Happy Mother’s Day to the best mum in the universe

Presenting some GPS and heart rate data at the QLD Touch Football State Cup streamed live on Kayo. Utilised the Polar Team Pro player tracking system

Adaptations to moderate intensity continuous training (MICT) and high intensity interval training (HIIT). Combination of both should optimise both peripheral adaptations eg mitochondrial adaptations, capillary density etc, and central adaptations eg stroke volume

Another epic graphic showing intensity domains anchored to heart rate, maximal aerobic speed, and critical speed/power. Also shown are training methodologies and examples within these intensity domains and subsequent physiological adaptations. This is your framework for conditioning prescription

Epic graphic of an endurance athlete physiological profile, with lactate threshold and corporal speed shown. Critical speed demarcates steady state from non steady state. In other words, I’d you’re running at a speed above critical speed (just under 21km/h in this case) you’re on borrowed time before you must lower the intensity. Also shows corresponding heart rate zones for further training intensity zone identification

Whey protein still the most effective source for stimulating muscle protein synthesis due to the amino acid profile and absorption kinetics. Fancy way of saying it’s the most effective for muscle gainzzzzzz. Total daily protein is more important than source but as an efficient and low cal way of getting pro gainz in…

Showing off the new Polar Pacer Pro sports watch Sandgate. Best optical wrist-based heart rate accuracy to date
