Research Review Service – For Fitness Pros
Three years ago, Dr. Shawn Thistle launched the original Research Review service, an online subscription-based service for physiotherapists, chiropractors, and other manual medicine therapists.
This service was designed to keep manual therapists and chiropractors abreast of the latest research relevant to the therapy field. And, so far, users have been very pleased with the wealth of research-based information at their fingertips.
On the success of the original Research Review service, Dr. Thistle is at it again. And he’s recently released a new service for fitness professionals.
Now, personal trainers, conditioning specialists, nutritionists, and coaches can have access to professional reviews of the latest scientific literature with the new Research Review service – called RSS-fitness.
So, how does RRS-fitness work?
Every week, RRS-Fitness posts 1-2 new reviews which analyze, contextualize, and put into practice the findings of a recently published scientific article from industry-leading peer-reviewed journals. Here’s how it works.
- Each review takes 5-10 minutes to read
- Reviews focus on the practical application of results and functional knowledge of research methodology
- Reviews are all contained in a database that subscribers have full access to
- Topical content is varied and comprehensive
- Topics include everything from from exercise sciences to sports injuries and rehabilitation
The overall goal of RRS-Fitness is to increase knowledge translation from the scientific literature to those in contact with clients in all types of exercise and training environments. Further, RRS-Fitness will help subscribers collaborate more effectively with Chiropractors, Physiotherapists, and others who deal with common sports injuries. This can help grow your client base and increase your revenue.
