If you are "load monitoring" without collecting info on how your athletes respond to that load, you're either 1) just collecting numbers or 2) making decisions on future prescriptions without respecting physiology

When the fountains go off before the ball even lands 🔥 Patrick Bailey smashes a #walkoff HR for the SFGiants!

The Giants have now made a big comeback three days in a row! (via SFGiants)

HRV is still commonly mistaken for an indicator of what an athlete can do in terms of performance when it’s more an indicator of what they should or shouldn’t do in terms of load.

The Giants and Cardinals will be wearing Negro League throwback uniforms for the MLB at Rickwood Field game The threads will serve as a tribute to the San Francisco Sea Lions and St. Louis Stars Negro Leagues teams

New review where we discuss whether resistance training (RT) helps or hinders performance in speed and endurance sports? We discuss how certain RT adaptations might boost but also impair performance! Free full-text: link.springer.com/article/10.100… Short thread with figures below

Definitely, the most comprehensive review and metanalysis on this topic so far.. Can we determine first and second thresholds with HRV ? accuracy ? optimal methods ? bias ? sportsmedicine-open.springeropen.com/articles/10.11…

Happy to see that our comprehensive meta-regression, "Effects of Exercise Training on Mitochondrial and Capillary Growth in Human Skeletal Muscle," by Øyvind Skattebo, Nicki Win(gate)field Almquist, and myself, is now published in Sports Medicine! 🎉more details soon! link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Sports allows us to see people at their highest highs and lowest lows. Celebration, crying, failure, anxiety. It's real and raw. That's why bonds between teammates last. Athletics makes us vulnerable. In real life, we seldom are.

Reds Sports Science is hiring! We’ve added a new role, based at our Player Dev Complex in AZ, to help our department keep making meaningful impacts in Reds Health & Performance. Interested? Apply Here: teamworkonline.com/baseball-jobs/…

Physiological resilience is your ability to resist a decline in performance under prolonged stress. It’s being called the “fourth pillar of endurance performance.” Here’s what you need to know about durability and how you can improve it. 👇🏼

🙏Please share 🙏 It's out today! 🚴🏊‍♂️🏃‍♀️ So excited that Force 3 is published today. Grateful to be able to tell the other side of the force story - when and why power output matters. Another deep dive into the biomechanics of training 😊 Get it here: geni.us/endurancesport
