Expertise

His work has concentrated on targeting exercise to the diagnosed needs of the individual, with special emphasis on older persons. His research team was one of the first to recognize that the functional declines and histological changes that occur with age reflected loss of velocity rather than simple strength, thereby dictating power or high-speed training. As he has explored the impact of high-speed training on neuromuscular performance, he has evolved his research to include proper loading patterns, specific joint responses, most effective exercise modalities, and patterns of change across training cycles.
