Validation of field-based running tests to determine maximal aerobic speed in professional rugby league (2024)
Journal Article
Bennett, T., Marshall, P., Barrett, S., Malone, J., Simpson, A., Bray, J., Christopherson, C., Nickolay, T., Metcalfe, J., & Towlson, C. (2024). Validation of field-based running tests to determine maximal aerobic speed in professional rugby league. PLoS ONE, 19(7 July), Article e0306062. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0306062

Practitioners place importance on high-speed running (HSR) to monitor training practice and match-play demands, whilst attempting to maximise fitness and minimize the risk of injury occurrence. Practitioners apply various methods to quantify HSR, suc... Read More about Validation of field-based running tests to determine maximal aerobic speed in professional rugby league.

Effectiveness of short-term isothermic-heat acclimation (4 days) on physical performance in moderately trained males (2022)
Journal Article
Shaw, J., Walkington, C., Cole, E., Gleadall-Siddall, D. O., Burke, R., Bray, J., Simpson, A. J., Vince, R. V., & Garrett, A. T. (2022). Effectiveness of short-term isothermic-heat acclimation (4 days) on physical performance in moderately trained males. PLoS ONE, 17(11), Article e0270093. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0270093

Introduction A typical heat acclimation (HA) protocol takes 5–7 d of 60–90 minutes of heat exposure. Identifying the minimum dose of HA required to elicit a heat adapted phenotype could reduce financial constraints on participants and aid in the tape...
