BIOGRAPHY:
Gerasimos Grivas is an Exercise Physiologist of Sports Excellence of Regeneration & Progress at First Department of Orthopaedics, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, School of Medicine, Attikon University Hospital, Athens, Greece. He received his Master’s and PhD from university of Thessaly in 2007 and 2018, respectively. His Master’s thesis has focused on detraining on deconditioning of cardiovascular parameters in middle and long distance athletes. During his PhD, he investigated on the effect of different concurrent aerobic and strength training programmes on physical fitness in men. His research interests include also: a) how to maximize the performance of athletes, b) to examine physiological and biomechanical factors, c) to examine different training methods, d) nutrition protocols before and after a game or a race, e) recovery, environmental conditions, shoes, and equipment and f) physical activity in untrained individuals. Dr Grivas is the author or the co-author in more than 15 papers pubPished and has presented more than 35 papers in international conferences in the areas of physical conditioning, team sports, evaluation and health
