Infographics

Infographics are a great way of making complex scientific research easier to understand and digest.

Tom creates infographics in his spare time to promote science-based education regarding the fields

of nutrition, training, performance and health, making research more accessible to the general public

with interests in those areas.

The infographics are also posted on the TEC Nutrition social media pages but on this dedicated page

BCAAs Improve Recovery Following Hypertrophy Exercise

BCAAs improve recovery following a single bout of hypertrophy exercise in resistance-trained athletes 💪 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Another interesting study coming out of St Mary's University by Waldron and colleagues (2017) looking at recovery following muscle damage-inducing exercise, this time on the benefits of BCAA supplementation 📈 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In addition to my own unpublished work on BCAAs, there seems to be more evidence suggesting that supplementing with BCAAs could have a benefit in

The Effect of Compression Clothing Pressure on Recovery from Strenuous Exercise

High pressure compression garments improve recovery of muscle function after exercise-induced muscle damage 📈 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Recent study by Hill and colleagues (2017) showing that high pressure compression garments can improve recovery of muscular function measured through countermovement jump tests 🤔 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It should be noted that the low pressure rights group wore commercially available compression garments, whereas the high pressure group wore medical grade compression cl
