Exercise Physiology Testing & Training

The laboratory contains several cycle ergometers for aerobic exercise training, a modified Krogh one-legged ergometer, resistance exercise testing and training devices, two YoYo Technologies inertial ergometers, and a specially designed rigid chair, coupled with two computers interfaced with a force transducer and an ultrasound machine for the measurement of in vivo tendon mechanical properties.  This room is outfitted with a 42 inch LCD flat-panel TV and two clinical stations for the performance of clinical procedures (eg, biopsies, catheter placements).
