University of Florida Exercise Physiology Lab
The University of Florida Exercise Physiology Lab studies how the body responds to physical activity, focusing on cardiovascular, muscular, and metabolic functions. Researchers perform tests to assess fitness levels, muscle strength, and energy use, often using specialized equipment to measure heart rate, oxygen consumption, and muscle activity. The goal is to better understand human performance, improve health, and develop effective exercise programs. This research benefits athletes, patients, and the general population by providing insights into optimal training, rehabilitation, and overall wellness.
