Exercise Physiology (PhD). Interested in both theory and application of exphys, particularly in endurance sports.
Our new preprint proposes a new way to quantify training loads based on power output. We describe how a 3-parameter CP model may be used to estimate contributions of each energy system, resulting in a "strain score" which overcomes some limitations of other TL metrics. doi.org/10.48550/arX...

Tom's Weekend Warrior study is out! Training either 4x (short) or 2x (long) weekly resulted in the same adaptations, when overall volume and content of training was fixed.

Performance, thresholds, efficiency, Hbmass, and ox cap ↑ equally in both groups.
