A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Sport performance and enhancement

Sport performance and enhancement focuses on the physiological, biomechanical, and psychological factors that influence an athlete’s ability to perform at peak levels, and the methods used to improve these factors. Mastering this topic is essential for the exam because it underpins the design of training programmes, the application of ergogenic aids, and the ethical considerations surrounding performance enhancement.
