1994….

This photo was taken during a VO₂max test when I was a young competitive cyclist and a physiology student at Colorado State University.

My VO₂max was 76.7 mL·kg⁻¹·min⁻¹ 🤘😊

Back then, VO₂max was the number. The holy grail of endurance performance.

But something didn’t add up. With such a high a VO₂max, I should have made it to the Tour de France... Clearly, there was another layer that VO₂max and physiology back then couldn’t explain.

That question changed my life. It led me to follow the work of Dr. George Brooks and into the fascinating world of lactate metabolism, muscle bioenergetics, mitochondrial function, pyruvate oxidation and metabolic flexibility…

32 years later, my questions are no longer about how much oxygen the body can consume, but about muscle bioenergetics and metabolic equilibrium. I’ve been incredibly fortunate to contribute to this field and to have worked alongside my longtime scientific idol, Dr. Brooks.

Ironically, VO₂max has recently re-emerged as one of the hottest topics in health and longevity.

But after spending 3 decades studying metabolism in sports performance and disease, I’ve come to see VO₂max not as the destination, but as the beginning of the story.

The real story starts inside the cell, inside mitochondria…

In his @FT interview, @ediramaal answered citizens protesting over the Kushner-linked resort with accusations, deflection and contempt. Calling the square a foreign plot, or replying with “f**k you” to those demanding answers, is not leadership. When people ask about protected land, money laundering and power, democracy requires respect. The square must be heard, not insulted. Albania deserves transparency, not arrogance.

Thousands of Albanians have taken to the streets of the country's capital Tirana for 21 consecutive days in protests sparked by concerns over a Jared Kushner-backed luxury tourism development in an area rich in natural beauty. https://t.co/V5ZUN5t4Db

What began as anger over access to beaches and the protection of environment turned into the question of who should decide, and how, about the future of #Albania 🇦🇱 #day14 🦩

The United States has spent EIGHT TRILLION DOLLARS fighting and policing in the Middle East. Thousands of our Great Soldiers have died or been badly wounded. Millions of people have died on the other side. GOING INTO THE MIDDLE EAST IS THE WORST DECISION EVER MADE.....

Hey, @grok, who was the most famous person to visit my profile? It doesn't need to be a mutual, don't tag them, just say who it was.

Fan running up a mountain in an antler helmet and custom Tadej Pogacar Seahawks jersey at the Tour de France! 😂 #TDF2025

VLAB tactics on stages 1-11 were suicidal. They burned too many matches for no gains. Matteo, Jonas were cooked and it showed

[Mihai Simion @faustocoppi60]

⏱️ The new Top 100 Hautacam: Tadej Pogacar is now the 2nd fastest ever after Riis. Meanwhile, Vingegaard was 40 sec slower compared to 2022. Pogi was at a lower level today than in last year's TDF and Jonas much lower. #TDF2025

[Andi Çomo @libohovit]

@Herbert_Bergman @tomdanielson Data shows that Pogi performed worse than last year, whereas Jonas was much much worse. Are you telling me a dialed in Jonas only gains 13 secs on Lipo and 50 on two unknown riders? Visma f'd up, pure and simple

I don't know what season of Monty Python sketches we're living in right now? Life of Brian? Meaning of Life?
