Tom Warrender used to lecture on Physiology at Birmingham City University, and is known as ‘The Human Guinea Pig’ because he puts himself through all sorts of medical and sporting tests in the name of science. He’s also the founder of Classroom Medics, who specialise in exciting, hands on workshops that bring real sports science and medical equipment into the classroom. They seek to engage the next generation of athletes and healthcare scientists, as well as to help pupils make more informed decisions about their career aspirations and lifestyle choices.
Talk to pupils about their sporting heroes and they always seem interested and engaged. Combine that with interactive demonstrations of their training methods using real scientific kit (that also enables them to see the consequences of poor lifestyle decisions) and you really do have a captive audience.
