Eric Harness, CSCS Director of Research, Training, and Development Eric graduated from San Diego State University in 1997 with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology with an emphasis in Athletic Training and a Minor in Psychology. He then received a post-graduate certification as a Strength and |
| Conditioning Specialist through the National Strength and Conditioning Association. In 1998, he met up with Ted and started training high school, college, and Olympic athletes in Ted's facility. 6 months later Ted began seeing Mike Thomas, his first SCI client. Eric watched as Mike began to progress and became intrigued; people with spinal cord injuries were not supposed to be able to gain function below the level of injury. He began assisting Ted and learning what he was doing with Mike. Project Walk had begun. | |
