Neuroendocrine Exercise Response

Meaning

The Neuroendocrine Exercise Response describes the integrated, systemic reaction of the nervous system and the endocrine system to the physiological stress of physical activity. This coordinated response involves the rapid release of neurotransmitters and hormones that work synergistically to mobilize energy substrates, maintain fluid and electrolyte balance, regulate cardiovascular function, and ultimately drive the necessary tissue adaptations. It is a highly coordinated feedback loop essential for survival, performance optimization, and metabolic flexibility.
