Facilities: Research Laboratory
The Exercise Physiology Research Laboratory has 2400 square-feet of space and is housed in the Health and Human Performance building at UNCG. The laboratory includes state of the art instrumentation for:
- Resting and exercise oxygen consumption assessment and monitoring
- ECG monitoring and recording
- Assessment of vascular reactivity using ultrasound
- Pulmonary assessment
- Body composition determination
- Performance measures on cycle ergometers and treadmills
Collaborative links with the Nutrition Department provide access to a DXA for bone density assessment and body composition analysis, which may also include hydrostatic weighing, multifrequency BIA and skinfolds.
