Chris Eschbach, Ph.D., HFI
Director of the Human Performance Laboratory
Dr. Eschbach, Associate Professor of Exercise and Sport Science at Meredith College, has extensive experience with both the scientific and competitive side of sport. Not only does Dr. Eschbach have the knowledge that comes with a Ph.D. in Exercise Physiology but also an athletic background that demonstrates an ability to apply that knowledge. Being an overall champion at over 50 triathlons since 1996 allows for a unique combination of knowledge, combining research and testing with application to "real world" settings via competition. It is this combination that has allowed him to understand what it takes to bring together the science of exercise with the art of training.
Very few laboratories have an open door policy to support athletes in their quest for improvement. At Meredith College Dr. Eschbach has designed a testing facility that provides athletes with the tools to optimize their performance.
