Christopher Lundstrom, Ph.D., lecturer and M.Ed. director in the School of Kinesiology, is an expert panelist to determine Sports Illustrated world’s most fittest athletes. The article, “Sports Illustrated’s Fittest 50,” discusses the ranking process of the study by examining athlete performance, durability, as well as “other physical criteria including power, speed, strength, agility, endurance, flexibility and more.” The study spanned 12 months and was conducted with help from “trainers, exercise physiologists and performance experts.” Jessie Diggins, Minnesota’s cross-country ski olympic gold medalist, is included on the list. Among other “top fittest” was Simone Biles, gymnast, Patrick Mahomes, football player, and Lindsey Vonn, ski racer.
