Sympathetic/adrenergic hyperactivity can promote cancer progression by destabilizing genes, resisting cell death, boosting proliferation, evading immunity, increasing blood supply, & aiding spread/invasion.

β-blockers may improve cancer outcomes by disrupting these pathways.

I dive into the linkage of programmatic accreditation standards (e.g., @caahep, @CoAES_org, CASCE, @ESSA_NEWS) and @ACSMNews EP & CEP programs. Simply put, programmatic standards must clearly align w/ the expected competencies of the target profession.

HIIT can be a powerful tool but can lead to considerable ANS imbalance. Our study investigated how a supine posture during recovery between HIIT intervals may preserve cardiovagal function, promote ANS recovery and enhance readiness. 1/ https://t.co/QiTg1GPcDI

Thanks to the endurance of our team as this study progressed over several challenging years. @K_Coates @theliamstewart Dr. Gelinas, @TheWrightHeart @RobShave10 @StephenSeiler Dr. Eves.

6/ While we were careful to prescreen for this fairly novel methodology, this study demonstrated, supine recovery within HIIT attenuates acute cardioautonomic perturbation and accelerates post-exercise vagal reactivation.

Curious how different training intensities and volumes affect mitochondrial growth, capillaries, and VO2max?🚴

Check out our new meta-regression, free to access in @SportsMedicineJ! 📖

Team effort with good friends @MrMoelmen & @AlmquistNicki 💪

Modelled changes in VO2max over time with different training interventions. Log-linear response

Haven't fully digested this entire behemoth meta yet (aggregating 353 studies & ~6000 participants!), but this might be my new favourite figure 👏

The rhythmic discussion about bicycle helmets 🪖 in NL 🇳🇱shows us something.

There are many people, politicians and experts who want to do the right thing (reduce trauma and misery) but who are not willing to challenge the car system itself.
