How Good Are You Really?

As part of our Specialist Talk series, we are delighted to be joined by Dr Bettina Karsten from University of Greenwich. Bettina is a specialist in Endurance testing and performance and is going to help you answer the question, "How good are you really?".  

With a background in exercise rehabilitation and personal training, Bettina joined University of Greenwich as a Lecturer in Exercise Physiology and was promoted to Senior Lecturer in 2005.

As a former volleyball player, swimmer and personal trainer, Bettina clearly has a love of sports! We're lucky she now has a focus on cycling. Bettina successfully completed her PhD entitled 'Analysis of Reliability and Validity of Critical Power Testing in the Field'.
