We made it to the rest day in our UTMB Salomon Team Camp!! Specific work based on our “demands of the event model” in preparation for the most exciting week of the year in Trail Running world. Thanks and great job to our athletes and staff. Ready for block 2 of training!

I re-listen to almost every single episode of the Real Coaching Podcast every couple of years. More are coming out (finally!), if you are a coach or sport scientist in the endurance space, I think this is worth your time and attention!

@jem_arnold That's interesting. Have you looked at was the overlap between the 60% that improved VO2max and the 80% that improved TT? How many didn't improve any of them, how many improved both?

Interesting. In our meta-dataset n=350 trained athletes performing 3-18 wks training interventions, 80% individuals improved TT performance, but only 60% improved VO2max by any amount over the same period 🤔

Polarised🆚Pyramidal🆚Threshold Which training model is best?🏆 It might matter how trained you are🤔 Our new meta-analysis tries to answer which training intervention produces the greatest improvements in endurance performance in trained athletes Thread🧵 & 🔗links below👇

Running vs cycling fatigue: "Running-based endurance exercise is associated with greater impairments in nervous system function, particularly at the spinal level, whereas cycling-based exercise elicits greater impairments in contractile function" journals.lww.com/acsm-msse/Full…

Heart rate as a proxy for internal stress, not work or O2 consumption The first person who introduced this concept to me was Mark Allen Sally's thread explains more in the context of strength training, plyos and "work capacity" gym training

"Sally, can we use higher tempo strength workouts to improve our aerobic fitness? E.g. Using kettlebell swings or loaded carries with higher heart rates to get our aerobic time for the week?" 👇

Something that’s been bugging me for a while. My view of the NP model and its fundamental flaw. @johnpeters_19650/flaw-in-the-np-model-3ee849080151" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@johnpeters_19

Another great paper by Calaine Inglis: "Exercise training-induced speeding of VO2 kinetics is not intensity domain-specific or correlated with indices of exercise performance". Full text available here: rdcu.be/d2AZL Thanks to the Qatar National Library for OA support!

What's (Not) in Your Supplement? The formal lab analysis is here. Eight brands, detailed statistics, and one extreme outlier. We found a systematic bias toward less energy and carbohydrates in the gels compared to their labels. Journal link: shorturl.at/IrtBQ ➡️Message/email me for the PDF.

You often hear that communication is key in building good quality relationships but what about the barriers of communication? Here is a new research paper with my international colleagues - open access @ISCJHK

@arjona_manu In ultra, we sometimes use "all day pace". And trial and error, if after 4h ADP you are very tired, ADP should be slower. An experienced athlete can also tell the difference between 50k/50mi-100k/100 mi effort when doing long runs, maybe not exactly right, but in the ballpark.

@arjona_manu Well you could try to model it with a power law 😉 But, really, you play with perception. Combining RPE, breathing/talk test as you suggest. So using TTE is not a perfect solution, for sure. 1/2

Training zone models are a mess and can cause more confusion than benefit. There are too many. We often use the same name or number for different zones depending on the model being applied. (1/3)

@arjona_manu Makes me think that perhaps time to exhaustion would be the most universal zone system. Do 4x10 min at 60 min power/pace/effort, would be the same for everyone. The problem would still be agreeing on the time boundaries for each zone, though.

@arjona_manu One option that has been used in distance running is referring to "zones" as race paces, at least for the higher intensities. So you do intervals at 10k race pace, or a tempo run progressing from marathon to half M pace. An advantage of that system is that it is pretty clear.
