This course will provide students with fundamental knowledge underlying the benefits of strength and conditioning. Emphasis is placed on the design and implementation of effective strength and conditioning programs for performance as well as health and fitness. We will apply the multi-disciplinary knowledge in the science of exercise, physical activity, biomechanics and bioenergetics to various populations to identify how they impact performance.

This course introduces students to basic research methods including: the scientific method, types of research, steps of research process, validity, reading and critiquing peer reviewed sources, basic statistical analysis and function, communication of research, and the ethics of research. In addition, students will be exposed to a number of current research labs in the Kinesiology Department.
