DR LEN KRAVITZ IS COMING BACK TO SYDNEY (YIPPEE!)

Once you meet him, world-renown exercise physiologist, Dr Len Kravitz is someone you will never forget! His passion, his unique presentation style, his humour and his extensive knowledge leaves you hanging on every word and yearning to learn more. In the lead up to FILEX, which is a regular in Len's presentation diary, Network caught up with this guru of gurus, to find out a little more about the man we know you will adore!

Network: What do you love most about being involved in the fitness industry?
LK: I like the fact that our industry is in a constant state of evolution. We truly are not complacent in any way, and as an industry we are constantly searching for new and better ways to achieve our goals, whether it be to improve health, sports performance or disease prevention. I enjoy so much that I can do research and writing on so many vast areas of our industry. We have very few boundaries, and limitless opportunities.

Network: What are the major ways in which the industry has changed since you've been involved?
LK: Our industry is so much more solidly based on research. Initially, we were driven by empirical ideas not based on theory or research. Now, each one of us creates training programs and classes where we allow our vastly improved knowledge on the anatomy, physiology and metabolic characteristics of the the human body help has advance our creativity.

Network: What do you think lies in the future of the fitness industry?
LK: I think our future will be very multi-directional.I see all of us growing in one or more directions such as childhood obesity, strength training, core training, wellness coaching, medical fitness, rehabilitation fitness, group personal training, mind-body training, sport-specific training, worker incentive fitness programs, Pilates, and many yet to be developed markets.

Network: What is it that keeps bringing you back to FILEX as a presenter?
LK: The FILEX delegates are INCREDIBLY wonderful colleagues. I so enjoy the networking and what I learn from each delegate. As well, I absolutely love Australia and Sydney is one of my most FAVORITE cities in the world.

Network: What are the key messages you hope to convey during your sessions at FILEX 2009?
LK: I think my underlying message is that "Knowledge is Power" and that each one of us can make a meaningful contribution to our industry and the populations we serve.

Network: Where can people find out more about you and/or what you do?
LK: Although I like separating my personal life from my professional life, I enjoying posting my writings on my WEB site for my friends and colleagues to read throughout the world. This really is the communication vehicle I have chosen. Find out more at www.drlenkravitz.com
