Endurance exercise performance is known to be closely associated with the three
physiological pillars of maximal O2 uptake (V ̇ O 2 max ̇V_\rmO_2\rmmax), economy or …

In this review we integrate the scientific literature and results-proven practice and outline a
novel framework for understanding the training and development of elite long-distance …

Interval training is a simple concept that refers to repeated bouts of relatively hard work
interspersed with recovery periods of easier work or rest. The method has been used by …

Creatine supplementation is an effective ergogenic aid to augment resistance training and
improve intense, short duration, intermittent performance. The effects on endurance …

While established methods for determining physiologic exercise thresholds and intensity
distribution such as gas exchange or lactate testing are appropriate for the laboratory …

Purpose: The present study aimed to determine the influence of fatigue on the record power
profile of professional male cyclists. We also assessed whether fatigue could differently …

Background: Elite sport is continuously evolving. World records keep falling and athletes
from a longer list of countries are involved. Purpose: This commentary was designed to …

Purpose The short-term scaling exponent alpha1 of detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA-a1)
of heart rate variability (HRV) has shown potential to delineate the first ventilatory threshold …

Background The running performance of middle-distance and long-distance runners is
determined by factors such as maximal oxygen uptake (V O2max), velocity at V O2max (v V …

Purpose The aims of this study were to:(i) describe the time course of the decrease in power
output at the moderate-to-heavy intensity transition during prolonged exercise;(ii) investigate …
