The IHPRA's Man of the Month is Ken Daley. He is Associate Professor and Chair of the Department of Exercise and Sport Sciences at Maharishi University of Management in Fairfield. Author or editor of numerous sport manuals, he is also the editor of the official journal of the Iowa Association for Physical Education, Recreation and Dance. Ken is the founding editor of a great web site for sport scientists (http://sportsci.org/). See Ken's links about his research and physical activity interests. Professor Daley has also led the way in developing seiza benches for the school environment. Take a look.
