The past 40 years have been a period of explosive growth in knowledge and application for the field of exercise physiology. This growth is reflected by the volume of research performed and the expansion of exercise physiology principles into interdisciplinary and translational research. Figure 1

The European Group of Pediatric Work Physiology is celebrating the 50th anniversary of its inception in Berlin (Germany), 1967. It was a modest beginning, which placed the field of pediatric exercise physiology “on the exercise physiology map.” We take this opportunity to provide a brief history of

At many institutions introductory exercise physiology courses are required for all kinesiology students. The laboratory portion of these courses usually involves development of knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSAs) connected with content presented in lecture. Due to scalability issues, the Kinesiology Department at California State University Monterey Bay cannot offer traditional laboratory experiences. Therefore, online and hybrid laboratory experiences were created to provide similar opportunities for students, address scalability issues, and enhance student engagement and learning. Creation of these carefully crafted laboratory experiences allowed instructors to (a) highlight and explain key foundational principles, (b) provide experiences involving practical application of material presented in lecture, and (c) present students with additional learning experiences while maintaining high learner expectations. The following article outlines the process used to create these virtual laboratory experiences for students in an undergraduate introductory exercise physiology course.

Kinesiology is an academic discipline with a body of content that can be drawn on to support professions and to solve important public health problems. The Kansas State Physical Activity Systems Framework defines a new approach to structure the discipline. Central to the framework is the rejection of a kinesiology subdisciplinary approach and the adoption of an integrated “cell-to-society” systems approach. Each level of physical activity systems is addressed in undergraduate and graduate education and research. Supporting the framework are two research and education teams: exercise physiology and exercise behavioral science. These teams provide core integrated academic discipline content expertise and expertise for integrating professional application areas, such as public health. The framework has evolved over 20 years at Kansas State University, where today the Department of Kinesiology delivers high-quality extramurally-funded research; BS, MS, MPH, and PhD programs; and outreach in a cost-effective manner.

Within pediatric medicine, clinical exercise physiology is a discipline in which the integrated response of various physiological systems (pulmonary, cardiovascular, hematologic, metabolic, and musculoskeletal) is objectively assessed and analyzed at rest, during progressive exercise, and during
