The Cross-Education Effect;
What It Is & How To Use It
£49
Tutor:
Dr Claire Minshull PhD, BSc, PGCHE
The cross-education (CE) phenomenon describes the strength gain in the opposite untrained limb following unilateral contralateral resistance training. In healthy populations the CE effect can induce strength gains of up to 50% (in the untrained limb) relative to the improvements in the trained limb. In clinical populations CE can attenuate declines in strength caused by surgery, and, or, immobilisation compared to standard care. Learn all about CE, the evidence base and importantly how to deploy to maximal effect in clinical populations.
Topic: Mastering Scientific Principles
What's included in this Masterclass:
- A 1h 50m evidenced-based Masterclass on cross-education for training & rehabilitation
- A clear run down of what cross-education (CE) actually IS & how to use it
- A detailed & critical review of the evidence-base. When it works, and when it doesn’t!
- Understand the critical factors determining CE & the extent of effect
- Exploration of CE by muscle group, limb, dominance & contraction type
- Strength gain & strength-sparing: applying CE to clinical practice
- The critical dose-response: how much, of what type of exercise, over how long?

About Dr Claire Minshull
PhD, BSc, PGCHE
The founder of Get Back To Sport, Claire is one of the most highly respected and research active rehabilitation and conditioning specialists in the UK. She has worked in the field of sports medicine and health for over 20 years as a Senior Lecturer, Researcher, Consultant and as a Practitioner. She has designed, led and managed major clinical and nonclinical research trials, supervised several PhD students, and has published over 30 research papers in leading peer-reviewed sports medicine journals. She is regularly invited to speak at national and international academic and professional symposia and, serves as expert reviewer for >10 scientific peer-reviewed journals.
Claire’s research and teaching interests include the influences of exercise, training and rehabilitation on dynamic joint stability, neuromuscular and musculoskeletal performance. Her work also focusses on the optimisation of the management of osteoarthritis and developing specialised rehabilitation protocols for enhancing function and performance. Claire’s area of expertise means that she uniquely spans the gap between the physiology of conditioning and physiotherapeutic rehabilitation. She founded her company Get Back To Sport to enable the transference of research findings into enhancing clinical practice, and has developed the teaching portfolio that has an international reach.
