Liikuntaharjoittelun yksilöllisyys kansainvälisen konferenssin pääteemana Jyväskylässä 19.–21.11.2025
Miksi toiset kehittyvät liikuntaharjoittelussa nopeammin kuin toiset? Miten perimä vaikuttaa harjoittelun tuloksiin? Muun muassa näihin kysymyksiin kuulet vastauksia Jyväskylässä järjestettävässä kansainvälisessä valmennustieteen konferenssissa.
