This book brings together some of the leading researchers in the
actively investigated field of oxidative stress, an area of study
which is of importance to human health and disease. It examines
oxidative stress in a variety of models, at rest and after
exercise, in young and old. Key concepts of oxidative stress,
exercise and aging are presented in clear and easy-to-understand
terms. Oxidative stress in different types of exercises -
isometric, isotonic and sports - is explained in detail, with
several chapters focusing on acute and chronic adaptations of
skeletal muscles following both aerobic and non-aerobic exercises.
The book includes current knowledge of the underlying mechanisms
influencing health and disease processes associated with oxidative
stress.
