General Sessions
Thirty educational sessions in a two-track format keep attendees updated on the most relevant and current information in the field. Bridge science and practical application through enlightening research-based presentations by well-respected sport and exercise scientists and practitioners including: Steven Fleck, Jose Antonio, Juan Carlos Santana, Donald Chu, Heidi Skolnik, Thomas Incledon, David Sandler, and Jeff Stout.
Pre-conference symposia
In addition to the general sessions, there are eight concentrated pre-conference symposia to choose from on Wednesday, July 6.

Wall-to-wall exhibitors fill the massive space with strength training equipment, nutritional items, educational products, computer software, and fitness gear. This is a great opportunity to interact with equipment providers to preview new and innovative products.
