About Exercise Physiology
Exercise physiology uses testing of heart, lung and muscle responses to exercise to design safe, effective exercise plans for athletes and for people with conditions such as heart disease, diabetes and obesity.
People with heart conditions, chest pain or breathlessness should get medical clearance before starting vigorous exercise.
