Applied Exercise Physiology Laboratory
The Applied Exercise Physiology Laboratory is dedicated to studying the roles of physical activity and exercise training on muscular strength and performance as well as metabolic capacity in various populations. The focus of our research is to explore physical and physiological adaptations to exercise intervention and to determine the role of these changes in improving human health and physical well-being. Our lab also provides students the opportunity to bridge the gap between science and application. The laboratory is used to assist students in their learning of Exercise Physiology, Exercise Prescription and Principles of Strength and Conditioning. Students participate in various on-going research and are encouraged to learn about the topics performed beyond what is taught in the classroom.
