Cardiopulmonary testing is the gold standard of functional assessment of the football player.

In this unique event, we will explore this topic from different perspectives:

  • Technical Insight: Sports physicians and pulmonologists will share their knowledge and experience on the importance of cardiopulmonary testing in the assessment of athletic performance.
  • Practical Vision: Athletic trainers will offer a practical look at how cardiopulmonary testing affects performance on the field and how it can be used to optimize training.
  • Direct Experience: We will have the privilege of hearing two Serie A coaches share their first-hand experience on using cardiopulmonary testing to maximize team performance.
