Mehdi Kordi, PhD, is a track cycling coach (sprinting in particular) working with the Royal Dutch Cycling Federation. In Tokyo, the Dutch track sprinters brought home multiple golds and medals, and Mehdi joins us to discuss how these athletes train to be the fastest on the planet. Also we discuss the physiology of W' and how it relates to neuromuscular function, and other bits and pieces from Mehdi's research.     

IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN ABOUT:

-Mehdi's take on the Olympics in Tokyo and how his team performed

-How do track sprint cyclists train?

-The relationship between neuromuscular function and W' (anaerobic work capacity) 

-The importance of muscle size (rather than neural functions, fiber type etc.) and maximum force capacity on W'

-What sort of strength training might be used to improve W'?

-Reliability and sensitivity of the Notio Konect aero sensor

Professor Melitta Mcnarry of Swansea University has recently published a meta-analysis on the health and mortality (all-cause, cardiovascular disease, and cancer) consequences of an elite sporting career. Here, she discusses the findings and the potential implications.     

IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN ABOUT:

-Reasons for conducting the meta-analysis, including questions marks around whether a high amount of exercise might be detrimental rather than beneficial for health and longevity

-The significantly reduced mortality in elite athletes, in particular endurance athletes and team sport athletes

-Potential reasons for the reduced mortality

-The relationship between cardiorespiratory fitness and protection against cardiovascular disease

-Potential reasons for why elite endurance athletes had greatly reduced cardiovascular disease mortality, but no difference compared to the general population for cancer mortality

José Ramón Lillo, PhD is a researcher at the University of Alicante. In this interview, we discuss a study where Functional Threshold Power (FTP, as measured by 95% of the average power from a 20-minute all-out time trial) was compared to maximal lactate steady state (MLSS) and other physiological markers.     

IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN ABOUT:

Phil Bellinger, PhD, is a researcher and lecturer at Griffith University, Australia. His work includes training interventions, nutritional interventions, and more recently using magnetic resonance spectroscopy to non-invasively assess muscle fibre typology and investigate how it relates to performance and training adaptations. He has also recently published a literature review on functional overreaching in endurance sports.    

IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN ABOUT:

-Fundamentals of different muscle fibre types, and muscle fibre type distribution

-Is functional overreaching necessary to induce training adaptations?
