Data from 120,000 runners shows that slow and fast marathoners do essentially the same amount of medium and hard training, but vastly different amounts of easy training. But does that really mean that slow marathoners would get faster by training easier? outsideonline.com/health/trainin…

Recently there’s been plenty of good work in the (re?)emerging field of durability. Our review published in Experimental Physiology explores key methodological approaches and considerations to be made when profiling durability in research and applied settings.

A new review digs into the science of "lactic acidosis" and muscle fatigue. Key points: - we don't have "lactic acid" in the body, we have lactate and hydrogen ions, which have separate (and sometimes opposite) effects - lactate is a useful fuel and doesn't cause fatigue [...]

🚴‍♂️ New open-access paper from our group out in EJAP! We show durability of the moderate-to-heavy intensity transition (VT1) during prolonged cycling can be predicted using simple, readily available markers of physiological decoupling. (1/7) 📄 doi.org/10.1007/s00421…
