The weekend of July 31st and August 1st was the 3rd Annual Strength and Conditioning Conference for the Medical Professions. On Friday the the 31st the conference took place in the Memorial Dome on the campus of ETSU. There were approximately 40 participants learning the techniques of the Olympic Lifts and there supplementary exercises. The whole day was focused on the practical application of these lifts to athletic performance. The second day was the theory day, again all lectures were focused on athletic performance. The Center of Excellence of Sport Science and Coach Education were very fortunate to have some very fine speakers who gave cutting edge information to the attendees. A large contingent of delegates came from Pro Strength and Speed in Rogersville and this group seemed to enjoy the conference especially the practical day. We in the Center wish to thank all the participants and especially the speakers who gave of their time to give their knowledge to a very attentive audience. Our next conference will be the Coaches College to be held on the 18th and 19th of December.
