Biology Grad Student’s Thesis Explores Game Day Readiness in Female Athletes
Nick Westcott, our Biology Grad is the first researcher to assess the effect of resistance priming on female athletes. The implications of his data are important to strength and conditioning coaches who might seek to apply these practices with their professional female athletes.
What was so exciting about Nick’s project on the effects of game-day resistance priming was that it was directly related to his work as the strength and conditioning coach for the CU varsity athletes,” says Department of Biology Associate Professor Jeff Dawson, one of Westcott’s co-supervisors.
