Sports Technology Laboratory

The Sport Technology Laboratory is used for teaching and research focused on monitoring and evaluating the effects of physical exercise on the human body. The laboratory is equipped with state-of-the-art instruments for conducting exercise tests, including metabolic analyzers, devices for monitoring muscle oxygenation and lactate levels, as well as a treadmill and a cycling ergometer.

During classes, students perform advanced physiological measurements on themselves in the same way they are carried out in real-world practice. The laboratory also supports bachelor’s and master’s theses focused on sports science and physical load assessment.
