Repeated Sprint Training in Heat Improves Repeated Sprint Ability Under Temperate Conditions Similarly in Active Males and Females

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Sport Science, Volume 26, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to compare the adaptive responses to repeated sprint training in heat (RSHT) on exercise performance under temperate conditions between males and females. Active males and females completed 7 weeks of repeated sprint training twice a week in temperate (CON, 20°C, 55% relative humidity (RH), males: n = 12, females: n =

Mathematical Comparison of Time‐Based and Stroke‐Based Fatigue Models in Elite Sprint Cycling: Convergence Analysis and Practical Applications

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Medicine &Science in Sports, Volume 36, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Power decline during maximal cycling sprints is commonly modeled using either the Parallel Shift Approach (PASA), representing fatigue as a time‐dependent downward shift of the linear force‐velocity (F‐v) relationship, or the Pedal Stroke‐Based Approach (PESA), which assumes a constant relative power loss per pedal stroke (Δ).
