Un curso muy interesante, ideal si te dedicas a alguna rama de la salud o si te interesa el tema simplemente. Todos deberÃan conocer los beneficios que la actividad fÃsica tiene para la salud. El profesor da explicaciones claras y los vÃdeos son cortos y fáciles de seguir

This course gave me a lot of insights on how different types of training affect the human body differently, rather, how the body responds to different kinds of training. Gained some knowledge regarding nutrition aspects that is necessary to our body while exercising.

I truly enjoyed this course and its simple structure. The information provided is invaluable to me and my future goals. I particularly enjoyed the final graded assessment; it was a true measure of one's ability to apply what they learned throughout the four weeks.

Excellent course that really shifted my vision of the mechanism of exercise.
Sometimes complex schemes could be further explained but apart from this, it was one of my best course on Coursera.
Can be done by anyone from a professional physio to a beginner in biology

Great course!!!! i would only have the final question be a bit clearer on the info they are looking for, cause i found i could have written for day on the subject. Or maybe i didn't get the question well enough. But still really great course. Thanks Dr. Mazzeo

Great course. Got to get hold of the MCSM and Kluwer Textbooks to get the feeling of the material closer to a college course. The course ends with a peer-reviewed exercise: Two out of three solutions I was supposed to review were a complete waste of time ...

A really comprehensive presentation of the health benefits of exercise. The author discusses in depth the physiological, and metabolic remodeling associated with both acute exercise and prolonged training (adaptation). Very well explained and highly useful.
