Promotion of Related Research
Learn more about how we are on the cutting edge of the science of healthy air travel and the role that exercise and physical activity plays in commercial flight. You will be able to find information on physical activity amenities at U.S. hub airports as well as news about our involvement with the American Fitness Index.

Educational Initiatives
Do you want to know more about physical activity opportunities at airports? Have you struggled with medical issues and the flying public?  What are some strategies that you can employ to reduce the impact of jet lag on athletic performance? All of these questions can be answered by checking out some of the presentations we have produced or co-produced since 2007. Stay tuned for even more good information to be shared in 2011!

Practical Application of Exercise Science
Our most exciting Task Force objective! This page tells you more about our airport walking program and how you can implement one at an airport near you.  Designed especially for the busy airport executive, we can show YOU how to turn layovers into workouts and help disgruntled passengers blow off some steam in a healthy way. Better yet, let us implement the program for you! Click on this link to see how.

Although the American College of Sports Medicine Task Force on Healthy Air Travel is brand new, we are already making news. Be sure to learn more about our efforts under “Task Force News” where you will find press releases and details about the partnerships we are developing throughout the commercial air travel industry.

Finally, allow us to introduce ourselves as your Task Force – a talented group of health scientists dedicated to improving the health of the flying public through physical activity and good nutrition.

Welcome aboard!
