Menopause in Motion: a workplace exercise feasibility study
Join us for this open lecture, reviewing the results from past scientific studies on workplace exercise interventions in menopausal women.
The lecture will review the results from past scientific studies on workplace exercise interventions in menopausal women, and present a recent study undertaken by the Sport and Exercise science team at Oxford Brookes on the feasibility of an exercise intervention, its main findings and follow-up results two years later.
The main novelty of the study is the focus on exercising during work time. It is also a multidisciplinary study, using knowledge from sport physiology, psychology and physiotherapy and using qualitative and quantitative methods.
Dr Anne Delextrat has been a Senior Lecturer in Sport and Exercise science for 21 years, and has had significant contributions to research in the areas of injury prevention, exercise physiology, and the clinical benefits of fitness for specialised populations.
Dr Adam Bibbey is an Associate Professor in Sport and Exercise Psychology at Oxford Brookes University. One of his research areas is focused on colour blindness, and he has worked with international football associations, local schools and the government to educate coaches and teachers on how to support colour blind individuals. His work has been discussed in the Houses of Parliament and has also led to policy change.
