    Anatomy and Physiology P5/M2 - Homeostasis Homeostasis is the need for an organism or a cell to regulate its internal environment (conditions within the fluid surrounding its body cells) by a system of feedback controls to stabilise health and functioning despite the outside changing conditions. This is important as this is what maintains and helps internal conditions (body temperature) to remain stable and constant. In humans homeostasis happens when the body regulates its body temperature in

    What is exercise physiology? Exercise physiology is the science that describes‚ explains and uses the body’s response to exercise and adaption to exercise to maximise human physical potential. Exercise physiology is very important in touch because the amount of physical activity our body can tolerate‚ the better we will play for the longest amount of time. ATP/CP system is used by the body to produce ATP quickly in the absence of oxygen. High intensity activities lasting for less than 10 seconds

    Anatomy and body type plays a significant role in determining the proper weightlifting strategy; there is no one weightlifting plan that would work for all members in a group‚ not only because people have different physical traits‚ but also different diet and living habits. There are three major body types: Ectomorph‚ endomorph and mesomorph. People who are described as Ectomorphs usually have lean muscle mass; they have small frames and do not gain weight easily‚ and therefore‚ have a slim appearance
