Predicting high‐performance decathlon career best
Abstract The decathlon is a 10‐event discipline in the sport of track and field, typically offered only for men at the elite level of competition (heptathlon is the complementary event for women). It is composed of 10 distinct events contested over 2 days. Using event‐specific coefficients, marks are converted to scores, which sum to produce an overall

Durability as an index of endurance exercise performance: Methodological considerations
Abstract Endurance athletes routinely complete physiological assessments to predict performance, inform training programmes and monitor subsequent training adaptations. This profiling is typically performed with the athlete in a ‘fresh’ (i.e., rested) condition, but physiological profiling variables deteriorate during prolonged exercise. Durability has

Abstract Athletes frequently compete only a few days after long‐haul travel. Longitudinal real‐world data on athletes’ sleep and sleep–wake cycle in competitive settings remain scarce. This study assessed the impact of a long‐haul travel across ∼13 time zones on sleep patterns, rest–activity circadian rhythms (RAR), and their subsequent effects on ...

Abstract Blood‐based measures are considered the gold standard for evaluating steroid hormone concentrations, particularly for confirmation of hormone profiles in female‐specific research. However, saliva sampling offers several advantages: it can be collected independently by participants, is less invasive and might be a more time‐ and cost‐effective ...
