| About the USOC/ACSM Consensus Development
Program USOC/ACSM Human Performance Summits are convened at the ACSM annual meeting to bring together coaches and researchers to evaluate available scientific and coaching information and solve issues related to human performance in sport. The resulting USOC/ACSM Consensus statements are intended to advance understanding of factors or issues related to human performance in sport and to be useful to coaches and other sport participants. USOC/ACSM Consensus Statements are prepared by a non-advocate panel of experts, based on 1)structured discussion by coaches and researchers in the areas relevant to the consensus questions and 2) questions and statements from ACSM conference attendees during open discussion periods that are part of the public session. This statement is an independent report of the panel and is neither a policy statement of the USOC nor the ACSM. |
