Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The design, implementation, evaluation, and guidance of exercise programs constitute a purely scientific process. The correct implementation of basic exercise principles—considering all the biological and psychological factors that interact with each other—makes exercise programs effective and, above all, safe for the general population (e.g., children and adolescents, young adults, middle-aged and older individuals).
The main objective of this Special Issue is to highlight the importance and efficiency of exercise programs for health promotion (physical and mental) and, consequently, for the prevention and rehabilitation of different chronic diseases.
We invite you to contribute to this Special Issue by presenting your work on healthy populations or individuals with chronic diseases, including original articles, case studies, narrative or systematic reviews, or meta-analyses.
Prof. Dr. Vassilis Gerodimos
Dr. Konstantina Karatrantou
