 The translational health in nutrition and kinesiology (THINK) program is a 
 multidimensional curriculum designed to enhance health-related physical fit
 ness and physical literacy against a backdrop of STEM education. Health-rel
 ated physical fitness encompasses body composition and fat distribution alo
 ng with physical fitness variables including aerobic fitness\, muscular str
 ength/power\, muscular endurance\, and flexibility all of which reduce the 
 risk of chronic disease. Physical literacy encompasses the confidence\, com
 petence\, motivation\, and knowledge/understanding of exercise science and 
 its benefits in promoting an active\, healthy lifestyle.\n\nThe THINK progr
 am always begins with the introduction of a health-related theme relevant t
 o nutrition or exercise science education. This is followed by hands-on cli
 nical experiences using different pieces of equipment such as goniometers t
 o measure range of motion\, ECG’s to measure heart rate and rhythms during 
 exercise\, or bio-impedance and skin calipers to measure body composition. 
 This allows participants to be proactive in learning more about their own b
 odies and how it functions in response to exercise. Structured physical act
 ivities that reinforce educational and clinical experiences round out the p
 rogram. These activities are designed to promote creative thinking (brain g
 ames)\, team play\, self-expression\, and fun.\n\nAt the elementary and mid
 dle school level\, the THINK program focuses on the translation of nutritio
 n and exercise physiology concepts into positive lifestyle behaviors agains
 t a backdrop of STEM learning. At the high school and college level\, the p
 rogram focuses on STEM education and the professional preparation of studen
 ts for college life and careers in the applied sciences. At all levels\, we
  hope to extend student knowledge in nutrition and the exercise sciences by
  laying the foundation of a good STEM education\, empowering our youth to l
 ead active healthy lifestyles\, and motivating students to consider pursuin
 g STEM-related careers.
