The new edition offers a student-friendly introduction to a history documenting the emergence of molecular biology techniques, methodology, genetics and epigenetics, and the molecular mechanisms that lead to adaptation after exercise, and explicitly links to outcomes in performance, nutrition, physical activity, and clinical exercise.
