The perfect opportunity to address the physiological factors that determine a good practice of Professional Cycling”

As the cyclist trains, a series of adaptations occur at the cellular and muscular level. These allow greater efficiency in the use of energy substrates , a better capacity to produce energy and an increase in resistance to fatigue. Taken together, all these factors translate into an enhanced performance of the athlete, which is why the mastery of Physiology in this discipline is postulated as an imperative aspect.

That is why this Postgraduate certificate is positioned as a fantastic option for the sports professional to update himself on the adaptations at the cardiovascular, respiratory, muscular and metabolic level that determine performance. Thus, during the program, the energy systems will be analyzed in detail, focusing on the metabolism of phosphagens and glycolysis. Similarly, students will examine the role of lactate and HR or HRV responses to exercise. With all this, students will improve their skills in situations such as the interpretation of hematology in athletes.

Undoubtedly, a high-level specialization with which the Sports Science professional will verify the benefits of updating at the hands of the largest online university in the world. In this sense, you should not go to a face-to-face center for a single day or submit to pre-set schedules, so the management of academic times will be at your own expense. In addition, with just an Internet connection you will have access to the largest digital library of resources on this subject.

Thanks to this title you will master the operation of the systems energy sources, influencing the phosphagen metabolism and glycolysis”

This Postgraduate certificate in Cyclist Exercise Physiology contains the most complete and up-to-date scientific program on the market. The most important features include:

Were you looking for a degree on cycling that emphasized the female physiological characteristics for this practice? This program is for you!”

The program’s teaching staff includes professionals in the sector who contribute their work experience to this educational as well as renowned specialists from leading societies and prestigious universities.

Its multimedia content, developed with the latest educational technology, will provide the professional with situated and contextual learning, i.e., a simulated environment that will provide an immersive education designed to learn in real situations.

The design of this program focuses on Problem-Based Learning, through which the professional must try to solve the different professional practice situations that arise throughout the academic year. To do this, , it will have the help of an innovative interactive video system made by renowned experts.

You will improve your knowledge on the interpretation of hematology in cyclists"

You will be a reference when establishing performance markers, such as FTP or VAM"

The objectives of this Postgraduate certificate revolve around the full mastery and expert range of the Physiology that characterizes the exercise of cycling. To this end, students will delve into their physiological milestones and the best strategies to determine them. It is, in fact, a program with a global approach so that graduates have the ability to face any scenario that arises in this area, however challenging it may be.
