Delighted our review is now published in @IJSNEMJournal 🎉. If you're interested in the energy and fluid requirements of elite male and female athletes across sports then check it out 👇🏻.

Today was a reminder of how great the Sports Nutrition community is; empowering, supportive & striving for change together. Amazing work from @TesterEmma @PaoGiusti @NessanCostello 👏

Proud to have hosted such an insightful and collaborative conference with these two @TesterEmma @NessanCostello

Footballers are reduced to numbers and statistics in every way, including their body composition. But is body composition testing being done in the right way? Or is it being overused and over interpreted in a potentially damaging way? nytimes.com/athletic/62525…

Very pleased to have a second study from my PhD published in @EurJSportSci Hopefully an important step in the advancement of applied nutrition services available to international rugby union players. Thanks to all involved 📄 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ej…

Loved presenting my PhD study 2 poster at @sportexercise this week! Thanks to support from @Carnegie_Sport @susanbackhouse @NessanCostello @23Benjones #SportScience #PhDLife

Very pleased to see the first study from my PhD published! Energy expenditure of international female rugby players during a major international tournament: a doubly labelled water study. Thank you to everyone who supported this project. Read it here cdnsciencepub.com/doi/full/10.11…

We have 2 fully funded PhDs working with me and the team at @LJMUSportSci available at the moment. One is focussed on rugby with @EnglandRugby and the second football with @Nutrition_X and @StockportCounty . It's a great place to study. Any questions drop me a message.

Does the body composition, strength, aerobic capacity, energy requirements and blood work of international women’s rugby league players change over a 1 year period? Our recent manuscript published in @PLOS answers. Read in more detail here: doi.org/10.1371/journa… (open access)

Our latest FREE paper. Training with reduced carbohydrate availability affects markers of bone turnover in male academy football players. Congrats to @StablesReuben and collaborators on another paper from his PhD @LJMU @LJMUSportSci @premierleague @FA link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Fantastic work by @laraewilson22 👏🏽. This marks the first publication from her match-funded PhD in collaboration with @Scotlandteam & @Carnegie_Sport focusing on international women’s rugby 🏉. Thanks for sharing @tecoughlin 🙌🏽.
