With this 100% online program, you will employ your knowledge of Muscular and Metabolic Physiology Related to Exercise to recommend Nutritional Supplements that optimize athletic performance"

Muscular and Metabolic Physiology Related to Exercise is a key factor in the field of pharmacology, as it plays a crucial role in the ability of specialists to understand and properly advise patients on the use of medications to improve their physical performance. For this reason, pharmacists require a holistic understanding of how sports activity affects muscle function and metabolism. In this way, experts will be able to ensure both the safety and efficacy of pharmacological treatments used in athletes with physical activity-related conditions.

In this scenario, TECHimplements a cutting-edge program in Muscular and Metabolic Physiology Related to Exercise. The academic itinerary will delve into cardiovascular, ventilatory and hormonal adaptations related to sports practice. In relation to this, the syllabus will delve into the structure of muscles, the lactic threshold and Phosphagen Metabolism. In this way, graduates will gain skills to perform comprehensive muscle assessments in order to identify muscle imbalances that require the consumption of Nutritional Supplements. In addition, a distinguished International Guest Director will offer a master class where she will help pharmacists to significantly enhance their clinical competencies.

Regarding the format of the university program, it is based on the advanced teaching methodology of Relearning, of which TECH is a pioneer. This is based on the natural reiteration of key concepts, promoting a progressive and natural learning experience for specialists. In addition, in the Virtual Campus, pharmacists will have access to a library full of multimedia resources (including infographics, interactive summaries and case studies) to dynamically reinforce the most complex terms.

A prestigious International Guest Director will give an enriching Masterclass to guarantee an excellent pharmaceutical practice"
