Exercise Neurophysiology
Exercise Neurophysiology
Instructor: Aaron Westbrook
Date: June 27th, 2020
Course Description:
The human nervous system produces perception and directs both voluntary and involuntary physical activities. Sensory input, activation and relaxation of contractile tissue, and performance of motor skills are all dictated by the Neuromuscular system. Train the nervous system with intent and purpose with Exercise Neurophysiology. In this 8-hour course, students will learn: fundamentals of the human nervous system; how the nervous system is known to respond and adapt to exercise; methods to create specific exercise programming for the Neuromuscular system. In addition, students will learn associated neurological anatomy, sensorimotor pathways, and the neurological basis for human physical activity.
