Profile:

Dave Verrill, MS, RCEP, CES is Lecturer and Laboratory Director in the Department of Kinesiology at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte in Charlotte, NC. He graduated from the University of Maine in 1979 with his B.S. in Physical Education and the University of South Carolina in 1982 with his M.S. in Exercise Science. He is a Fellow of the American Association of Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Rehabilitation (AACVPR) and is a certified ACSM Program Director (PD). Dave is also Past-President of both the Clinical Exercise Physiology Association (CEPA) and the North Carolina Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation Association (NCCRA). Dave has worked in the field of exercise science for over 30 years and has written or co-written chapters for many recent ACSM certification textbooks. He is also a member of the writing teams for two upcoming ACSM publications, including the 2018 “ACSM’s Guidelines for Exercise Testing and Prescription.” He has presented at many ACSM, AACVPR, and state cardiopulmonary rehabilitation association annual meetings with a focus on cardiopulmonary rehabilitation outcomes, body composition changes in cardiac patients, resistive exercise testing and training in cardiopulmonary populations, and licensure issues for clinical exercise physiologists. He has also published a number of research and review articles in journals such as CHEST, Journal of Clinical Exercise Physiology, Sports Medicine, and the Journal of Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation and Prevention. Dave has received three NCCRA Distinguished Service awards as well as the UNCC 2014 Award for Excellence in Undergraduate Teaching in the College of Health and Human Services. He currently lives in Stallings, NC, with his wife Susie and children Thomas (12), Katie (14), and Christopher (17).

Research Interests:
  • Long-term outcomes in cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation patient functional capacity, QOL and depression
