Add to this, changes in the "how" of learning,…

This article explores an innovative educational approach using a metabolic board designed to enhance understanding of muscle metabolism across three endurance training zones: Z1 (light intensity), Z2 (moderate intensity), and Z3 (intense/severe intensity). The aerobic threshold marks the transition from light to moderate domains and the anaerobic…

This teaching brief highlights innovative adaptations of established pedagogical techniques to equip students with critical skills for success in Industry 4.0.
