Introduction of Endurance
Top-Endurance provides you with the basic knowledge of exercise physiology needed
for coaching or participating in endurance-based sporting activities.
Understanding this information is important for people who are active
competitors or people who participate in endurance activities for health and
recreation. A significant amount of physical energy is required when a person
trains for and competes in endurance-based sporting events. Therefore, we begin
this chapter with a discussion of energy production. Some basic questions will
get us started:
- What exactly is energy?
- How is energy produced and used in an endurance athlete’s body?
The answers to these questions rely primarily on the basic
sciences of biology and biochemistry. If you’re studying these subjects for the
first time, you may find them to be very technical and a bit overwhelming. In
that case, you should focus on the nonscientific analogies provided and should
refer to the figures where indicated. These tips will help you get the most out
of this chapter.
