ABSTRACT
Section 2 of this book discussed some primary candidates behind the development of fatigue during sport and exercise. For clarity, the influence of factors that could modulate these candidates was not discussed. It is beyond the scope of this book to provide information on all potential modulating factors. For example, the influence of health, illness, and disease on fatigue would warrant multiple books to itself. Similarly, while we know that many aspects of human performance decline with advancing age, this is not necessarily due to the onset of novel fatigue mechanisms.
