What Is Exercise Science? (hardcover) - Hardcover

by Rebecca Woodbury M. Ed (Author)

Exercise scientists study how the body works to perform different tasks such as jumping, running, climbing, and lifting heavy things. How the body works, how exercise changes the body, how the body uses food, and how we can become strong and stay healthy are all part of the study of exercise science. We can find out the best way to ride a bike, hike a mountain, and win a race, and the best way for a swimmer to eat. The many full color illustrations and photos make this reader informative and fun for kids to read.
