Hormonal Responses to Exercise | Chapter 4 | Highlights on Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 13

 This chapter discusses stress hormones, which are produced in diverse levels into the bloodstream and cause a typical physiological reaction to various types and modes of exercise. The intensity, duration, kind of exercise, gender, and age all influence the hormone response to exercise. The consequences differ between trained and untrained athletes. Hormones are secreted in a variety of ways. o The consequences of diurnal variation have been discussed as well. Other than exercise, many triggers such as hypoglycemia, caffeine, hypoxia, glucagon, and hypercapnia can significantly increase hormone responsiveness. The chapter provides an overview of the literature on growth hormone, cortisol, testosterone, and catecholamines, as well as acute and chronic effects. On various hormones, aerobic, anaerobic, resistance, and endurance workouts have different impacts.
