William Brewer serves as a Senior Lecturer and Director of the Exercise Science Program within the College of Health Sciences and Technology at Rochester Institute of Technology, where he develops curricula to advance exercise as a therapeutic modality in healthcare and athletic conditioning.
His educational background:
- BS in Health Education from State University of New York at Cortland
- MS in Exercise Science & Health Promotion from Empire State College
Brewer's research focuses on exercise physiology, emphasizing exercise adherence (which he identifies as the most compelling area), cardiorespiratory adaptations, and thermoregulation during physical activity. As a certified Clinical Exercise Specialist by the American College of Sports Medicine, his expertise spans fitness assessment, exercise prescription, cardiac rehabilitation, and therapeutic exercise. He champions a holistic wellness lifestyle integrating physical activity, nutrition, stress management, and values clarification to optimize life experiences.
