One of the most powerful tools in a runner's toolkit: running by feel. Running by feel means pacing and adjusting your effort based on internal cues: breath, heart rate, muscle fatigue, mental focus, instead of external metrics like GPS pace or heart rate data. According to a 2016 study in Frontiers in Physiology, perceived exertion is closely linked to physiological markers like lactate levels and heart rate, making it a reliable indicator of exercise intensity (Marcora et al., 2016). Running by feel is one of the most underrated skills in our sport. It helps you train smarter, recover better, and race with more confidence. Whether you're chasing a BQ, running your first 5K, or just trying to stay consistent, learning how different efforts feel in your body is a total game-changer.www.trainmk.com/links

Welcome to the Supporting Champions podcast, hosted by performance scientist Dr Steve Ingham. In this episode, Steve is joined by Professor Sam Marcora, a leading researcher whose psychobiological model has revolutionized our understanding of training and performance. Together, they delve into the fascinating intersection of psychology and physiology, focusing on how mental fatigue impacts physical performance. Sam shares groundbreaking insights into the role of perception of effort and how both physiological and psychological factors can alter it. The discussion explores innovative research, including the effects of subliminal cues on endurance and the importance of motivation, especially during training. The episode also pays tribute to Professor Roger Eston and his contributions to the field. In our discussions, Sam acknowledged the great influence of Professor Roger Eston and his work on the ratings of perceived exertion. Shortly after recording the episode we heard the sad news that Roger had passed away. We both want to send our best wishes to Roger's family and dedicate this episode to him! For those interested in exploring Professor Marcora's work further, you can follow him on his social media and review his research on Google Scholar. https://x.com/SamueleMarcora https://scholar.google.co.uk/citations?user=6xZXMqAAAAAJ&hl=en If you're interested in the science behind high performance and the subtle yet powerful ways the mind influences athletic output, this episode is a must-listen.

As an adult, there's a good chance you've experienced moments when your brain feels foggy or you struggle to concentrate. This phenomenon, commonly known as "fuzzy brain" or "brain fog," can be frustrating and impact your daily life. But what causes these symptoms, and are there solutions to combat them? In this article, we will delve into the causes of fuzzy brain symptoms and explore solutions to enhance your clarity and cognitive function. So, if you have ever wondered why your brain always feels foggy, keep reading to gain a better understanding of this condition and how to address it. What is Fuzzy Brain or Brain Fog? "Fuzzy brain," commonly referred to as "brain fog," is not a medical condition in itself but a term used to describe a set of symptoms affecting cognitive abilities. People experiencing brain fog may feel confused, disorganized, and have difficulty focusing, putting thoughts into words, or remembering things. This cognitive dysfunction is characterized by memory problems, lack of mental clarity, poor concentration, and an inability to focus, often described as mental fatigue. Common Signs and Symptoms Brain fog, often described as "fuzzy brain," is characterized by a constellation of symptoms related to cognitive dysfunction, including confusion, memory problems, lack of mental clarity, poor concentration, and the inability to focus. While the term "brain fog" is not always used explicitly in scientific literature, the symptoms it encompasses are well-documented in studies related to cognitive function and mental health. Below are the most common symptoms: Cognitive Impairment and Memory Problems: Cognitive dysfunction, including memory lapses and difficulties with recall, is a hallmark of brain fog. A study by Banks, S. et al. (2020) on sleep deprivation highlights how lack of sleep—a common contributor to brain fog—can impair memory and cognitive performance, simulating the symptoms of brain fog.Banks, S., Van Dongen, H. P. A., Maislin, G., & Dinges, D. F. (2010). Neurobehavioral dynamics following chronic sleep restriction: Dose-response effects of one night for recovery. Sleep, 33(8), 1013–1026. Lack of Mental Clarity and Poor Concentration: People experiencing brain fog often report a lack of mental clarity and difficulty concentrating.Gavelin, H. M., Neumann, S., Kovacs, A. H., Malmberg, F., Malmberg, J., Bonde, A. H., ... & Wicksell, R. K. (2021). Cognitive impairments in individuals with long COVID: A 6-month follow-up study. EClinicalMedicine, 41, 101159. Feeling of Mental Fatigue: Mental fatigue is another symptom frequently associated with brain fog. This encompasses a subjective sense of tiredness and a lack of energy for mental tasks.Marcora, S. M., Staiano, W., & Manning, V. (2009). Mental fatigue impairs physical performance in humans. Journal of Applied Physiology, 106(3), 857–864. Difficulty Stringing Thoughts Together: People with brain fog often describe a sensation of struggling to string thoughts together, leading to difficulties with speech or articulating ideas. This symptom points towards an impairment in executive function, which is crucial for planning, decision-making, and verbal fluency.Diamond, A. (2013). Executive functions. Annual Review of Psychology, 64, 135–168. Disrupted Executive Function: Executive dysfunction, including difficulty planning, organizing, and multitasking, is often reported in the context of brain fog. Such symptoms can stem from various conditions, including chronic stress and poor sleep. Stress can alter executive functions, leading to decreased cognitive flexibility and increased rigidity in thoughts and actions.Arnsten, A. F. T. (2009). Stress signalling pathways that impair prefrontal cortex structure and function. Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 10(6), 410–422. These symptoms collectively contribute to the subjective experience of brain fog, making daily cognitive tasks more challenging and impacting ove...

M. Abstract: Background: Genetic and experimental evidence strongly implicates myeloid cells in the etiology of AD and suggests that AD-associated alleles and genes may modulate disease risk by altering the transcriptional and cellular responses of macrophages (like microglia) to damage of lipid-rich tissues (like the brain). Specifically, recent single-cell/nucleus RNA sequencing (sc/nRNA-seq) studies identified a transcriptionally distinct state of subsets of macrophages in aging or degenerating brains (usually referred to as disease-associated microglia or DAM) and in other diseased lipid-rich tissues (e.g., obese adipose tissue, fatty liver, and atherosclerotic plaques). We collectively refer to these subpopulations as lipid-associated macrophages or LAMs. Importantly, this particular activation state is characterized by increased expression of genes involved in the phagocytic clearance of lipid-rich cellular debris (efferocytosis), including several AD risk genes. Methods: We used sc/nRNA-seq data from human and mouse microglia from healthy and diseased brains and macrophages from other lipid-rich tissues to reconstruct gene regulatory networks and identify transcriptional regulators whose regulons are enriched for LAM response genes (LAM TFs) across species. We then used gene knock-down/knock-out strategies to validate some of these LAM TFs in human THP-1 macrophages and iPSC-derived microglia in vitro, as well as mouse microglia in vivo. Results: We nominate 11 strong candidate LAM TFs shared across human and mouse networks (BHLHE41, HIF1A, ID2, JUNB, MAF, MAFB, MEF2A, MEF2C, NACA, POU2F2 and SPI1). We also demonstrate a strong enrichment of AD risk alleles in the cistrome of BHLHE41 (and its close homolog BHLHE40), thus implicating its regulon in the modulation of disease susceptibility. Loss or reduction of BHLHE40/41 expression in human THP-1 macrophages and iPSC-derived microglia, as well as loss of Bhlhe40/41 in mouse microglia led to increased expression of LAM response genes, specifically those involved in cholesterol clearance and lysosomal processing, with a concomitant increase in cholesterol efflux and storage, as well as lysosomal mass and degradative capacity. Conclusions: Taken together, this study nominates transcriptional regulators of the LAM response, experimentally validates BHLHE40/41 in human and mouse macrophages/microglia, and provides novel targets for therapeutic modulation of macrophage/microglia function in AD and other disorders of lipid-rich tissues.

What does mental fitness mean to you? I have a hard time picturing my brain lifting weights or doing a cardio workout but that's what I think of when I say mental fitness. The gym is a good analogy for mental fitness because there are various parts of mental fitness that we ignore to our detriment. We are going to talk about the good the bad and the ugly of mental fitness. I'm going to share with you some of the latest research, findings, and ways you can up your own mental fitness. How is that for a mental workout today? What makes you mentally tough? What does it require you to do? Or indeed not to do? This episode was shot on location in Greenwich, UK.

The PodiumRunner Endurance Podcast is hosted by Ian Sharman, a professional ultra runner and coach with over 200 marathons or ultra finishes and more than 50 wins (www.sharmanultra.com, @sharmanian). We discuss training and racing topics with leading sports scientists and how to practically apply research findings for marathoners and ultra runners. Episode 11: Professor Samuele Marcora and the Psychobiological Model of Endurance Performance This episode, we're talking to exercise physiologist Samuele Marcora. •  We discuss Marcora's psychobiological model of endurance performance and how the limiting factor for how hard and long you can push is the brain, not the body. •  He explains how increased fitness is vital, but mainly through the mechanism of reducing perceived effort, and that perceived effort is what matters most. •  We also discuss motivational intensity. •  We close on practical takeaways to improve your running and racing in the real world. •  Also, we mention the Brunel Mood Scale (or BRUMS) and its applications for athletes. Professor Marcora has studied and worked in the US, UK and Italy and holds a PhD in Exercise Physiology from the University of Wales-Bangor. He currently teaches applied physiology and training methodology at the University of Bologna and his research integrates exercise physiology with motivation psychology and cognitive neuroscience to better understand fatigue, endurance performance and physical activity behavior. Professor Marcora has authored numerous high-impact scientific publications and he has been a consultant for many organizations including Juventus Football Club, MAPEI Sport and ASICS. In 2013, he rode a BMW GS1200 bike from London to Beijing to investigate fatigue in motorbike riders. You can follow Prof. Marcora on Twitter at @samuelemarcora or visit his website.

In this episode of Science With Sergio, we go down the rabbit hole on the predictive coding model of cognition and how it relates to fatigue. As a quick reminder, on Science With Sergio episodes, we dig into a specific scientific paper and attempt to apply it to practical training advice through reckless, hand-wavey assumptions and careless oversimplifications. On this episode, we discuss Towards the unity of pathological and exertional fatigue: A predictive coding model from Aaron Greenhouse-Tucknott, Jake Butterworth, James Wrightson, Nicholas Smeeton, Hugo Critchley, Jeanne Dekerle, and Neil Harrison. The predictive coding model of cognition can be opaque and challenging at first, but it offers deep insight into what may be happening when we want to keep exercising but just get too tired. The authors of this paper argue that the sensation of fatigue may emerge as a response to the brain making poor predictions and realizing that there are huge differences from the data it is taking in from its sense and the predictions it made about what was going to happen. Basically, if you exercise too hard, you start to lose the ability to predict how your body is going to react, so your brain slows you down until it finds its footing again. While getting into the weeds of the model can have a sort of hall of mirrors, infinite regress feel to it, there are still practical takeaways for any coaches or athletes looking to better understand why people get tired.

Plyometrics are often used in sports like soccer, basketball, football, track & field, etc. But they are not used quite as often in strength-based sports like Olympic weightlifting, powerlifting, and strongman. Which is a shame, because plyometrics and other power and velocity-based training methods can have a huge positive impact on performance. In episode 17 we talk about how plyometrics can specifically improve areas of training adaption which will then help you with lifting heavier weights faster, getting past that sticking point, and hitting new PRs Don't forget to subscribe to the podcast because in future episodes I will talk about other ways of increasing power, like lifting with bands and chains.

I denne episoden er hovedtema treningsbelasning i fotball. I tillegg kommer vi inn på hvordan det er å være fysisk trener, og hvilke aspekt det er viktig å ha fokus på som fysisk trener. Episodens gjest heter Torstein Dalen-Lorentsen. Han er doktorgradstipendiat ved Norges Idrettshøgskole og har lang fartstid som fysisk trener for ulike idretter, blant annet fotball, alpint og håndball. Hans doktorgrad omhandler "styring av treningsbelastning for å redusere skader og sykdom i fotball", men under samtalen får vi vite at oppgaven har tatt en liten annen retning på grunn av nyere forskning som har dukket opp. Dersom du ønsker å vite hvilken retning, samt hva han mener om treningsbelastning mm. burde du absolutt ta deg tiden til å lytte på denne episoden.

We've talked a lot on the show about the role that the brain plays in determining performance in endurance events, but we haven't talked so much about how we can actually modify the brain's response to physical stress in order to improve our performance. In part, that's because this is a very difficult thing to practically address. Sun Sachs is here to change that. Sun is the co-founder of ReWire Cycling, a tech startup that is aiming to bring “brain training” to the endurance sport masses. Sun joined us in the Pain Cave last month to talk about how is background in cycling helped develop his interest in the mental side of the sport, the work of Samuel Marcora, the lowdown on “response inhibition training” and how he and his partner developed the app that may change how we view mental training for endurance athletes. Then, we welcomed back the great Laura Kline (32:30) to talk about her experience as a beta tester for the app, the changes she's noticed in her performance, and more.ReWire Cycling just launched a Kickstarter campaign to help secure funding for mass production of the app and the device we talked about here. If this campaign is successful, we may see this come to market in early 2020.

In his new book, Endure: Mind, Body, and the Curiously Elastic Limits of Human Performance, Alex Hutchinson tries to synthesize to wave of recent research on how the mind and body control human performance. In the end, he writes, the competing theories all come down to effort. Effort is what matters. On this week's episode we discuss his book, how effort can be trained, and great examples of some of these theories in practice.

Carl Reese - Endurance Rider & Record Setter You’ve probably heard of the Cannonball Baker or Cannonball Run. In 1933 Erwin George “Cannon Ball” Baker drove from New York City to Los Angeles in a Graham-Paige model 57 Blue Streak 8 in 53.5 hours. No one broke that record for 40 years. Car and Driver writer Brock Yates and editor Steve Smith organized the Cannonball Baker Sea-to-Shining-Sea Memorial Trophy Dash, which took place 5 times between 1971 and 1979. It was an illegal road race from coast to coast to celebrate the United States Interstate Highway System and to protest strict traffic laws which were coming in to effect at that time. The first run was not a competitive race, as there was only one team running in a 1971 Dodge Custom Sportsman van. But by the time they were running the last race it was known as a wild race. They ran everything from Ferraris to pick-up trucks. It was mostly a secret event, with few witnesses. As more and more people have tried to rush to break Cannonball Baker’s time, the route has become established and is commonly referred to as the Cannonball Baker or Cannonball Run. Carl Reese is a contractor from California, and in his spare time he’s an endurance rider that has set seven world records in less than a year. One being the solo motorcycle “Cannonball” from Los Angeles to New York.  Carl Reese set out to break the motorcycle record previously set by George Egloff in 1983, who completed the cross country run in 42 hours. Carl broke the record completing the run in 38 hours and 49 minutes. He’s now working on a documentary that highlights the history of transcontinental driving records. www.carlreese.net   Best Tips for Extended Motorcycle Travel from the Experts   We’ve consulted with some skilled and knowledgeable riders, one being a Professor at Kent University who has studied rider fatigue on what advice they would have for the average rider who wants to do some extended riding on their motorcycle.

Celiac Update. Celiac disease is an uncontrolled immune response to wheat gluten and similar proteins of rye and barley. In those who have celiac disease, gluten can damage the small intestine, inhibit nutritional uptake and lead to malnutrition. Among the symptoms are diarrhea, stomach pain, fatigue, weight loss and slow growth. One study estimated that 1 in 133 people in the U.S. population have celiac disease. Many people do not know they have it, sometimes because there are no symptoms. Because celiac disease has a genetic component, there can be a much higher prevalence of the disease within families.Three years ago, a group of Dutch researchers led by Frits Koning of the Leiden University Medical Center published a study on an enzyme that showed promise as a treatment for celiac disease. The enzyme, prolyl endoprotease, or PEP, could quickly break down gluten in the stomach before it ever reached the small intestine, where it causes damage. In this episode, we ask Frits Koning to update us on his research. (Begins at 2:45)Total Time:  11:20
