Kinetic Kidz

The Kinetic Kidz program is intended to promote lifelong physical activity among youth. Initially, personalized physical activity evaluation and participation sessions will be employed to reaffirm the importance of regular engagement. The benefits of such participation will be reiterated through these individualized appointments, whereby youth learn through active gaming and other forms of physical activity.

Research in this lab examines the effects of physical activity on cognitive performance, energy expenditure, and relationship between metabolic risk factors and how physical activity can reverse its effects.
