Applied knowledge in performance physiology.
A reference space with articles, resources and training for coaches, performance staff and practitioners working in high-performance sport.
Articles to interpret better.
Heat acclimation: beyond heat exposure.
How to tell a real physiological adaptation apart from simple exposure to thermal stress.
What are physiological thresholds, really? Why they aren't a fixed boundary.
Why LT1 and LT2 are not exact boundaries and how to read training zones from a physiological perspective.
Internal load vs. external load: what actually reaches the body.
Why two athletes can complete the exact same session and end up with completely different adaptations.
Training with extra clothing is not training in the heat.
Why sweating more doesn't mean adapting better, and what the body actually needs to develop heat adaptations.
Free resources.
Technical guides and practical tools to apply performance physiology concepts in real-world contexts.
Practical guide to heat acclimation
An applied guide to understanding the physiological processes of heat adaptation, the key variables to control and how to structure acclimation protocols aimed at sport performance.
Guide to interpreting training load
A guide to understanding the relationship between external load, internal load and the athlete's individual response, and to interpreting load better in real training contexts.
Heat training: from the lab to competition.
In-depth training on acclimation, protocols, internal-load monitoring and real-world application in teams competing under heat stress.
