| Health Promotion Outreach TigerFit - Dr Pete Grandjean oversees the TigerFit outreach program that is a curriculum-based program designed to provide hands-on training for students in Health & Human Performance and to provide comprehensive health and fitness profiles for Alabamians. In addition, the TigerFit Program has been designed for conducting research in cardiovascular disease risk reduction through exercise and physical activity interventions.
 The TigerFit Program is a collaborative effort between the Department of Kinesiology, Baptist Health Care Family Medicine Residency Program and Hughston Clinic. Health & fitness assessments include a physician exam, complete blood profile, pulmonary function & body composition assessments, graded exercise test with blood pressure and ECG and an orthopedic evaluation. Clients are provided their results and an individualized exercise prescription. Current client groups include the Lee County Sheriff's Department, Auburn University Police, the Auburn City Fire and Police Departments and many individuals from all over the Southeast.
Exercise Behavior Outreach - Dr. Danielle Wadsworth, from the Health Promotion program area, is proposing a University Fitness Program for AU Faculty and Staff. In this program, Dr. Wadsworth will implement a behavioral change component by establishing and enhancing self-regulation skills using internet communication as well as other techniques. She is looking for funding to implement this program.
