Big congratulations to Mr. Ben McKellar on the successful defense of his MSc work today! Ben examined the effects of adding BFR to regular training on climbing performance and cardiovascular physiology

Abstracts are due tomorrow (May 24) for Ontario Exercise Physiology (OEP) 2024!

OEP 2024 will be hosted at McMaster University on June 24-26th and is co-organized by Brock University and McMaster University

Excited about our latest BFR study led by Chris Pignanelli. We explored how BFR during exercise affects recovery and PLFFD compared to regular exercise. Results show BFR does not hinder neuromuscular recovery within 24 hours or increase PLFFD.

Awesome time collaborating with Rowing Canada Aviron, and the gang over in Victoria, BC! The athletes were great to work with and some exciting findings that will hopefully convince other elite groups to begin documenting their training with blood flow restriction.

I have a new favorite figure for “Hemoglobin Mass”. Well done Jamie Burr Kyle Thompson

I'm a big fan of studies like this that challenge the perceived/imposed barriers to work with female athletes 👏

A huge congratulations to Dr. Kyle Thompson on the succesful defense of his PhD work.

A tweet can't adequately describe the journey, but I feel privileged to have simply been along for the ride.
Super proud of you and what you've accomplished!

If you're completely bored on Tuesday (1:30pm EST) or LOVE blood flow restriction research, come watch my defense RE how BFR training increases VO2max!

Watching PhD defenses should be mandatory for new graduate students. A great way to see how years of work strings together.

Our latest ice hockey work published in ⁦Int'l Journal of Sports Physiology and Performance⁩ ⁦Human Kinetics⁩. No argument that skating speed is important, but perhaps other determinants of on-ice performance should be a greater focus given how little players skate at high speeds journals.humankinetics.com/view/journals/…

A little overdue, but I am super excited to say that my undergraduate thesis project has officially been published in the European Journal of Applied Physiology! I couldn’t have done it without the continuous support from my lab mates and supervisor.
