A few (very biased) suggestions for useful books! 😉 Sport Nutrition 4e out June 2024 and available to pre-order now from Amazon. No.1 resource for many college/university sport nutrition courses and popular with nutrition practitioners as their one-stop reference source.

Absolutely! The psychological stressors inside and outside of the sporting environment must be considered when dealing with an "overtrained" athlete

After your feedback here is the confirmed book cover for our 4th edition Sport Nutrition textbook (Jeukendrup & Gleeson) to be published by Human Kinetics in June 2024. No vote this time as we now move to production & marketing. Please tell us you like it 😍by liking this post!

Here is a blog in memory of Kevin Tipton. This blog describes work Kevin and I conducted with @LeighBreen on the effects of protein during exercise. Does it work? Does it help performance? Or maybe recovery after exercise? bit.ly/33BRzWH

Training Zones Explained. This took me a while but I wanted to explain how I see training zones according to the different bioenergetics characteristics of each zone and how I use them with athletes, patients, fitness and longevity purposes. Hope the video can be useful!. youtube.com/watch?v=VcYyHX…

By the end of the year it's very common among athletes to share some kind of summary of the training. Besides the anecdotal facts, I believe it's interesting to go thought this process to analyze what's working and what's not. For that you need to keep a Training Diary (1/8)

The first edition of this book was a piece I went often to understand better the science related to endurance training. This second one adds great value with many new subjects and revisions. A must for endurance coaches and curious athletes!

There's a lot of talk about enhancing longevity and health. Most of it is pseudoscience BS that doesn't work. I put together a guide that outlines what actually does. Research backed, no bro science, just what moves the needle. Get it here: thegrowtheq.ck.page/389f11ef74

New paper on the limits of ultra-endurance performance with a stellar group of authors. Lots of information for researchers and practitioners in this dense review link.springer.com/article/10.100…

@pkedrosky Agree. We have monotony, strain and session RPE in @SelfLoops

@jasonkoop @strava is not really for coaches. Coaches should use one of the many services available for example @selfloops 😀

What are the coaches who use Strava to ‘coach’ going to do after the free service goes away?

HRV-based recovery scores can be misleading. HR is constantly being modulated to meet current demands, recover from recent demands, or prepare for anticipated demands. Apps don’t know which is the case, & implications differ when it’s a recovery issue vs stress/lifestyle issue.
