Introduction to Exercise Science introduces undergraduate students to the foundational disciplines (e.g., anatomy, physiology) and subdisciplines (e.g., exercise physiology, biomechanics, motor behavior, nutrition, exercise psychology) of exercise science and is designed to provide an overview of individual areas of study versus an in-depth, exhaustive review. Exercise science continues to be among the most popular majors for post-secondary students interested in fitness, wellness, and strength and conditioning, as well as students interested in careers in medicine and the allied health professions.
In this fully updated and revised sixth edition, chapters are structured to include historical perspectives, key concepts, clinical and sports related applications, technology and equipment, educational preparation, and career pathways. Chapter features include learning objectives, keywords and definitions, journal abstracts, study questions, learning activities, suggested readings, and online resources. Chapters 1 through 3 provide introductory and foundational information about the field of exercise science and the remaining chapters focus on core areas of study in exercise science. Ancillary materials to support teaching include PowerPoint slides, hands-on learning/laboratory activities, and a test bank of questions for quizzes and examinations for each chapter.
Introduction to Exercise Science is a complete resource for a hands-on introduction to the core tenets of exercise science. It is an engaging and invaluable textbook for students beginning undergraduate degrees in Kinesiology, Exercise Science, Sports Coaching, Strength and Conditioning, Athletic Training, Sports Medicine, Sports Therapy, and Health and Fitness.

**Please note our transit times are from the date of dispatch.** We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book.
