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.

Individualisation of time-motion analysis : a method comparison and case report series (2014)
Journal Article
Hunter, F., Bray, J., Towlson, C., Smith, M., Barrett, S., Madden, J., Abt, G., & Lovell, R. (2015). Individualisation of time-motion analysis : a method comparison and case report series. International journal of sports medicine, 36(1), 41-48. https://doi.org/10.1055/s-0034-1384547

© Georg Thieme Verlag KG. This study compared the intensity distribution of time-motion analysis data, when speed zones were categorized by different methods. 12 U18 players undertook a routine battery of laboratory- and field-based assessments to de...

Aspartame in conjunction with carbohydrate reduces insulin levels during endurance exercise (2012)
Journal Article
Siegler, J., Howell, K., Vince, R., Bray, J., Towlson, C., Peart, D., Mellor, D., & Atkin, S. (2012). Aspartame in conjunction with carbohydrate reduces insulin levels during endurance exercise. Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition, 9, Article 36. https://doi.org/10.1186/1550-2783-9-36

Background: As most sport drinks contain some form of non-nutritive sweetener (e.g. aspartame), and with the variation in blood glucose regulation and insulin secretion reportedly associated with aspartame, a further understanding of the effects on i...

Sodium bicarbonate supplementation and ingestion timing: Does it matter? (2012)
Journal Article
Siegler, J. C., Marshall, P. W., Bray, J., & Towlson, C. (2012). Sodium bicarbonate supplementation and ingestion timing: Does it matter?. Journal of strength and conditioning research, 26(7), 1953-1958. https://doi.org/10.1519/JSC.0b013e3182392960

Although a considerable amount of literature exists on the ergogenic potential of ingesting sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) before short-term, high-intensity exercise, very little exists on optimal loading times before exercise. The purpose of this study... Read More about Sodium bicarbonate supplementation and ingestion timing: Does it matter?.
