Ball State Clinical Exercise Physiology Program

Summer is in full swing for the current students in the program! They will take their midterms this week (a week late, due to scheduling conflicts).

We are eager to meet our new students in just about two months as well as welcome a new faculty member within the CEP program!

The first year CEP graduate students are attending the ISCVPR conference today!

CARDIAC REHAB IS EVOLVING — AND IT’S ABOUT TIME.

What if patients didn’t have to choose between
👉 getting care
👉 and living their life?

This study shows:
💻 Hybrid cardiac rehab (clinic + virtual) =
✔ Same attendance
✔ Same fitness gains
✔ Same health improvements

🔥 That’s HUGE for older adults who struggle with access.

💡 If you’re a CEP or student:
This is exactly why staying connected to the research matters.

CEPA membership =
📚 Access to JCEP
🧠 Real clinical evidence
🚀 A way to grow in the field

🫀 Exercise is medicine…
But only if patients can actually access it.
