Updated version of what for me is the "Gold Standard" exercise physiology text for basic to RELATIVELY advanced exercise physiology. More advanced users will know where else to look.

worked well for my class and explains everything well

Exactly as described!

Never actually ended up using it much. Only referenced figures, which are great!

It's important book for athletes people!! I really like it

Our class needed this as a reference! It has been great!

Good book for college class

great book, buy on textbooks dot com, may be able to get a better price
