Lon Kilgore Ph.D.
Teaching
Dr. Kilgore endeavors to
provide evidence based teachings in anatomy, physiology, and practical
physiological assessment to students from a variety of majors who wish
to function as coaches, personal trainers, exercise clinicians, and researchers.
Of particular interest is a concerted effort to restructure the approach
to teaching weight training in gyms, classrooms, and clinics across the
USA.
Research
Dr. Kilgore’s long-term interest
has historically been in the area of Heat Shock Proteins and their role
in muscular remodeling, heart disease, and infection. An emerging area
of interest is the design and execution of a systematic and simple series
of analyses of weight training paradigms in order to substantiate or refute
the current and frequently challenged authoritative guidelines currently
in place. A complimentary area of interest is the over-training syndrome.
Contact
If you have a question for
me and you are not local, just e-mail
me, I try very hard to respond to every one of the hundred or so e-mails
I get each day. If you are posing a question needing a long response,
it may take a bit of time to get your response. I'm notoriously difficult
to get on the phone since my work days are split between classrooms, laboratorys
(teaching and research), weightrooms, meetings, my drawing studio, my writing
garrett, the library, and more. I do have about 10 hours per week of
"office hours".
This time is set aside specifically to personally meet with anyone
who shows up at my office door to discuss class materials, science, sport
theory, academic advising or pretty much any topic of interest to the visitor.
