Biography

Dr. Cameron Munger’s primary interest lies in the kinetic and physiological responses to acute and short-term methods of resistance training. His primary line of research is in eccentric overload and his secondary interest is in postactivation potentiation. He also assesses the performances of a variety of collegiate, elite, and professional athletes (sprinting, volleyball, football, rugby, softball, and hockey players). He holds his Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist certification through the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA). You may spot him hunting, fishing, and spending time with his family in the off-hours.
