Happy to announce the launch of the @G2esports Performance Lab.
I'm honored to lead this, bringing together my 15+ years in high performance across sports and esports.

Check out the projects in the site and reach out to share your interest https://t.co/rd9YiFTBho

New publication Sports Medicine!

After 35 years, how well does Joyner’s endurance performance model still hold up?

I’m excited to share our latest paper where we used this classic model in a large cohort of 888 individuals , from recreational athletes to world-class.

🚨 New Publication in Journal of Applied Physiology!

Heat stress impairs exogenous carbohydrate oxidation during prolonged running when maintaining euhydration.

Tired of exhausting performance tests? #FoVE group is launching RACLET: a quick (~5 min), non-exhaustive test to assess the critical intensity threshold! 💪

A game-changer for researchers, coaches & clinicians.

3 preprints are out now! 👇

@Grazen With all the respect I have for you, it is time for you to take the next level of listening because currently it is not enough

[Loïs Mougin @LoisMougin]

Excited to see my MSc project published in EJSS!🎉

Muscle deoxygenation responses are similar between repeated sprints in hypoxia performed with uni- versus bi-lateral knee extensions but reduced compared to cycling.

🚨New article!

Our latest research shows that ingestible pills taken 3 hours before exercise may not prevent interference from tepid water ingestion when measuring gastrointestinal temperature.

[Luís Cristóvão @luis_cristovao]

Falhar um penálti numa grande competição é uma marca que fica. Daí que entregar essa responsabilidade a um jogador que tem estado fora da rotação da equipa seja um peso excessivo para juntar à pressão do momento. Um erro que se podia ter evitado.

[Tomás da Cunha @tomasrdacunha]

Digo antes do resultado ou dos penáltis. Este jogo representa a mudança de 2016 para 2024. Portugal não compete desde a inferioridade, como naquela final (quebrou a barreira psicológica). Nem precisa de milagres. Há equipa para enfrentar a França sem olhar de baixo para cima.

@tomasrdacunha Creio que um dos problemas está nas dinâmicas impostas pelo selecionador nas alas principalmente na direita tendo em consideração as características de bernardo ou chico conceição (é claro porque qualquer jogador da ala direita tem os mesmos comportamentos: pisam o mesmo terreno)
