“Towards the 1st device-based guidelines of physical activity, sedentary behavior and sleep.” Scientific events lead wanted to join PROPASS’ working group: Speakers: Karen Milton and Jasper Schipperijn and Emmanuel Stamatakis and Jakob Tarp and Annemarie and Peter T Katzmarzyk and Jo Blodgett and Jasper Schipperijn and Karen Milton  Audio podcast of satellite event of the ProPASS consortium-ISPAH partnership: “Towards the 1st device-based guidelines of physical activity, sedentary behavior and sleep ISPAH Congress 2022 on the 23rd - 26th of October 2022. Over 90% of the evidence used for guidelines development is based on questionnaires. In the last decade there has been a large increase in device-based cohorts that will likely inform the next generation of guidelines.

This is the second part of our conversation with Dr Yunus Tuncel on philosophical approaches to emotions in sport. We explore how Kierkegaard's and Heidegger's account of anxiety can be applied to think of risk sports, discuss violence and aggression, and finish up on how to care for emotions in sport from a more practical perspective. Our conversation draws heavily on Yunus's book Emotion in Sports: Philosophical Perspectives. Dr Yunus Tuncel teaches Philosophy at The New School, New York, and in New York University’s Liberal Studies Programme. He is a co-founder of the Nietzsche Circle and a member of the Editorial Board of its journal The Agonist. Yunus is also the founder of Philomobile, which is a travel organisation offering trips to those interested in studying philosophy on the road (http://www.philomobile.com/). --- Found the episode interesting? Our previous conversation with Yunus can be found here: Part 1, Part 2. Related conversation on risk sports and authentic existence with Prof. Gunnar Breivik is here.

In this episode, we explore emotions in sport from a philosophical perspective. How are philosophical perspectives different from the more established psychological perspectives? How can ideas found in Aristotle, Nietzsche, Hume and Spinoza help us establish a framework to explore emotions in sport? Why are certain emotions and their balance essential for sustaining our sporting culture as we know it today, or could we find a better emotional balance in our individual and collective sporting lives? Our conversation draws heavily on Yunus's book Emotion in Sports: Philosophical Perspectives. Dr Yunus Tuncel teaches Philosophy at The New School, New York, and in New York University’s Liberal Studies Programme. He is a co-founder of the Nietzsche Circle and a member of the Editorial Board of its journal The Agonist. Yunus is also the founder of Philomobile, which is a travel organisation offering trips to those interested in studying philosophy on the road (http://www.philomobile.com/). The conversation continues in Part 2 with a focus on more specific emotions such as anxiety, fear, anger and joy in sport. --- Found the episode interesting?
