Bob Mangine is an athletics trainer for the football team at the University of Cincinnati, supervising a program that addresses the health and well-being of the team on a year-round basis.

Bob has served as Director of Rehabilitative Services at the University of Cincinnati since 2002., and has worked with both amateur and professional athletes since 1976, when he first arrived at university. In 1982, he assisted in the development of the nationally-recognized Cincinnati Sports Medicine and Orthopaedic Center. After serving approximately 10 years with the organization, he started his own practice which merged with NovaCare Rehabilitation in 1998.

Bob has recently started incorporating regular floating into his athletic team’s training, and has been working with the Air Force’s STRONG program (which will be presented on by Lydia Caldwell) to conduct research on how his athletes are affected by floating.
