Graduate Teaching Assistant
Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi
My name is James T. Morales, CSCS. I am a graduate teaching assistant in the Department of Kinesiology at Texas A&M University - Corpus Christi. Recently, I completed the 2023-2024 academic year as the strength and conditioning coach for the TAMUCC cheer and dance teams. In addition, I served as an instructor for exercise physiology labs and introductory weight training courses.
My research interests lie in exploring the cardio-metabolic differences between circuit training and treadmill-based interval running, as well as bioenergetics and high-intensity interval training (HIIT). I am set to graduate with my master’s degree in kinesiology on August 10th, 2024.
Outside of academia, I am an avid fan of professional wrestling and have experience working as an in-ring official on the independent pro wrestling circuit.
