Sport & Exercise Science

Our Mission:

The Sport and Exercise Science Division of ASAHPERD aims to serve members by providing relevant, educational, and research-based learning opportunities that explore best-practices through which professionals can improve the health and fitness of those they serve. 

What We Do:

Through programs, presentations, and articles we aim to highlight the physiological mechanisms underlying healthy living and disease prevention allowing one to understand how to address psychological or physical barriers related to exercise and how to effectively design a safe and inclusive exercise program.

How to Get Involved:

Sport and Exercise Science professionals can get involved through ASAHPERD membership by attending, presenting, and participating in Fall and Spring Conferences, or manuscript submissions to the biannually printed ASAHPERD Journal. Additionally, individuals can serve by promoting sport and exercise science involvement in one's school, community and profession.
