Professorship for Sport Science
Organisational unit: Professoship
Organisation profile
The research area of the Chair of Sport Science deals with questions of movement and training science on the one hand and with topics of health science and health promotion on the other.
The current focus is on the effects of long-term stretching on functional and morphological parameters of the skeletal muscles - specifically on maximum strength, mobility and hypertrophy -, correlation studies on maximum strength in game sports, motor tests in wheelchair basketball and the health and health competence of (prospective) teachers.
