"Ptolemy made a universe which lasted 1,400 years. Newton also made a universe, which has lasted 300 years. Einstein has made a universe and I can’t tell you how long that will last.”

1. How off are we from the "REAL NUMBER" in sports (TDF for example)?
Just imagine what we call 200w is not really the real number. Imagine it´s 250w. We're 50w off. Is it problematic? Well, if sensitivity of the measurement is good, probably it would not.

With my official graduation coming up in a month or so, I am super happy to have the 4th paper from my PhD accepted in EJSS
The intensity rather than the quantity of prior work determines the subsequent downward shift in the power duration relationship in professional cyclists

Pertinent to remember that the concept of what is nowadays often referred to as ‘zone 2’ training was probably MAF and already around in the late 60s early 70s

Valuable gains from small efforts🥇Brief periods of sprinting during low intensity rides may provide elite cyclists added performance📈 This is demonstrated in the publications and PhD thesis of @AlmquistNicki. A thread 🧵->

Great thread from Joe!
One of the highlights of this year's @ScienceCycling conference was @Spragg_Perform fatigue resistance research which can potentially revolutionise performance testing/prediction in athletes

Comparing fatigability in running and cycling:
"Running...is associated with greater impairments in nervous system function, particularly at the spinal level, whereas cycling...elicits greater impairments in contractile function"

Look forward to reading this - this is a really nice way to display TID which to my mind is much clearer than we see on commercially available platforms
📝ACCEPTED. How do world class top 5 Giro d’Italia finishers train? Cyclists adopted an overall pyramidal intensity distribution with a increase in high-intensity volume & polarization index in races weeks. Soon in SJMSS @GABRIEL49133933 @LucaFilipas
