Objectives
Our research group aims to make a significant impact in the field of exercise science by enhancing our understanding of how exercise positively influences health and fitness across diverse populations, including elite athletes, the general public, and school-aged children. We are committed to providing healthcare and coaching professionals with evidence-based strategies to achieve health and fitness goals, which help optimize athletic performance and promote healthy lifestyles.
In terms of education, our research group aspires to equip students with the professional knowledge, skills, and leadership necessary to meet the evolving demands of the physical education field. We strive for a balanced approach that integrates theoretical concepts with applied exercise science, delivering practical content that empowers students to translate academic knowledge into effective real-world exercise practices.
