FIA launches research institute
The Fitness Industry Association (FIA) has launched its Research Institute at the University of Greenwich.
Lead by FIA's chief medical officer, Dr. John Searle, and the university's Prof. Alfonso Jimenez, the principle objective of the institute will be to re-balance the current focus of research more towards structured forms of exercise.
The first programme will be the FIASES (FIA Structured Exercise Research Study) an evidence-based dose-response 12 weeks intervention study.
Speaking at the launch of the institute, Searle said that the launch of the new body was a "significant development" for the fitness industry.
