Shared a bit of my journey to find a sports watch...⌚️🤔

SSISA@Sportscience_sa

Tracking physical activity and exercise is becoming more and more popular. To do so, you’ve likely sought a device that can track your activity. But how do you know which device to get? Read more here: buff.ly/3Ls9FxN #wearabletechnology #wearables #health #fitness

@BenjiNaesen Possible middle ground: Monitor but don't give live feedback during the race to either the rider or team car. That way there is more emphasis on "instinct" while also being able to monitor loads to support rider well-being.

English

Benji Naesen@BenjiNaesen·14 Mar

Should monitoring devices (power, heart rate...) be banned from competition? I believe they're part of the sport now and should be allowed. What's your opinion? ⤵️

Benji Naesen@BenjiNaesen

@MatMitchell30 I don't understand why wearing this should be banned in the first place. Riders can use power meters to monitor their power, HR monitors to monitor their HR, all to balance their efforts. Glucose monitoring that supposedly helps you fuel optimally, is the same concept. 🤷‍♂️ 2/2

So-called fitness influencers and experts are posting videos of themselves jumping into freezing water as a sign of discipline or morality and bragging about how they cut out coffee. It's mainly there to make you feel like are not enough. Do what you can to laugh at it.

The best athletes on the planet, where HIIT is specific training (i.e. middle distance runners) seldom do more than 1 high-intensity interval workout per week during their most intense training phase So why does the average Joe think they need/can handle 1 or more HIIT per week?

Sportsmanship in 2023 is truly amazing, with Ilan van WIlder celebrating Magnus Cort's victory like it was his own. 🥹 Truly an amazingly kind individual, Van WIlder. 👏 #VAlgarve23

Another goodie from @stevemagness 👌

Steve Magness@stevemagness

When progress seems slow and tough, that's often a sing you are on the right track. Skills come from struggle. When something feels too easy, it's often a sign we aren't learning and growing.

It can be as simple as that.

Steve Magness@stevemagness

One of the best things you can do for you mental and physical health: Move. Don't over complicate it. Walk, jog, cycle, lift weights, whatever it is. Don't get caught up in the details until you are moving regularly.

Another interesting one from the GRIT Team! Bringing evidence-based info to the weight loss discussion (where it is really needed).

SSISA@Sportscience_sa

The topic of loosing weight may seem like a simple science of “calories in vs calories out”, but it is way more complex than you think. Despite the years of extensive research there are many questions that remain up for debate. Here we discuss them: buff.ly/3R2JZsk

Referencing one's argument tends to make it more believable but does it make it right? I got to have a look at one of probably many examples of where it doesn't.

In Tuesday’s blog article buff.ly/3goRxYq, we mentioned critical speed. Kipchoge’s high critical speed and his ability to increase his speed in the final phase of a marathon to just below that, seems to be a differentiating factor to his success. @AndrewBosch4 @HPALS__

There are three factors used independently and together to measure running performance but the best measure of performance is still a simple time trial or a race as this type of test simulates the real world application of all three factors. Explained: buff.ly/3VFb6ed
