The visit aimed to provide pupils with hands-on experience and insights into various physical fitness tests. The day involved an exploration of cutting-edge assessments such as V02 max testing, countermovement jumps, grip strength measurements, mid-thigh max pull strength assessments, and psychometric testing.
Distinguished sports science lecturers, Viki Penpraze and Nairn Scobie, guided pupils with their knowledge and played a pivotal role in facilitating the learning process, offering valuable explanations and demonstrations of the various tests conducted in the sports science labs.
Pupils were not only exposed to state-of-the-art equipment, but the visit also provided them with a deeper understanding of the scientific principles behind physical fitness testing.
Strength & Conditioning Coach, Callum Harris, commented:
“Overall, the visit to the University of Glasgow’s Sports Science Labs was a memorable and educational experience for our Higher PE pupils, fostering a greater appreciation for the intersection of theory and practice in the field of sports science.”
