We have been working in our Human Performance Lab. on specific force plate testing protocols for HSU Cowboy Football. This will give us metrics such as Reactive Strength Index, and Power, to help improve player health, injury reduction and performance!
Congrats to Chad Grubbs for receiving his 25-Year Award from CSC today.
Chad has traveled thousands of miles for our athletes and written thousands of words about them.
A thousand words of thanks still wouldn’t be enough.Thank you, Chad, for everything you have done for HSU.
Welcome to the HSU Exercise Science Program & Human Performance Lab. Stay connected with the latest student, faculty, research, and lab highlights.
I know there’s been much speculation about me and my job situation the last couple of days. It’s true I was contacted about a potential opportunity this weekend, but after celebrating a big win against our rivals with players I love like family, I knew in my heart I couldn’t leave the University of Kentucky right now. I have a great job at a place I love, and I get to work with the best administration and greatest fan base in college football right where I’m at. I’m excited to say I’m a Wildcat!
Combine this stuff with high level athletics and you can aid in the development of dangerous female athletes.
Feeding them palatable “speed & agility” ain’t it.
Give them the real stuff.
Real S&C is a cheat code for MS/HS girls.

Time to share some 'OPEN ACCESS' gold.
This beauty is 4 years old but is a great introduction to the research around the impact of msk clinicians' words/messages on clinical outcomes.
Spoiler: they have immense power, both to heal and to HARM!

A disturbing trend in training. Focusing on weaknesses in a force-velocity profile means you're wallowing in low quality training. You need to train strengths to potentiate and bring along improvements in the weaknesses.
New review “…highlights that the current definition of muscle quality should be expanded upon as to encompass all possible factors of muscle quality.”
