Learning outcomes
The students will acquire knowledge relating to modifications of cardio-circulatory, respiratory and metabolic muscle parameters, in athletes engaged in different sports and at different levels. It will be studied the quantifiable factors affecting the performance. In particular, it will be examined the role of biomechanical and physiological factors in different sports competitions. The student will be able to formulate physiological models in order to predict the performance. The course aims to deepen the bioenergetics of locomotion models and the concept of energy cost of locomotion (C), particularly interesting in sports (running, swimming and cycling). The main factors changing the energy cost of locomotion and limiting the performance will be described. Subsequently physiological models will be developed to predict performance of some kind of competitions at different distances. It will be analyzed models to quantify the weight of the physiological factors affecting performance. The main adaptations induced by training on the cardiovascular, respiratory and muscular system will be learnt. Finally, further knowledge will be provided students to understanding the phenomena of plasticity of skeletal muscle and of the nervous system during the physical training.
Program
Course program
• Energy cost of locomotion and its analysis as a factor affecting performance.
• Environmental, kinematic, biomechanical, morphological, functional and genetic factors that influence the energy cost of locomotion.
• Predictive models of performance over long distances, mid-distance race and in the sprint race.
• Energy cost of cycling; factors that influence the energy cost of cycling (frontal area, drag coefficient, friction coefficient, shape of the frame). Predictive models of performance in cycling on road and track.
• The physiological factors that influence the performance in running and cycling.
• Effects of aerobic training on the cardiovascular system (heart size, stroke volume, heart rate, cardiac output, O2 transport during submaximal and maximal exercise).
• Effect of disuse on the cardiovascular system (heart size, stroke volume, heart rate, cardiac output, O2 transport during submaximal and maximal exercise).
• Effects of aerobic and strength training on muscle fibers size and on the contractile properties of motor units.
• Training effects of peripheral blood flow limitations.
• The role of exercise on the control of the different isoforms of contractile proteins in muscle fibers.
• Analysis of the performance limits in running, cycling, swimming, triathlon.
• Analysis of the performance limits in hypobaric environment.
Prerequisites:
Basic knowledge of the physiological responses at rest and exercise. Basic knowledge about the tests in Exercise Physiology Laboratory.
Bibliography
Examination Methods
• Written test (drafting/presentation of a paper on a topic agreed with the teacher).

Internships
Internships are aimed at enabling students to gain direct knowledge of the world of work and to acquire specific professional skills.
Internships are carried out under the responsibility of an individual lecturer, and can be carried out in professional firms, public administration bodies and companies recognised by the University of Verona.
Any CFU credits gained by doing internships will be recognised and recorded by the University in accordance with the relevant University regulations in force (Regolamento d’Ateneo per il riconoscimento dei crediti maturati negli stage universitari).
For further information on internships, please go to: https://www.univr.it/it/i-nostri-servizi/stage-e-tirocini.

Competenze linguistiche
DOPO LA LAUREA TRIENNALE
Per proseguire gli studi in uno dei corsi di Laurea Magistrale dell'ambito delle Scienze motorie è necessario possedere competenze linguistiche almeno di livello B1 informatizzato (o superiore) specificamente di lingua inglese, poichè i corsi di studio di livello superiore prevedono nel proprio piano didattico la presenza di insegnamenti o di moduli impartiti dai docenti direttamente in inglese.
Inoltre, tali competenze costituiscono requisito di accesso indispensabile per poter partecipare alla prova di ìngresso oppure per iscriversi ad una laurea magistrale.
La conoscenza di altre lingue diverse dall'Inglese NON può venire riconosciuta come "requisito" utile per l'accesso ai corsi di laurea magistrale. Tuttavia, la certificazione posseduta potrà essere valutata da un'apposita Commissione di docenti ed eventualmente riconosciuta in termini di crediti (CFU) a scelta dello studente, presentando domanda al momento dell'immatricolazione.
Si invita a leggere con attenzione i bandi di concorso annuali per l'ammissione ai corsi di laurea magistrali per maggiori informazioni - consultare nel sito del corso di studio anche la sezione "Iscriversi".
