Exercise Physiology Teaching Laboratory
- Students in several Kinesiology courses perform a full range of fitness assessment tests using the Exercise Metabolism Lab. Students also learn how to perform graded exercise tests to screen for cardiovascular disease, and graduate students learn how to interpret data from metabolic data collection. Students also practice these skills through involvement in the lab’s research projects.
