Big day! Got the early galleys for my new book, which comes out on March 25, 2025. It's called The Explorer's Gene: Why We Seek Big Challenges, New Flavors, and the Blank Spots on the Map. Find out more and (please!) pre-order here: alexhutchinson.net

Nice team-work! Our new article related to sleep and recovery in water polo has been just published in IJSPP. Midday naps predict likely less nocturnal sleep time. Next-day subjective recovery is predicted by the total sleep time. Women exhibit higher sleep quality than men.

Our new paper just published on line. Sports Health Journal!

Good news! My article received enough downloads to be a #topdownloadedarticle in its journal.

So glad to see our new paper published in IJSPP. The first study investigated the sleeping and hormonal responses of elite (silver medalists) players during preparation for Tοκyo Olympics.
