For this episode, I interview Dr. Tim Coffey an Assistant Professor of Kinesiology at Longwood University in Farmville, Virginia. He serves as Longwood University’s Faculty Athletics Representative to the NCAA. Dr. Coffey’s teaching duties include Biomechanics, and Civic Engagement Through Sport and Exercise, and his primary research focuses on lower extremity injury risk reduction and the role that strength and conditioning plays in this reduction.That’s a long introduction, isn’t it? I swear this guy has like 23 degrees or something. Good grief.We discuss the following: What is biomechanics and what do you study? How is this useful for sports? How does inactivity impact sports performance? Strength and conditioning coaches - what do they do? How does inactivity impact sports injury rates? In other words, why do football players need some time to get in condition before playing. What types of activities can people do at home to stay in shape? Getting up to get a beer out of the fridge does not count. Civic Engagement Through Sport and Exercise - What is this course about? Dr. Coffey brought up that UNO has a phenomenal biomechanics department, something I did not know. We also discuss the future of biomechanics, including “exoskeletons”.Please Subscribe!I would really appreciate it if you could subscribe to our podcasts!Leave a Review! You could go out on the Apple podcast app and leave a review for us as well. Maybe send us feedback by making a comment on this article.
