Our new preprint proposes a new way to quantify training loads based on power output. We describe how a 3-parameter CP model may be used to estimate contributions of each energy system, resulting in a "strain score" which overcomes some limitations of other TL metrics.

New important review in Journal of Physiology by Thomas R. Tripp Martin MacInnis and colleagues Fit for comparison: controlling for cardiorespiratory fitness in exercise physiology studies of sex as a biological variable physoc.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

Can’t wait! Hoping my pre-ordered copy arrives soon!

Thomas R. Tripp (UCalgary Kinesiology) et al. discuss controlling for cardiorespiratory fitness in exercise physiology studies of sex as a biological variable ✍️ 🏃 🔗 Read the #TopicalReview here: buff.ly/l3bWKs3

Our review argues that cardiorespiratory fitness needs to be matched between males and females when investigating sex differences

New! We measured rates of hemoglobin synthesis in trained and untrained individuals and found them to be similar despite some earlier work showing shorter RBC lifespan in athletes. Martin MacInnis physoc.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.14814/p…

New paper on using D2O to measure hemoglobin synthesis rates in humans! We explained this application of D2O in @ActaPhysiologica onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ap… and use it here to show no influence of training status. Reach out if you're interested in this method.

WORLD CHAMP 🇨🇦🥇 With grit and determination, Evan Dunfee wins Canada's first medal of #WCHTokyo25 and it's a GOLD 🙌

Evan Dunfee just grabbed a Canadian flag from fans lining the track. He’s now charging into the stadium. It’s going to be go gold. Incredible.

Dunfee has done it! 🥇 After narrowly missing gold in multiple global championships, 34-year old Evan Dunfee is the 2025 35km race walk World Champion. He finished in 2:28:22, ahead of Brazil’s Caio Bonfim in 2:28:55, and Japan’s Hayato Katsuki in 2:29:16. #WCHTokyo25 coverage
