This post delves into the benefits of incorporating heart rate technology and what this can look like in applied sports science.

This article delves into the science behind Myocene and its potential application in athlete monitoring programmes.

Here we discuss the Premier League Festive football calendar and consider the recovery and travel demands for each club.

The NBA have just approved a new Player Participation Policy that limits player rest due to load. What does this mean for sports scientists?

My comment on Zone7’s white paper: The Importance of Workload, Strength, Recovery and Environmental Context Data in Injury Risk Forecasting

This video discusses how invisible monitoring can be used in sports science. Invisible monitoring can negate the need for fitness testing.

With the 2022 FIFA Men's World Cup in Qatar over, we discuss how Premier League sports science staff can reintegrate their players.

Wellness questionnaires, also called Athlete Self Report Measures (ASRM), are an important part of a sports science load monitoring system.

I am pleased to share my new white paper: "Load Monitoring: Frequently Asked Questions". In it, I seek to answer 10 commonly asked questions

Measures of distance and "PlayerLoad" demonstrated good reliability on a group level across trials of standardised football training games

No matter the constraints (opponents, time, turnarounds, locations), there is always an opportunity to put the team in a position to perform

Explore the evolution of sports injury causation models! Discover how various risk factors interact beyond training load.

I am pleased to share this new publication in Frontiers led by Amber Rowell. Using the training environment as a testing setting is an...

Rest and recovery are pertinent areas in Sports Science. Is there increased understanding in the optimum balance of training and rest?

This post expands on the points made in what I believe is a must read review for all Sport Scientists and in fact any practitioner...

Dr Anthony Shield from the Queensland University of Technology and the QUT-ACU Hamstring Injury Group discusses hamstring strain injuries.

The final potential area to consider for the efficacy of compression garments is perceptual recovery. Here we also conclude the series.

Do potential reduction in muscle damage with compression garments translate into improved muscle function and physical performance?

Next we look at the evidence in relation to one of the main claims for using compression garments; reducing muscle damage and inflammation.

Let's us look into the case between the theories of cramping: electrolyte depletion and dehydration versus the neuromuscular control theory
