Course objectives
Learning outcomes of the course unit The aim of the course is to acquaint students with the problems of sports diagnostics. A partial goal is to teach students to implement performance tests in practice.
Learning outcomes
Students know and understand physiological tests of human response and adaptation to physical stress Students can apply theoretical knowledge of testing to sports practice Students will be able to plan, perform and evaluate performance tests using modern instrumentation.
