise physiology and describe relationship between work rate and energy expenditure.
Describe the metabolic systems or pathways that generate energy to support work.
Explain what determines substrate oxidation during exercise (underlying explanation for crossover principle) by contrasting responses to duration or workload.
Technical Skills and Critical Thinking
