This course unit provides detailed information about key diagnostic functional tests in clinical medicine, all of which are conducted inside the lab. Students will be able to apply the basic concepts by conducting self-made examinations and recording their own physiological responses to exercise. Students can further understand the human body’s ability to perform exercise, to adapt to stressful conditions, to improve the exercise performance, to design appropriate therapeutic exercise rehabilitation programs and to evaluate the outcomes. All the topics are presented using a variety of teaching methods, including lectures, seminars, group activities, practical work and a tutorial. All lectures and seminars offer also the comprehensive resource that frames the latest and most significant research findings and makes it easier for students to learn.
