1/13 How much energy (Kcal) do trail runners expend in reality? A thread after testing pro athletes with DLW. 6 months ago, I changed my job to take a new opportunity. I changed sport discipline as well. Left cycling behind, and opened a new chapter in trail running and running.


Acaba de ver la luz nuestro nuevo trabajo en EJSS: Validity and Practical Application of Muscle Oxygenation Monitoring for Identifying Maximal Fat Oxidation in Cyclists 🤝 con @MVAitor @APinedo_Jauregi @JordanSudafrica onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ej…
Congratulations and thanks for the collaboration to @andereibar and the team @APinedo_Jauregi @JordanSudafrica, #Andri. Happy to see this one published in EJSS! You can check our latest paper here: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ej…
Cáncer y lactato, ¿qué papel tiene el ejercicio físico? El lactato es el producto metabólico final de la glucólisis, la vía metabólica que obtiene energía de la glucosa fuera de la mitocondria. En situaciones de salud, es una pieza fundamental del engranaje de nuestro organismo.…
🆕PODCAST Territorio Trail en @aragonradio 🎙️ Con @AlfonsoGarciaTT y @Rauleorza 1⃣ La Hardrock 100 de Uxue Fraile: el beso a la roca, un sueño cumplido y un viaje en el tiempo. 2⃣ @MVAitor y cómo la ciencia puede evolucionar nuestro deporte y mejorar y optimizar el rendimiento…
New calorie data (from double labeled water) on 100-mile mountain ultras: ~15,800 kcal to cover the distance (while consuming roughly half that) ... followed by burning 4,200-4,900 in the 24hrs *after* the race, presumably for repair and replenishment. outsideonline.com/health/nutriti…
A very interesting look into the energy expenditure vs energy intake vs economical resources in this study lead by @HermanPontzer pnas.org/doi/epub/10.10… It´s worth reading! As with almost everything in metabolism, context drives the direction to some of the real answers.

Back on this, @jens_voet et. al published a paper looking into metabolic outcomes under fatigue in cyclists. Together with power data published by others, understanding the underlying mechanisms is necessary to inform effective training interventions. journals.humankinetics.com/view/journals/…
1/3 We have a fairly good understanding of exercising metabolism when fresh. However, how it works under fatigue is still a pending subject! How can we plan interventions for a fatigued body based on the knowledge we’ve got about fresh state? IMHO, it doesn’t make any sense!
Hace 1 año cumplimos un sueño Adri y yo. Sastre nos ofreció la sección Los Metabolistas (2 tíos que no saben pronunciar hablando en la radio 🤣). Nostalgia de aquello y mucha “Sastritis aguditis” estos días eh? Nunca estaremos suficientemente agradecidos! Suerte esta temporada!
