This page is to promote Athletic Training, Physical Education, and Health, via technology.

I am located at Lamar University, in Beaumont, TX; where I provide Athletic Training services to Division I- NCAA inter-collegiate athletes. My primary sport responsibilities are Men's and Women's Cross-Country and Track and Field.

How do you feel about the current Health conditions in today's youth? Do you think this is directly related to to Physical Education?

Dr. Abernathy: I believe physical education in schools is a part of the current health conditions of children today, but I also believe there are several other related issues: food preparation in the home, lack of nutritional knowledge, availability of unhealthy fast foods, and lack of organized family time together to name a few. What do others think?
