The
ASEPNewsletter
is devoted to informative articles and news items about exercise physiology.
It is a monthly magazine of news, opinions, exercise physiology professionals,
and events that shape exercise physiology. While it contains views and
opinions of the Editor
who oversees the ASEP Internet Websites, visitors can have a voice as well.
We welcome interested practitioners, researchers, and academicians to e-mail
the Publisher their thoughts and ideas or respond directly via the ASEP

Dear
Colleague,
I am
pleased to invite you to the first annual American Society of Exercise
Physiologists meeting and to provide you with the ANNOUNCEMENT and CALL
FOR ABSTRACTS.
The
meeting will be Oct. 2 and 3, 1998, at The College of St. Scholastica in
Duluth, MN. Presented by the Department of Exercise Physiology at St. Scholastica,
the gathering will provide:
·
an overview of Exercise Physiology;
·
methods to professionalize the discipline; and the
·
opportunity for researchers to present their data.
To
facilitate professional and scientific interaction, the Organizing Committee
has arranged a distinctive program of speakers, oral presentations, and
poster sessions. The program is designed for all practitioners in exercise
physiology. The setting chosen for this meeting is Duluth, MN. This city
is in the heart of God’s country. Early October is usually the height of
the autumn color season, and St. Scholastica’s campus on a ridge overlooking
Lake Superior is never more beautiful.
I invite
you to attend and encourage your active participation. I look forward to
welcoming you to the beautiful and exciting city of Duluth for an instructive,
productive, adventurous, and enjoyable meeting.
With
best wishes,
Tommy
Boone, PhD, MPH

The
"Certified" Exercise Physiologist (EPC)
In
the near future, after adoption by ASEP of a national certification test
for all graduates of an approved exercise physiology curriculum, the Certified
Exercise Physiologist will be recognized as an educated professional with
specialized academic (college/university) training in research and application
of exercise physiology to a variety of career options.
You
have the power!
You
have the powerto make exercise physiology a profession of choice with
respect and value to the public. If your response is "yes, but..." then
if you have not applied for membership, you have in effect given away your
power. We believe that there is no reason to give it away to organizations
that are not exercise physiology driven. Hence, when you hear yourself
and others saying "yes, but...what about this or that sports medicine organization?"
What if the organization did not exist, would you then belong to ASEP?
Is the sports medicine organization worth the professionalization of exercise
physiology?
The
1,2,3,4.......
Exercise
physiologists need to stop wasting time.
Procrastination
will keep us from reaching our goals/objectives in a timely fashion..
Don't
put off becoming a member!
Let
us think ahead and arrange our schedules in order of importance and need.
"No
one plans to fail.
They
just fail to plan."
The
bottom line, we must plan for our future. We need to know where we are
going. Why not get involved and help with this worthy cause. Get others
involved. Do some positive networking. Focus on what can be, not what is.
Be positive and get out from under the idea that "bigger is better" thinking.
So what if ASEP is a small organization versus other sports medicine groups?
The prize is not in the numbers unless the number per se is more important
than the product. Exercise physiologists must find ways to customize who
they are and what they do to get where they want to go. What is missing
in our thinking today, regarding ASEP, is where it will take us in the
future. We need to focus on the future and dream the dream that no one
has thought of yet. Don't sit around waiting for others to do it for you.
Get with ASEP!
Thedrive
to win overcomes
all weaknesses. Dreams are tomorrows reality. Remember those who dreamed
to fly! What about putting a man on the moon? Or, better yet, is it possible
to have an organization just for exercise physiologists? ANSWER: You bet
it is possible. In fact, it exists now. How can you help exercise physiologists
who belong to ASEP? Well, the answer is simple if we understand the "3"
rules of succeeding by our own efforts.
Rule
#1: We are the professionals who can solve our problems.
Rule
#2:We must want to solve our problems.
Rule
#3: We don't have to reinforce what we have been.
What
about failures?
Remember,
it is OK to fail as long as we keep trying. ASEP is small now but it will
grow! There will be failures. But, the reality is that the quality of our
profession will depend on the quality and drive of our thinking. I believe
it was Abraham Lincoln who:
-
failed
in business in 1831,
-
defeated
for legislature in 1832,
-
failed
in business in 1833,
-
suffered
a nervous breakdown in 1836,
-
defeated
for speaker in 1838,
-
defeated
for elector in 1840,
-
defeated
for Congress in 1843 and 1848,
-
defeated
for Senate in 1855,
-
defeated
for Vice President in 1856,
-
defeated
for Senate in 1858..............
...........before
being elected President of the United States in 1860. Hence, failures are
nothing more than steps toward success.
All
we have to do is keep our thoughts positive. To this end, now that we have
a dream, let us begin living it. Now is the time to support ASEP, not later.
How
can you make it happen? Again, 1,2,3,4....
1.
Get involved.
2.
Just do it!
3.
Make time in your schedule for it.
4.
Commit yourself to seeing it through till the end.
