Following yesterday's blog discussing the incorporation of occlusion training into rehabilitation & recovery programmes, Raph (Brandon), the EIS Head of Strength & Conditioning, answers questions on the theory, practice & need for further research of occlusion training.
Today, back in Lee Valley, I managed to catch up with Raph Brandon after a few weeks of me being away & Raph being busy at other sites. Raph is the Strength & Conditioning Lead for EIS & attends to UK Athletics’ needs twice a week.
Raph has been looking at occlusion training..
