Get paid to measure your body composition and aerobic capacity, plus six months of free exercise training

Submitted by Sarah J. Cosgrove

K-State researchers are seeking individuals who are in the Reserves or National Guard — any military branch — to participate in the Army Training at High-Intensity Study

Research participants will receive six months of exercise training for free. The research project is designed to compare the effectiveness of high-intensity functional training to Army Physical Readiness Training in military personnel for improving body composition, fitness, cardiovascular health and psychosocial outcomes.

All exercise testing and training will take place at Kansas State University in Manhattan. Participants are eligible for a free month of unlimited classes at K-State CrossFit upon completion of the six months of exercise training.

Contact Sarah Cosgrove at 480 326-7912 or sasteven@k-state.edu, or Katie Heinrich at 785 532-7771 or kmhphd@k-state.edu if you are interested in participating in the study.
