Interrelationships between stress, eating attitudes, and metabolism in endurance athletes across a competitive season

Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 1558-1572, November 2024. A competitive sport season represents a multidimensional stressor where physical and psychological stress may render an athlete susceptible to energy deficiency (ED). Downstream effects of ED can include a reduction in measured-to-predicted resting metabolic rate (RMRratio), indicating metabolic compensation. A pathway linking

“But will they do it?” Challenging assumptions and incivility in the academic discourse on high-intensity interval training

Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 1461-1470, November 2024. Debate over whether to promote high-intensity interval training (HIIT) in public-health contexts has centred on assumptions that people will have negative psychological responses to HIIT, leading to poor adoption and adherence. We challenge these assumptions through reviews of (1) studies that have
