While Todd Hagobians research through the years has been published in several journals, none of them had an impact like his latest, initially published in the Journal of Applied Physiology and written about in The New York Times. <\/p>\n
That study conducted through the Cal Poly kinesiology department focused on the impact exercise has on appetites. <\/p>\n
That one article in The New York Times had more readers than all of my publications in all these peer review journals, he said. <\/p>\n
Hagobian, who grew up in Fresno, has been an assistant professor at Cal Polys kinesiology department since 2009. Before that, he was a post-doctoral research fellow at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. <\/p>\n
An avid bicyclist, Hagobian lives in San Luis Obispo with his wife, Nicole who also teaches kinesiology at Cal Poly and their two children. <\/p>\n
We spoke to him at his Cal Poly office about exercise and his latest research. <\/p>\n
Q: What got you into this field? <\/p>\n
A: Like anyone in this field, I probably started exercising a lot and wanted to learn more about it. And then I realized the field is much bigger than performance. So I moved away from performance and more toward obesity management treatment and chronic disease. <\/p>\n
Q: I see where you rode like five hours at a time in college. <\/p>\n
A: It was really after college when I started doing it. And it wasnt really five hours a day. On the weekends it was up to five to six hours. And in the week it was anywhere from one to two or three hours. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
