Exercise (patho)physiologist and doctoral fellow @KU_Leuven researching (i) gut health-targeted interventions in prediabetes and (ii) breath-hold physiology
🚨NEW #Viewpoint by Vandecruys et al!
The evolution of peak oxygen uptake in chronic kidney disease:
🔘 4889 patients
🔘 Considerable variability in reported V̇O2peak levels at different disease stages
🔘 Impaired cardiorespiratory fitness limits physical activity

After 9 years, 16M+ time points, 600+ shifts across multiple countries, and 16 nationalities (🇦🇱 🇧🇩 🇨🇾 🇪🇬 🇬🇭 🇬🇷 🇮🇳 🇰🇪 🇳🇵 🇳🇮 🇵🇭 🇷🇴 🇸🇮 🇪🇸 🇻🇳) our study is complete! We reveal a U-shaped link between workplace temp & work time loss - optimal at 18°C (64°F).

🙌Today, we hosted a breakfast debate entitled, ‘Re-thinking health in the #EU for improved access to quality #diabetes prevention and care’ in the @Europarl_EN in Brussels 🇪🇺 and online, hosted by MEP @Peteragius_eu and opened by testimonials from people living with diabetes.
@DrTEHughes@Dan_Nash94@jem_arnold According to Garmin, my estimated running VO2max is ~54 ml/min/kg, while a lab test on a treadmill indicated a substantially higher value of 72 ml/min/kg.
🥉💥BRONS voor Sam de Visser op het EK G-zwemmen in Madeira! In de 400m vrije slag (S9) knalde hij naar plaats 3 in 4:19.50.👏🏊♂️
Geweldige opsteker met oog op de @Paralympics#Paris2024 !🔥

Delighted to share my latest publication and the next to final output stemming from my PhD. We previously found that administration of a #SCFA mixture to the colon of healthy participants attenuated the #cortisol response to acute #stress.. (1/6) https://t.co/Ih53xdVJB1
Our new work:
No upper limit to the anabolic response to protein ingestion?
Challenges current views on:
1⃣Dose-response relationship
2⃣"Excessive" protein getting oxidized
3⃣Protein distribution
4⃣MUCH more!

@StephenSeiler I collect data using a Polar H10 chest strap, and export the RR-intervals (CSV file) from Polar Flow, into Kubios (https://t.co/hAtBbtV1WK) for analysis.
"Athletes can feel, but can't see. Coaches can see, but can't feel"
The partnership model between athletes and coaches is the most effective for this reason, and why athletes don't outgrow benefitting from a coach, no matter how much experience is accumulated over time, as there is always value in sharing what can't be seen by the athlete.

Hyperhydration:
"Pre-exercise hyperhydration may improve exercise capacity during constant work rate exercise due to a reduced heart rate and core temperature, stemming from an acute increase in plasma volume"
