When reading your science in popular magazines, tread carefully! Just saw 'A does not influence B' get twisted to 'A does influence B' on one of our papers. Always go back to the original source for clarity!

Comparing against inactive: - 6-minute walk test: +29.6 % - Chair stands: +55.1 % - Timed up-and-go: +28.6 % in favor of the exercise group. Having trained properly with that population, the gratitude you receive is immeasurable, because you improved their lives remarkably.

The Journal of Physiology acknowledges effect sizes and the pitfalls of null hypothesis significance testing. What a beautiful and concise summary. 🙏 physoc.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

If you ever wonder, what statistical test to use and discover some test selection flow chart, be reminded that every difference can be expressed as a relationship and your answer is always (some kind of) regression.

Slight Adjustments:

A comprehensive review on training intensity distribution across various endurance activities and seasonal phases has been released. For runners: >80% is done slow and steady all year long. As race day approaches, specificity likely increases in the remaining part.

New systematic review by Warneke et al. in Journal of Sport and Health Science (JSHS) challenges the traditional emphasis on stretching and foam rolling in warm-ups. Comprehensive analysis reveals no superior benefits for flexibility and stiffness over other warm-up activities! doi.org/10.1016/j.jshs…

I realized I teach students about the importance of the peer-review process and how it works while simultaneously being aware that this is a label anybody can buy these days for any publication they desire and it is no longer a mark of quality. Any good substitutes?

1/🚨 Intensity of physical activity is more closely linked with reduced mortality risk than volume, particularly for cardiovascular disease mortality. This underscores the relevance of integrating higher-intensity physical activity into daily routines for health optimisation.

"How do I find my maximal heart rate?" That is a question I get asked a lot. Here is a teaching video where I dive into some really good data addressing this question. youtu.be/lmB5cTOWCbs?si…
