📢New: rdcu.be/ead4q - Scoping laboratory-based cycling race simulation protocols - w/ @timpodlogar. Durability=🔥 + influences performance. Fixed-intensity protocols are good for understanding phys mechs and useful for 🏃 perf but 🚴‍♂️races = variable intensity.

Take home: i) develop better protocols, ii) use exercise domains but iii) work or distance-matched vs. time-matched (racing = distance = ~work) iv) use real-world zone distribution v) test-retest vi) race virtually?

We evaluated people's self reported habits when using home-based indoor cycling, which has increased in popularity in cycling and triathlon communities over the last decade. Reasons why, equipment used, Training frequency/intensity and nutrition

If researchers are planning for a home-based cycling intervention study (large pool of potential participants and more rapid data collection vs lab-based) understanding habits can improve methods design to maximise adherence.

A little bit about me featuring in @HNERC_NclUni - think I need an updated profile picture on X
For this month's @HNERC_NclUni feature we'd like to introduce Dr. Wouter Peeters (who tweets under @peeters_wouter) - a researcher and Lecturer in Sport & Exercise Nutrition

Y'day @James_Morehen delivered a talk to our student on the Sport Nutrition module about his work @ Bristol Bears and career to provide insights into being a performance nutritionist. Formula for best practitioner = credibility x reliability x intimacy / ego. @NCLUni_SportSci

7/n Personally, this PhD project was quite the experience, covering the entire spectrum of emotions: from extreme excitement, happiness and privilege to live in and experience New Zealand for 3.5 years to extreme frustration and despair due to ongoing delays on public IP

8/8 it’s nearly 4 years since I passed my viva. Not sure if this is an exception to the rule or not butlet's call it valuable experience.
