@AliBrownleetri Great article and very nice summary of the current evidence base. Always enjoy hearing athletes personal reflections on heat training. How did you find adjusting training volume/intensity during heat acclimation periods?

Check out my latest article about preparing for hot conditions. Link below

There is no greater illusion than thinking the accomplishment of some goal will change your life. What will change your life is who you become in the process of going for it.

Fuelling UTMB: How We Designed Tom Evans Winning Race Plan. @MaurtenOfficial asked me to write an article on how I developed Tom's race plan - from preparation to race day. It is published at the link below. Hope it opens up some interest and debate 😀 strava.com/clubs/675301/p…

120 g/h Carbs in Trail Running is Dead (maybe?). Lessons from winning UTMB. This weekend 2 of my nutrition clients, @TomEvansUltra and @ruthcrofty, won UTMB. We developeda different strategy, and it worked. Often high carb, but never 120 g/h, even going down to 80 g/h at times.

Every fitness person online is screaming... One camp shouts: Zone 2. The other: Go hard or go home. HIIT! But if you look at what the best in the world actually do? It’s simpler. More thoughtful. Less dogmatic. More varied A new study surveyed elite endurance coaches and the patterns were striking. Let’s break it down.

Best of luck to Jack Scott taking on Cocodona250. Read his Q&A on how we @Carnegie_Sport provided sport science support to Jack. ✅

Pump to have this huge field-based athlete methods and logistics review published with amazing co-authors. Includes elements of ethics, planning, checklists and protocols. OPEN ACCESS: rdcu.be/eiECo

Just when you thought the supershoe wars were over... Puma claims its new Fast-R 3 is ~3.5% better than the WR-setting Alphafly 3 and Adios Pro Evo 1. And they've got data from Wouter Hoogkamer, who did the original Vaporfly 4% study, to back it up. outsideonline.com/health/trainin…

Fitness tests aren't meant to mimic or simulate the game. We have the game for that. Fitness tests are used to assess a quality. Some qualities are highly meaningful for an athlete, others not so much. That's why fitness tests differ. Far too many crazy tests designed to mimic

A very nice article demonstrating how we @Carnegie_Sport @leedsbeckett are supporting Jack Scott for @Cocodona250 using our state-of-the-art environmental chambers. #heat #altitude #training

🏜️ A VERY different test coming up for record-breaking Jack Scott. run247.com/running-news/u…
