This book provides a comprehensive overview of the effects of exercise on metabolism, growth, and development during adolescence—a critical period of rapid physiological and psychological change. It integrates recent advances in understanding the biological basis of adolescent development, the role of metabolic regulation, and the multifaceted impacts of physical activity. Readers will gain insights into how exercise influences growth trajectories, metabolic adaptation, and long-term health outcomes, while also exploring current challenges and future directions in this emerging field. This book is an essential resource for researchers, educators, clinicians, and parents interested in adolescent health, exercise science, and developmental biology.
