series of integrated changes in function that involve most‚ if not all‚ of its physiological systems. Movement requires activation and control of the musculoskeletal system; the cardiovascular and respiratory systems provide the ability to sustain this movement over extended periods. When the body engages in exercise training several times a week or more frequently‚ each of these physiological systems undergoes specific adaptations that increase the body’s efficiency and capacity. After a twelve
