Text
{{c1::General adaptation syndrome}} explains how {{c2::stressors do not have specific responses, they all generate the same general physical stress response}}.
Extra
3 stages of stress: Alarm, resistance, exhaustion.
1) The stressor upsets homeostasis or cellular balance, leading to the three stages of stress: alarm stage, resistance stage, and exhaustion stage.
2) The body fights back by adjusting to the stress, which allows for enhanced adaptation.
3) Rest is crucial during the resistance stage to prevent negative consequences such as overtraining, injury, or lack of adaptation.
