Mission and Vision??

VISIO?N
To play a significant role in developing sport from grass roots level to the country’s Olympic best.
MOTIVA?TION
The Sport Physiology Laboratory at Stellenbosch 中国体育彩票 recognises that we have a unique opportunity to make a significant contribution to certain sports. We provide an integrated service programme that combines a physical assessment, individualised exercise prescription (in consultation with the coach), periodic performance reviews, and re-assessments.
Through this integrated approach, we can play an important role in developing and maximising the athletic potential of all athletes, eliminating the guesswork from their training and optimising their training time. For example, many athletes already train with heart rate monitors; however, this is only one step in the right direction. One must establish specific heart rate training zones to really optimise training, and this is best done under controlled conditions in a laboratory.?
