Despite the scientific advances, many riders and trainers are still using little more than experience and intuition to train their horses. \u003cp\u003eThe aim of this book is to sort the fact from the fiction for the benefit of those involved in training, managing or working with horses, and to provide an up-to-date summary of the state of play in equine exercise physiology. Scientific theories are explained from first principles, with the assumption that the reader has no previous scientific background. The book is designed to save competitors and trainers a lot of time and effort trying to extract information in piecemeal fashion from a host of reference sources. For the first time, everything you need to know about exercising and training horses is here in one text.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eForeword.  \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgements.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart I The Raw Materials.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 Introduction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2 Energetics of exercise.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 Muscles.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 Connective tissue.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5 The respiratory system.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6 The cardiovascular system.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart II Exercise and Training Responses.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7 Muscular responses.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8 Skeletal responses.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9 Respiratory responses.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10 Cardiovascular responses.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e11 Aspects of physiological stress and fatigue.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e12 Thermoregulation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e13 Introduction to biomechanics.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart III Applications of Exercise Physiology.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e14 The demands of equestrian sport.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e15 Training principles.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e16 Training facilities.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e17 Practical training.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e18 Exercise testing.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e19 Indicators of performance.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e20 Feeding performance horses.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e21 Transport.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFurther reading.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Veterinary medicine [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Veterinary medicine\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Veterinary%20medicine%20%5BMZ%5D%22\"\u003eMZ\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley-Blackwell","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52453474009368,"sku":"9780632055524","price":60.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9780632055524.jpg?v=1785284896","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/equine-exercise-physiology-paperback-softback-9780632055524","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
