Just figured it would be interesting to see what everyone does around here.
I’m a student, I’ll be finishing my bachelor this summer and I’ve applied for a master’s degree in exercise physiology. Hopefully I’ll get in :D

What do you do?
Hi Karky,
Good to hear you will be pursuing your master’s. You will do good.
Pick a school which has a sold research program and a doctorate program.Some colleges lets you do your Ph.D without you having to get your Master’s and then move to Ph.D.
I manage a Fitness Center. It’s a lot of management and less of actual training or education part, atleast not at the advanced level we talk about here. I work in a gym 8 hrs/day and then go back to workout to the same gym. Not many people get to do their hobby for a living I guess.
I don’t think anyone in Norway skips their master and goes straight for their Ph.D.. heard of it in the US, but never in Norway.
Not a lot to choose from in Norway, there’s pretty much 3 places with programs that are good. Fortunately there’s a good one right here where I live. They are really into training and heart failure. They are the people behind 4x4 intervals if you’ve heard of it.
Mumford:
Neuroscience, huh? That’s really interesting! For a while I was thinking about applying for that. I’ve taken a class in my movement science bachelor about neuroscience and I’m currently taking a class called biological psychology, both a lot about the brain and the rest of the nervous system.

it’s funny cause our textbook is named “biological psychology”
i actually wanted to do something like you, but our school doesn’t offer that major
we have one relevant course, a nutrition class which i’m taking next semester.
a pianist from Norway came over to hold a recital and a master’s class for us today - i just got back.

I think Blade is from Norway. For some reason, you don’t see too many Americans interested in pursuing a Ph.D. It’s mostly people from other countries that pursue their doctorates.
I’m web developer(c#, asp.net), middle size financial company in Tel-Aviv
You live in quite an amazing country, Anatoly. I was lucky enough to take a trip to Israel with my wife and her family. We didn’t spend any time in Tel Aviv, as we were only in the country for 10 days and we came primarily for the historical sites . It was an incredible trip!
In my spare time, I like to backpack in the wilderness, and I perform improvisational comedy. My nerdier side also demands that I play video games from time to time.

What is 4*4 intervals?
Who is Blade?
basically endurance training. 4 min work, 3 min rest, and you do that 4 times. work at about 90% of max, rest at about 75%. They’ve tested it on everything from soccer players, cross country skiiers to patients with pretty serious heart failure and it works pretty well. They are advocates of intense endurance training even for patients with heart failure. (not everyone, of course, but they think the current low intensity standard recommendations are often too conservative)
