The Exercise Physiology lab is housed in the Health and Kinesiology building.
The 3,100 square foot facility is fully equipped to analyze physiological, metabolic, and molecular responses to a myriad of exercise interventions.
Our many techniques allow for a translational look into muscular adaptations to exercise, linking physiological outcomes to molecular responses.
Exercise Equipment
- Lode Valiant Sport
- Lode Excalibur Sport
- Freemotion Leg Press
- Freemotion Leg Extension
Procedure Room
This dedicated space is used for the collection of biological materials. This includes: muscle biopsies and blood draws.
Environmental Chamber
With our environmental Chamber, we are capable of simulating a broad range of environmental conditions. -20 to -60C; 10%-90%, up to 12,000ft.
Hydrostatic Weigh Tank
As the gold standard in body composition measurement, we use the Exertech Underwater Weighing Equipment electronic load cell system.
Metabolic Cart
ParvoMedics TrueOne 2400 is a compact, integrated metabolic measurement system for cardiopulmonary stress testing, indirect calorimetry, and maximal O2 consumption measurement.
Isokinetic Dynamometer
Humac Norm is an Isokinetic device providing valid, reliable, and reproducible objective measurements of muscular strength and endurance.
Exercise Biology Lab
We have a 425 ft2, fully equipped wet lab for analysis of biological material.
