The placebo effect can have trivial to small beneficial effects on time-to-exhaustion and time-trial performance. And, believing that something will work might help it work. But, before playing with the unknown, first invest your valuable time and money in optimising your training load, sleep, nutrition, and rest.

Vitamin D primarily regulates calcium metabolism and bone health. If your habitual diet is deficient in foods containing vitamin D or you lack daily year-round exposure to sunlight, you are at risk of a vitamin D deficiency and a vitamin D supplement may be advised under guidance from your doctor. If you have a vitamin D deficiency and/or are of older age and combining supplementation with strength training, daily vitamin D supplementation is likely to help increase and restore muscle strength. But, if you don’t have a vitamin D deficiency, supplementing with vitamin D is highly unlikely to boost your performance or recovery.

Fish oils, oily fish, predatory fish, algae, and seeds & nuts contain the omega-3 fatty acids DHA and EPA. If your habitual diet is deficient in foods containing DHA and EPA then an omega-3 or fish oil supplement may be advised. A daily omega-3 or fish oil supplement is likely to alleviate muscle soreness and restore range of motion following muscle-damaging exercise. But, a daily omega-3 or fish oil supplement is highly unlikely to improve your performance unless you are of older age and/or deficient in DHA and EPA.

CBD and THC are cannabinoids found in cannabis plants. THC (or cannabis) is very unlikely to improve strength/endurance performance (and is more likely to impair it). CBD is also unlikely to improve performance or recovery but high-quality randomised controlled trials are needed so a systematic review and meta-analysis can be completed.

Ketones are fuels that your body uses to produce energy (ATP) when carbohydrate stores (glycogen) are depleted and blood glucose is low. Ketone supplementation is unlikely to boost your endurance performance. But, there is a need for studies of ultra-distance performance (during which ketone supplements might become relevant).

L-carnitine is an amino acid found in muscles that helps “shuttle” fatty acids into your mitochondria so they can be “burned” to produce ATP. Supplementing with L-carnitine or propionyl-L-carnitine either daily or before a session/race might boost your performance during high-intensity exercise. But, the evidence is limited, very little data exists on trained athletes, and a quality meta-analysis is lacking.

Sodium bicarbonate is a salt with buffering properties that can “mop up” hydrogen (H+) ions to lower acidity (pH). Taking a sodium bicarbonate supplement before a session or race is likely to boost your performance during high-intensity short-duration events lasting between ∼45 seconds and ~8 minutes. Taking sodium bicarbonate before exercise is also likely to boost muscular endurance (“reps-to-failure”) and repeated maximal sprint power.

β-hydroxy β-methylbutyrate (aka HMB) is a carboxylic acid found in muscle that can simultaneously promote muscle protein synthesis and prevent muscle protein breakdown. Daily HMB supplementation is likely to help increase muscle strength in folks who are previously untrained but not in trained athletes.

BCAAs — leucine, isoleucine, and valine — are “essential” amino acids that we need to obtain through our diet. Post-exercise BCAA supplementation might help alleviate muscle soreness after vigorous exercise but supplementation with BCAAs or leucine is unlikely to directly boost your performance.

Nitrate is found in leafy green veg and beetroot, and regulates vascular and metabolic function. Pre-exercise supplementation with sodium nitrate or beetroot juice is likely to boost your performance during strength, power, and speed-based events. Nitrate/beetroot is likely to improve endurance exercise capacity (time-to-exhaustion) but not time trial performance, and is typically only evident in recreational level athletes — the endurance-enhancing effect is blunted in highly-trained endurance athletes.

Today, I finish my series on fatigue with a sprint for the line, which is when you can always find a little something more to give. But, that something might not always be enough. To help understand that, I’ve got something about crocodiles, Yoda, and a little bit about a concept called “critical speed”.

In my Alpine neck of the woods, tis that traditionally jolly time of year when Krampus comes to town to scare the naughty kids. But, in modern times, Krampus also haunts the festive races and takes down any ill-prepared athletes in his way. In this first instalment of a two-part series, I will visit the phenomenon of sudden involuntary muscle contractions — exercise-associated muscle cramps — aka a runner’s nightmare.

Continuous Glucose Monitoring (aka CGM) is being marketed to athletes as a “fuel gauge” to provide “glucose performance zone” targets. I’ve gone deep to help you learn what CGM is, what its limitations are, whether blood glucose concentrations represent a fuel gauge, and whether "glucose performance zones" are even real, or useful, or dodgy.

This article contains a mix of robust science and my own opinions about throwing CGMs at athletes. Since I have over 10-years of experience using CGMs, I believe I have a right to an informed opinion on this topic.

Welcome to this deep-dive series on #training and #racing in the #heat.

It is always hot somewhere in the world. If you are in that part of the world and are too hot, you need to cool it. Why? Because being too hot is bad for you. This 3-part series on training and racing in the heat will start by delving into what heat does to you (Part 1) and will then dive deep into what you can do about it on race day (Part 2) and how to heat acclimate before race day (Part 3).

In the first 3 parts of this series, I covered the physiology of water and electrolyte balance (Part 1 https://www.veohtu.com/hydration-1-whatweknow.html), why there is contradiction in the narratives (Part 2 https://www.veohtu.com/hydration-2-whatwearentsureabout.html) and why there is confusion about sodium (Part 3 https://www.veohtu.com/hydration-3-whatwedontknow.html). But, if you don’t care about any of that, in this final part of this series I will delve into the nuances, practicalities, and logistics of what you can do to manage your hydration on race day.

Welcome to a 4-part deep-dive series on #hydration.

The feeling of thirst, which drives your desire to drink fluid, is one of the most tightly regulated processes in the human body. So why are there so many reminders about how to stay hydrated? And, why is it all so complicated? This series will deconstruct the flood of information in four parts, addressing “what we know”, “what we aren’t sure about”, “what we don’t know”, and “what you can do”. Here, in part 1, I will bomb-dive into the pool of hydration to see what we know.

This is the fifth instalment in my series on nutritional manipulations for training and performance…

If you’ve followed this series, you’ve become a bioenergetics nerd and have knowledge of how to acutely increase your fat oxidation rates during exercise. You have also taken the plunge into the 100-year history of low-carb diets and you understand what happens to your economy and performance when habituated to a low-carbohydrate diet.

But, one very important question remains… Is a low or a high-carb diet your best approach for enhancing your performance?

Today, you will find out.

Learning to eat to be ready to go again starts with adopting a healthy eating pattern. Then you can integrate sports nutrition, which includes understanding the timing of between-session nutrition and the importance of eating carbohydrate to replenish glycogen and eating protein to increase muscle protein synthesis. To wrap up this delicious nutritional journey to recovery, I will examine the evidence behind the 3 to 1 carbohydrate:protein ratio that has ubiquitously infected the sports nutrition world...

Your performance is a manifestation of appropriate training. Your training adaptations are dictated by the frequency, intensity, time and type of your sessions, the progression of your load, and your recovery from it. Being “ready to go again” is critical for making fitness gains in a healthy manner. In this series of posts, I will unravel what recovery is and what you can do to optimise it.

The principles of “stress, rest, adapt, and grow” inform the design of your training. But, a deeper understanding of what happens within your muscle will help you learn how to use different stimuli to achieve your performance goals. To add that knowledge to your toolbox, here I will pass on a little insight into the world of muscle biology.

Most of the commercially-available training platforms like Strava, Elevate, Training Peaks, and Final Surge use fitness vs. fatigue or acute- vs. chronic-load relationships to assess your “performance”. These calculate various “stress scores”, including the heart rate stress score (HRSS) and the running total stress score (rTSS), that originate from something called the “training impulse”, aka TRIMP. Here I will explain what all these things are, how they can be useful, and where they are limited.

The fundamentals of training philosophy are the backbone of the Veohtu training framework, which depicts exercise and recovery as the two facets of your training. Your training must be continually-evolved in line with your needs to facilitate maximal gains and subsequent achievement of your goals. However, to evolve, you need to monitor the stress being placed on you, i.e. you need to monitor your “training load”. Continue on to find out how.

In my recent series on cold exposure, I touched on the dive response and breath-holding. I wanted to follow up on this in relation to exercise performance but got a little side-tracked with coronavirus-related life-disruption… Finally, after more globe spins than I would have liked, here are some thoughts.

I hope that everyone is doing well amidst this chaotic pandemic. Since home quarantine laws were imposed, it is an important time to maintain daily physical activity in pursuit of optimising health and maintaining fitness. Before considering high-volume, high-intensity training in the confines of quarantine law, I encourage you all to learn a little more about the effect of exercise on immunology.

It’s getting cold in here; please don’t take off all your clothes.

Part 3. Can you acclimate to brace the cold?

In Part 1 I discussed the risks of winter training and in Part 2 I described the approaches you might take to help mitigate the risks of hypothermia. To conclude this series, I will help you learn from Wim Hof, Korean sea-diving women, and marine mammals, to understand whether you can acclimate to the cold.

Part 2 - Risk management.

If you listened to Part 1, you are now well-informed about the risks of winter training and what hypothermia is. To continue with my quest to help you train smart, in Part 2 I outline what you can do before you step out the door to help manage your risk of succumbing to the dark side of the winter: your energy status and clothing choices.

World Athletics + rule change = confusion + sadness.

For endurance running, the last couple of years have been rather exciting. But the excitement has been largely fuelled by technological advances. Speed skating had the clap skate and swimming had the full-body LZR suit. While the latest technological advance in running is cool, it comes at a cost... we no longer know what we are watching.

Part 1. Understanding hypothermia.

Winter can be a magical time but it carries some risks. Understanding exercise in cold conditions is critical for maintaining health and fitness development during the winter training phase. Having spent much of my life in cold environments, with this series of articles I intend to shed some light on training smart while successfully avoiding freezing one’s nuts off.

Article out today.

https://www.veohtu.com/article-20191221-nurture-your-nature

The “nature versus nurture” debate bounces back into the limelight from time to time. In this article, I explain the background behind the persistence of this debate and ultimately describe why it is an irrational discussion point. Disclaimer: This article jumps into the depths of science. Yet, those depths are disentangled with the use of violins, chess, and obstacle-racing.
