The present research group is a group that was created after having been collaborating previously, in some cases, for more than a decade. In general, this has already resulted in the production of several doctoral, master's and degree theses, as well as many other scientific papers presented at international congresses. It is worth mentioning that its members are currently jointly undertaking research projects obtained from public calls for research proposals. It also should be noted that, as a result of the hard work of its researchers, hundreds of articles have been published and indexed in the Journal Citation Reports.

The research activity of this group focuses on the analysis and development of conditioning and physical exercise protocols and activities that can have positive effects on health, and its preservation, in different groups, i.e., from athletes to sedentary people.

The concept of health analysed in this group is one that integrates the holistic conception of the human being, i.e. it contemplates the physical, psychological and social dimensions, addressing how physical exercise can prevent illness and promote health in such different social segments and in all types of populations, such as population with special needs (physically, mentally and sensorially disabled, people with metabolic, pulmonary, osteomuscular, psychological dysfuncctions, etc.), as well as human beings in their different evolutionary stages, such as childhood, adolescence, adulthood (special processes such as pregnancy, pre- and post- menopause) and old age.

Important milestones to be evaluated, which are already being studied, are the influence of physical exercise and sport, as well as their absence, on oxidative stress, the immune system, the lipid profile, the perception of well-being, cognitive, social and personality deterioration, acute and chronic pain, body composition (fat, muscle mass and bone mass), and motor and functional performance. In addition to these milestones, the research action also aims to evaluate what kind of programmes, materials and aspects of dietary supplementation could be more effective and safe to improve overall health and motor performance. 

In addition to all these milestones, and as mentioned above, the research group already has extensive scientific experience. As a result, numerous scientific and informative papers have been published, as well as active participation in committees, conferences and seminar of international relevance. In fact, several social media outlets have highlighted our findings and several private companies are collaborating in several ways to support our research work.
