EDLF 572 - Excercise Physiology

This course will focus on exercise and other forms of physical activity as a means of promoting positive psychological growth and well being across the lifespan. We will examine the factors that influence participation and adherence, and explore personal and contextual factors that inhibit and contribute to physical activity across the lifespan. Theoretical models and empirical research will be critically reviewed, and potential avenues for future research explored. In addition, effective strategies for intervention will be reviewed and discussed. (IR)
