Andrew R. Coggan, Ph.D., is an internationally recognized exercise physiologist. He has published numerous scientific articles on the physiological responses and adaptations to acute and chronic exercise in healthy untrained individuals, athletes, the elderly, and various patient populations (e.g., persons with heart failure). These studies have been cited more than 5,500 times in the scientific literature, with 17 of them achieving Citation Classic status (i.e., cited more than 100 times apiece). A former national-caliber masters cyclist and TT record holder, Dr. Coggan is also widely recognized as one of the leading experts on the use of bicycle-mounted power meters. In 2006, he was honored for his applied sports science efforts with USA Cycling’s Sport Science Award and by being named as one of three Finalists for the US Olympic Committee’s Doc Councilman Award.
