Previously, the use of moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) has generally been considered the most beneficial exercise treatment modality for the prevention/management of metabolic type disease.

A device for characterising the mechanical properties of the plantar soft tissue of the foot (2015)
Journal Article
Parker, D., Cooper, G., Pearson, S., Crofts, G., Howard, D., Busby, P., & Nester, C. (2015). A device for characterising the mechanical properties of the plantar soft tissue of the foot. Medical Engineering and Physics, 37(11), 1098-1104. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.medengphy.2015.08.008

The plantar soft tissue is a highly functional viscoelastic structure involved in transferring load to the human body during walking. A Soft Tissue Response Imaging Device was developed to apply a vertical compression to the plantar soft tissue whils...

A review on the mechanisms of blood-flow restriction resistance training-induced muscle hypertrophy (2015)
Journal Article
Pearson, S., & Hussain, S. (2015). A review on the mechanisms of blood-flow restriction resistance training-induced muscle hypertrophy. Sports Medicine, 45(2), 187-200. https://doi.org/10.1007/s40279-014-0264-9

It has traditionally been believed that resistance training can only induce muscle growth when the exercise intensity is greater than 65% of the 1-repetition maximum (RM). However, more recently, the use of low-intensity resistance exercise with bloo... Read More about A review on the mechanisms of blood-flow restriction resistance training-induced muscle hypertrophy.
