Exercise Testing and Prescription. Liverpool Hope University

This programme provides advanced training in the principles of exercise testing and exercise prescription. You will study in detail the physiology of, and learn specialist skills in, the use of incremental testing procedures and more contemporary approaches such as oxygen uptake kinetics and critical power. You will also study the physiology underpinning the latest research into exercise prescription in special populations such as children, the older adult and diseased states. Practical "hands-on" experience is key aspect of the programme, designed to produce critical thinkers with a deep understanding of the most up to date work in this field.
