E233 - Sport and exercise psychology: a case study approach. On this page In this course you will explore common psychological issues in sport and exercise, and learn to recognise situations where psychological theory can be applied in real-life cases.
Research summaries are used alongside case studies to help you engage with recent literature. You’ll cover some of the key topics in sport and exercise psychology such as: anxiety; self-confidence; concentration; group dynamics; the psychology of injury; exercise dependence; and mental skills training used by psychologists. This course is suitable if you have a general interest in sport and exercise psychology, or are working in the field in roles such as exercise instruction or sports coaching.
Modules at Level 2 assume that you are suitably prepared for study at this level. What you will study The course comprises five study topics: Introduction to sport and exercise psychology – This is an introduction to the field of sport and exercise psychology and the approach used in the rest of the course.

It only lasts a short time before it needs to be replenished. Creatine phosphate can be used to replenish ATP, but is also in very short supply. Aerobic Metabolism: A process of converting fat and glycogen or glucose into ATP to be used as a fuel by the muscles. Alkalosis: When the horse sweats and loses electrolytes, the kidneys start to retain bicarbonate ions.
Anaerobic Metabolism: A process of converting glycogen or glucose into ATP to be used as a fuel for the muscles. Anal Tone: Test performed at vet checks. Anhidrosis: A condition where the horse does not sweat even when overheated. Arrhythmia: Some horses have an uneven heart rate or heart beat.

Dear Friends of Equestrian Life, After seven meaningful years of working on Equestrian Life and building one of the largest multi-discipline equestrian communities online, we have decided that it is time for us to focus our efforts on new and to close down the www.equestrianlife.com Web site effective Friday January 31st.
Thank you for all you did as members to make the site a great place for connecting with each other through your shared love of horses, irrespective of how you individually choose to express that passion. Please take what you have learned and continue to bring people together around your passion for horses. Please also work to tear down the stereotypes and walls that separate the equestrian community and take it upon yourself to explore new disciplines and ways of enjoying these incredible and loving animals. We hope you have enjoyed the thousands of videos and television shows we produced and the great prizes many of you won via our contests with top equestrian brands.
Reading List. Electrolyte Supplementation of Endurance Horses. Electrolytes are a critical component of an endurance horse’s nutritional program since they play an important role in maintaining osmotic pressure, fluid balance, and nerve and muscle activity.
During exercise, sodium (Na+), potassium (K+), and chloride (Cl) are lost in large quantities through sweating. Loss of these electrolytes causes fatigue and muscle weakness and decreases the thirst response to dehydration. It is vitally important that performance horses begin competition with optimal levels of fluids and electrolytes in their bodies and that these important nutrients are replaced throughout prolonged exercise. Because most electrolyte losses in the horse occur through sweating, one method of calculating electrolyte requirements can be based on different amounts of sweat loss. The amount of sweat loss will depend on a number of factors such as duration and intensity of exercise, temperature, and humidity.
