When you're a hypoxia researcher prepping for a 150km trek in the Himalayas.... #altitrainer #preacclimation

Good study, but yet another that misses the key point... Tests of CP should be designed to estimate MMSS. If you don't measure max VO2 steady state it doesn't have construct validity, and if you use 20min TTs you increase risk of underestimating MMSS. journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.117…

As an exercise physiologist interested in EE & EIM I note there is huge disagreement about the role of diet in obesity & T2DM eg the plant vs meat debate is all the rage but... This simple model seems to bridge the divide between CIM & EBM... preprints.arphahub.com/article/108755/

"You can't outrun a bad diet" is the worst health cliché going around at present. But why would you want to outrun a bad diet anyway? Just adopt a healthy diet and COMBINE it with exercise.

"High-responders performed greater training loads" Therefore, this is not a true dose-response analysis. It offers insight into why some athletes may adhere better to "optimized" training, but not about between subjects variability in the actual dose-response relationship

The real tragedy of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict... it's an ancient family that has turned on itself and no longer recognises their common ancestry "Palestinian-Jewish rivalry is based in cultural and religious, but not in genetic, differences." pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11543891

*Postdoctoral Opportunity in Exercise Cardiovascular Research* 🔍 I am on the lookout for a dynamic Postdoctoral trainee to join my newly established lab in the College of Health and Life Sciences (CHLS) at Hamad Bin Khalifa University (HBKU) in the vibrant city of Doha!

We found similar results in our 2017 study. CP seems to decline slightly less than VO2max. Potentially this reflects a small increase in central O2 delivery "headroom" due to lower absolute intensity at altitude. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28386237/

2 athletes have the same 5MMP (a so called "measure" of MAP) + VO2max. Yet one achieves this with low CP / high W' and the other with high CP / low W'. Clearly one has superior MMSS but do they have the same MAP?

Great opportunity and great team at Latrobe!!

Gas exchange thresholds (GET/RCP) from mixing chamber versus BxB VO2? Anyone know a good study on this or have direct experience comparing the two? Many BxB systems suffer from systematic underestimation at high Bf but trade off is whether mixing chamber GETs are valid.

Excellent comprehensive training study and huge amount of work here by Calaine Inglis Juan Murias Daniel Keir

The summit of Mount Everest with a wonderful 4-minute drone ride.

Great work Spragg Performance and co! OK so next Q... what if total work >CP is accumulated differently? eg: W'bal > some threshold (~60-80%) vs W'bal is <30-40%. Same P>CP could be employed but different W:R profiles and hence W'bal kinetics

Landmark study first ever to examine leg vascular conductance using thermodilution in running... onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/sm…

There is so much info on health, wellness, performance, exercise, diet etc it can be overwhelming. So I started making up bad haikus to simplify the scientific literature on healthy living... Eat the food that grows Avoid food from factories Do some exercise

My view here was based on AFL where a technical standard was implemented for GPS monitoring. This is proof of concept that standardized PMs in pro cycling could work too which is perhaps the major logistical barrier to adding PO data as part of a broader antidoping strategy.
