I have to admit I have no guidance to offer here, but rather a question. I assume many of our fine athletes are kinesthic learners. How then would a "traditional" study table environment work for them? I work with students in our fraternity and sorority systems who require study tables. Most of them find it difficult to study for hours on end sitting in one place. Many of these organizations have alternative study programs that include a variety of locations and methods more suited to the individual's learning style. Just some thoughts.
