Journal Article
CORSIE, M., MALONE, M. and SWINTON, P.A. 2024. Translating novel collective behaviour measures to concepts and principles of play as understood by football coaches. International journal of sports science and coaching [online], Online First. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1177/17479541241238991

A range of innovative performance analysis metrics have been applied in recent years to investigate aspects of football using tempo-spatial and network analyses. These approaches have gained traction within some professional teams to quantify and ass...

Available from: https://doi.org/10.7717/peerj.16777

Based on emerging evidence that brief periods of cessation from resistance training (RT) may re-sensitize muscle to anabolic stimuli, we aimed to investigate how a 1-week deload interval at the midpoint of a 9-week RT program affected muscular adapta...

International journal of strength and conditioning [online], (accepted). To be made available from: https://journal.iusca.org/index.php/Journal/issue/view/9

Controlled experimental designs are frequently used in strength and conditioning (S&C) to determine which interventions are most effective. The purpose of this large meta-analysis was to quantify the distribution of comparative effect sizes in S&C to...

Physiological and psychological outcomes of high intensity interval training in patients with heart failure compared to moderate continuous training and usual care: a systematic review with meta analysis. (2023)
Journal Article
CALLUM, K., SWINTON, P., GORELY, T., CRABTREE, D. and LESLIE, S. 2024. Physiological and psychological outcomes of high intensity interval training in patients with heart failure compared to moderate continuous training and usual care: a systematic review with meta analysis. Heart and lung [online], 64, pages 117-127. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.hrtlng.2023.12.002

An important component of secondary prevention of CVD (including HF) is comprehensive cardiac rehab, including exercise. Novel, individualised approaches are needed to increase uptake and adherence to exercise programmes. One area offering potential...

Available from: https://doi.org/10.3310/TFWS2748

Tendons are cords of strong, flexible tissue that attach muscles to bones, allowing joints to move. Tendinopathy is a common condition that can affect any tendon in the body, causing pain and limiting function. Exercise is often used to treat tendino...
