The post-workout fatigue that is generated after aerobic exercise involves calcium ion-related fatigue mechanisms that are completely unrelated to metabolite accumulation. Excitation-contraction coupling failure is the most likely candidate.

Yes, 9Now, we are still watching. AUS Olympic Team.

So does this mean double threshold isn't the magical training formula?

My mistake, double threshold back in vogue.

I’ve dived into the existing literature and used my own data and experiences to answer a longstanding question: 🧐“Watts” the difference between CP and MLSS? The result has just been published with Springer Nature in Sports Medicine. 📖 Read it here: rdcu.be/dSiS9

The higer %ofVO2max during intervals, the greater performance gains Notably, %ofVO2max during intervals appears to be sex-independent and not influenced by skeletal muscle characteristics🚴🏽‍♀️🚴🏽‍♂️ Tomas Urianstad Håvard Hamarsland Knut Sindre Mølmen #LabRønnestad #Trainome onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ej…

VERY excited to share this paper!🩸🚴🏼‍♀️ We used a remote protocol with athletes competing in e-cycling races across their MC. There was no relationship between oestrogen/progesterone and race time, BUT negative symptoms linked with poorer performance. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39501484/

Cool study & thread. Next steps would be understanding the impact of athlete profile, sport & event. Important to remember though, a training intensity distribution is an outcome of the training philosophy, prescription & execution, not the purpose of the training process.

🚨PhD opportunity🚨 If you are interested in this topic, or know someone who is, then get in touch by 17th March. Email me if you have any questions about the PhD. Matt Driller.

🚨Heat Training Survey🚨 Massive thanks to CASES for putting the word out regarding my PhD survey! If you’re a practitioner prescribing heat training for national to elite level athletes, we’d love to hear from you! 🔥🏃‍♂️🏆 Please share to get the word out 🙏👇

An often underappreciated element of precooling before competition in hot environments is the potential impact on pacing. A nicely designed study highlighting the importance of having a plan to maximise the benefits of precooling to enhance performance. jsams.org/article/S1440-….

More great work from this group, identifying manipulations in interval training to maximise adaptive potential and performance gains. journals.humankinetics.com/view/journals/…

Nice investigation into a topic that has received a lot of interest recently. Relatively wide limits of agreement (−39 to 29 W) between MLSS derived from lactate step testing vs. mathematical modelling based on VLamax, VO2max and body mass. link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Our new durability paper is out in SJMSS! We tested how endurance performance determinants change after heavy-intensity running (90 and 120 min) in well-trained marathoners. 📌Below details of what we’ve found. 🆓 Open-Access 📄 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/sm… Rich Blagrove 🧵1/14

🚴‍♂️ 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…

Great study from Peter McDonald, Julien Périard and team investigating how heat acclimation protocols influence adaptation kinetics. researchgate.net/publication/39…

Whilst far more important applications in fetal monitoring, this technology indicates that continuous lactate monitoring in athletes may not be that far away... abc.net.au/news/2025-07-2…

Fantastic work from Phil Bellinger & co, further advancing our understanding of the physiological responses to training. And a great 🧵 from Jem Arnold unpacking it all 👇
