About The Instructor
Dominique (Dee) Stasulli
Dee is an endurance and strength coach [owner of Zeal Endurance Coaching] for competitive amateur and recreational athletes across a range of endurance sport disciplines.
Her master’s degree is in Kinesiology: Sports Conditioning and she’s an NSCA Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist. She loves to combine the science of exercise physiology with the art of coaching in the field. She also currently teaches anatomy/physiology, kinesiology, and pathophysiology to pre-healthcare students on the community college level. Personally, she is a former DII collegiate cross-country/track and field athlete and now participates in a variety of sports year-round, but racing trail and multisport events are her favorite.
Course Description
Physiological Adaptations to Endurance Exercise is a specialization course created and designed to provide coaches and athletes with a deeper, fuller understanding of the many physiological adaptations that occur within the human body in response to endurance training. It delves into what we know scientifically about how all of the systems adapt.
Modules include video instruction as well as key points for easy reference. We’ve kept the videos short and to the point and set up the course structure to make it easy to find specific topics so you can not only quickly and efficiently learn the material but can also use the course ongoing for quick reference to various topics.
This course is ideal for coaches and athletes who want to better understand the physiology of endurance training in order to better apply correct training methods and understand how to adapt training to the individual athlete. While this course is an excellent deeper dive into physiology for existing coaches, it also serves as a great introduction to exercise physiology and is a great course to take prior to taking UESCA Coaching certifications.
We are excited to be able to offer this very important information to help further the expertise of endurance coaches and to offer it in an easy-to-learn format.
The completion of this course fulfills 100% of the UESCA recertification requirement!
