Exercise Physiology Textbook

The University of Findlay is located in Findlay, Ohio and is a four year, non-profit university. There are many different degree options available for students with in the Equestrian Studies Program and include:

· Associate of Arts in Western riding/training emphasis

· Associate of Arts in English riding/training emphasis

· Bachelor of Science in Western riding/training emphasis

· Bachelor of Science in English riding/training emphasis

· Bachelor of Science in Equine Business Management

The universities Equestrian Studies Program is designed to provide students with all of the vital skills that they will need to have a long and successful career in the equine industry by providing them with knowledge and experiences that is unmatched by any other university. The program has a twelve member faculty that is comprised of professional trainers, judges, exhibitors, and breeders who all are actively involved in their specific discipline and have a realistic perspective of the equine industry. For the past 30 years, students have been able to excel because the university offers:

· Riding instruction five days a week

· Professional equine staff

· Two outstanding equine facilities

· Modern horse training techniques

· Over 400 horses

· One-on-one academic advising

· Internship opportunities

The universities Western Equestrian Studies program will teach students the proper techniques in showmanship, horsemanship, and western pleasure during their first year of training. The program will then progress on to breaking colts, cutting, reining, and finishing pleasure horses for the show ring. There are also other areas of the western discipline that will be covered like western riding, and trail. Students will also be taught a number of different customer relation skills and how to produce a horse that is easily ridden by their owners. Besides the intense riding portion of the program, students will also go in depth into nutrition, reproduction, business management, judging, and preventative medicine. There are also special courses available that will cover sales, marketing, promotion, business skills, therapeutic riding, and exercise physiology.

The English Equestrian Studies program focuses on the fundamental theories of English riding and training and will progress though hunters, jumpers, and dressage. Students will then train an unbroken horse to a level that is determined by their instructors. Students can also take several upper level classes where they will learn more advanced riding and training procedures on both the flat and over fences. Special areas that are covered include sales, marketing, promotion, and business skills.

The Equine Business Management Program combines different equine science courses with management topics and traditional business management topics and is designed for students who choose to purse a career in the equine industry other than the area of training. Students will learn about laws that affect the equine industry and many other practical aspects that include livestock management, reproductive management, disease prevention, and selecting, operating and maintain farm equipment. All Equestrian Studies students are highly encouraged to carry a second major or minor to enhance their career options in the equine industry.

All Equestrian majors are eligible for a variety of different academic scholarships that are awarded annually. There are also internships that are available to provide students additional hands on experiences within the equine industry. There are internships available for academic credit or students can choose internships that are taken for zero credit. Internships are available to students in Western equitation, English equitation, or business management.

There are also a number of different student organizations available and include the Intercollegiate Horse Show Association, Intercollegiate Dressage Association, Horse Club, UF Horsemen American Collegiate Horse Show Association, and University of Findlay Vaulters. All of these different clubs are available to any student who is interested in horses and the equine industry.

Equine Exercise Physiology (Paperback) $160.72 Equine exercise physiology is an area that has been subject to major scientific advances over the last 30 years, largely due to the increased availability of high-speed treadmills and techniques for recording physiological function during exercise. Despite the scientific advances, many riders and trainers are still using little more than experience and intuition to train their horses.The aim of this book is to sort the fact from the fiction for the benefit of those involved in training, managing or working with horses, and to provide an up-to-date summary of the state of play in equine exercise physiology. Scientific theories are explained from first principles, with the assumption that the reader has no previous scientific background. The book is designed to save competitors and trainers a lot of time and effort trying to extract information in piecemeal fashion from a host of reference sources. For the first time, everything you need to know about exercising and training horses is here in one text.

Anatomy & Physiology (Spiral) $253.28 Anatomy & Physiology Laboratory Textbook, Essentials Version, by Gunstream et al presents the fundamentals of human anatomy and physiology in an easy-to-follow manner appropriate for allied health students.

Ross, of Georgia State University, has revised this sixth edition of the manual, updating terminology, replacing photos and art, and bringing her experience in the lab to the explanations and directions.

Physiology of Respiration $39.99 This concise, lucid textbook provides a basis for understanding the function of the respiratory system and a framework for the treatment of many respiratory diseases. It was developed as a working text with problem-solving exercises for the student's use in reviewing each chapter. The writing style flows easily from one topic to another. Mathematical relationships are presented in a simple way and are clearly explained. The illustrations are carefully designed to convey ideas in an easy-to-understand format. The book's scope is comprehensive, encompassing all aspects of respiratory physiology, including pulmonary anatomy and microstructure, mechanics, gas exchange, acid-base balance and control mechanisms. Unlike many texts, this one strikes a good balance between the principles of pulmonary gas exchange (ventilation, perfusion, gas exchange efficiency) and the neural control of respiration (central and chemical mechanisms and reflexes). It emphasizes integrative aspects of respiration such as the system's response to altitude, hyperbaric environments, exercise, sleep, and the in utero and early postnatal period. The second edition has been reorganized to make the book more approachable by students, and it has been updated throughout, including many new ideas about the distribution of lung blood blow and respiratory rhythm generation.

Exercise Endocrinology (Book) $87.95 Exercise Endocrinology is the only comprehensive textbook dealing with the endocrine physiology of exercise. The book serves both as a valuable introduction to endocrinology and as an integrative overview of exercise endocrinology. The text will help you understand the basics of endocrinology while giving you the most current information on endocrine physiology research.What makes Exercise Endocrinology unique is its organization by functional responses of hormones rather than by their organs and tissue origins. In addition, the book integrates autonomic physiology with endocrinology to present the most thorough review available of the autonomic nervous system's involvement in exercise. Written by a highly acclaimed exercise scientist and endocrinology researcher, Exercise Endocrinology is well organized and includes references, illustrations, and tables that will help you do the following: Compare hormone sources and effectsCategorize hormones, receptors, organ sources, and actions Understand hormone functions (with specific consideration for fluid regulation, immunology, fuel use, stress responses, biological rhythms, and physical performance)Recognize hormone agonists and antagonistsBe aware of the influence of exercise and hormones on human healthThe text devotes substantial attention to the chemical mediation of hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and obesity. It also combines the study of growth and energy regulation to clarify how chemical mediators cause partitioning of energy down these separate pathways. The practical value of Exercise Endocrinology will appeal to students and exercise scientists, and the book will also be a valuable reference for health professionals who use exercise in disease prevention and rehabilitation.
