Empirical Cycling Podcast · Perspectives #35: Continuously Realizing Potential, with Cole Tamburri

This episode we discuss Cole's evolution as a cyclist and our relationship between coach and athlete. From making lifelong friends in collegiate cycling, gaining over 100w of FTP, winning a national championship, realizing and encouraging agency as a coached athlete, balancing life priorities and the value of low stress environments, relationships with bodyweight and food, lifting weights, and much more.

Empirical Cycling Podcast · Watts Doc #50: Hypoxia And Muscular Adaptation

We consider hypoxia inducible factor's muscular response to high intensity exercise before going more in depth in its effects with the next episodes. We break down high intensity training, defining hypoxia vs anaerobic, then dive into a study that investigates its main effects in high intensity execise, as well as individual variation in training response. Plus a couple practical tips for considering this pathway in training, as well as a peek at the adaptive tradeoffs we'll see in future episodes.

Show Notes
Discovery of HIF1a and Nobel Prize
A HIF-1 signature dominates the attenuation in the human skeletal muscle transcriptional response to high-intensity interval training
Study on endurance training with sprints
