Exercise Research
Exercise is critical to staying healthy. Research in the fields of exercise science and sports medicine helps us understand injury prevention, human movement, physiology, athletic performance, and the effects of physical activity on fitness, health, mood, and wellbeing.

About This Grant
We invite practitioners, scientists, athletes, and exercise enthusiasts to submit their research projects and launch public Experiment fundraising campaigns. Featured challenge projects will launch together in late November for 30 days, for a chance at the extra grant awards.
You can begin a project page draft below and submit it for review by 11/4 to be included in the challenge. Our team will then work with you on preparing the project to launch on 11/17.
The submission form follows any live project page that you can currently view on Experiment. Some examples of project pages from funded exercise-related campaigns:
Can we predict whether an athlete will sustain an ACL tear?
How does Sprint Training Impact Blood Sugar and Inflammation?
A Prescription for Health and Fitness Based on Your Genes
Please watch our call for proposals before you start! This short 3-minute introduction video will explain the process of how crowdfunding on Experiment works:
How It Works
Challenge grants are prizes to supplement existing crowdfunding campaigns. We will accept proposals for campaigns related to exercise and sports research, and all the campaigns will launch together on November 17th, 2016. After the third week of the campaigns, the project with the highest number of backers will receive an additional $500. There are two runners-up prizes of $200 each.
