STEM Presentation, June 5, 2013, Matt Wilson

Darby's dad, Matt Wilson, is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist as well as an endurance runner.  He shared with the students how much STEM he uses to make athletes and non athletes "faster, stronger and better"!  To demonstrate the different energy systems ( phosphagen, glycolysis, and oxidative) in the human body, we went outside and two of our fastest runners competed against a relay team of ten more average runners.  This was all part of his explanation of how he uses a scientific, fact-based approach to help athletes and non-athletes reach their full potential.
