This month we had a film crew in the School of Sport and Exercise Sciences’ laboratories, we have been filming for a new online course with FutureLearn https://www.futurelearn.com/
FutureLearn is an online platform where you can choose from hundreds of free online courses from top universities and specialist organisations. SSES has designed a six-week online course entitled: The Science of Training and Endurance Performance. The course will provide endurance sport recommendations and explain the scientific underpinning behind areas such as training, nutrition, psychology, injury, rehabilitation, pain and fatigue and respiratory health. The content is suitable for anyone interested in endurance sport or activity from beginners to elite athletes, coaches and trainers. The learning platform is interactive and powered by an online community, each step of the course welcomes comments and questions from its followers. The course is free and the due date of release is late spring 2017.
