Abstract:
Maximal oxygen uptake ( V O 2 · max), the highest rate at which an individual can consume O2 during exercise, is widely recognized as the best single measure of adults’ aerobic fitness.1,2 Maximal V O 2 · ultimately limits an individual’s capacity to perform aerobic exercise but it does not describe fully all aspects of aerobic fitness. The transient kinetics of V O 2 · best reflect the integrated response of the O2 delivery system and the metabolic requirements of the exercising muscle to rapid changes in exercise intensity. Furthermore, V O 2 · max is not the best index of an individual’s ability to sustain submaximal aerobic exercise and despite its derivation from anaerobic metabolism, measures of blood lactate accumulation during submaximal exercise provide useful indicators of aerobic fitness.As the assessment of V O 2 · kinetics is addressed in Chapter 22, in this chapter, we will focus on the assessment of V O 2 · max and blood lactate accumulation.

Abstract:
Peak oxygen uptake (V̇O2) is the criterion measure of young people's aerobic fitness, and blood lactate accumulation (BLA) is a useful indicator of aerobic fitness with reference to the ability to sustain submaximal exercise. In sport and in everyday life it is the pulmonary (p)V̇O2 kinetics of the non-steady state which best assess the integrated responses of the oxygen delivery system and the metabolic demands of the exercising muscle. Data analysis using sophisticated modelling techniques has enhanced understanding of sexual dimorphism and the independent effects of chronological age, body size, and biological maturity on peak V̇O2 and BLA. The extant data on young people's pV̇O2 kinetic responses to step changes in exercise intensity are sparse, but describe intriguing chronological age and sex differences across exercise domains. However, independent effects of biological maturation are yet to be revealed.

Abstract:
Peak V · O 2 limits the child’s capacity to perform aerobic exercise but it does not describe fully all aspects of aerobic fitness. Exercise of the intensity and duration required to elicit peak V · O 2 is rarely experienced by many young people.17,18 The vast majority ofhabitual physical activity is submaximal and of short duration and, under these circumstances, it is the transient kinetics of V · O 2 which reflect the integrated response of the oxygen delivery system and the metabolic requirements of the exercising muscle.19–21 Furthermore, peak V · O 2 is neither the best measure of a child’s ability to sustain submaximal aerobic exercise nor the most sensitive means to detect improvements in aerobic fitness after a training programme. Despite its origins in anaerobic metabolism, blood lactate accumulation is a valuable indicator of aerobic fitness and it can be used to monitor improvements in muscle oxidative capacity with exercise training in the absence of changes in peak V · O 2 .16,22 However, as V · O 2 kinetics is comprehensively reviewed in Chapter 22 and blood lactate accumulation during exercise is analysed in Chapter 8, we will focus herein on aerobic fitness as described by peak V · O 2 .

Abstract:
Traditional fears and misinformed concerns regarding youth resistance training have been replaced by scientific evidence that indicates regular participation in well-designed resistance-training programmes can be safe and effective for both children and adolescents. In addition to increasing muscular strength and power, regular participation in a structured resistance training-programme can increase bone mineral density, improve cardiovascular risk factors, fuel metabolic health, facilitate weight control, enhance psychosocial well-being, and prepare youth for the demands of daily physical activity and sport. An integrative approach to training, grounded in resistance exercise and motor skill development, can optimize children’s fitness potential and maximize their athletic performance while reducing the risk of sports-related injury. Qualified professionals are needed to plan, implement and progress developmentally appropriate resistance training to attain a level of muscular fitness that facilitates long-term physical development.

Abstract:
The Aesthetic Animal answers the ultimate questions of why we adorn ourselves; embellish our things and surroundings; and produce art, music, song, dance, and fiction. Humans are aesthetic animals that spend vast amounts of time and resources on seemingly useless aesthetic activities. However, nature would not allow a species to waste precious time and effort on activities completely unrelated to the survival, reproduction, and well-being of that species. Consequently, the aesthetic impulse must have some important biological functions. An impulse is a natural, internal behavioral incentive that does not need external reward to exist. A number of observations indicate that the aesthetic impulse is exactly such an inherent part of human nature, and therefore it is a primary impulse in its own right with several important functions. The aesthetic impulse may guide us toward what is biologically good for us and help us choose the right fitness-enhancing items in our surroundings. It is a valid individual fitness indicator, as well as a unifying social group marker, and aesthetically skilled individuals get more mating possibilities, higher status, and more collaborative offers. This book is written in a lively and entertaining tone, and it presents an original and comprehensive synthesis of the empirical field, synthesizing data from archeology, cave art, anthropology, biology, ethology, and experimental and evolutionary psychology and neuro-aesthetics.
