We stretched the ketones-as-robot-butt metaphor to its limits for this awesome episode! The main topic was a new study measuring fatigue resistance in marathons. Athletes completed lab tests prior to a marathon, with final results correlating with different attributes. Unfortunately, the athletes weren't fueling during the protocol. What is this, 2005?! We broaden it out for conclusions that apply to everyone. Fatigue resistance without carbs is a stupid human trick, and there's no need to play that game.And this one was full of our favorite topics!

The universe as revealed by physics is objective: it's out there, existing and behaving in ways that are completely independent of human thought. But the process by which we learn about the universe, and the language with which we talk about it, is extremely human-dependent. Does that mean that aliens would do science differently, and even think differently about physics, even if we all live in the same universe?

Spencer Martin and Johan Bruyneel break down the latest news in professional cycling, including rumors that Tadej Pogačar could skip the 2026 Tour de France and the stunning suspension of Red Bull–BORA–Hansgrohe's Oier Lazkano. Johan shares his theory on why good—but not truly elite—riders often run afoul of the UCI's Biological Passport system, and the duo debates whether this is ultimately a positive or negative development for the sport. They also discuss Isaac Del Toro's recent comments about his decision not to follow Simon Yates at the Giro d'Italia, before taking a few listener questions from the live Members' chat.

That gets you access to our Discourse community, where listeners share views and tips on sports science, health and training, and the chance to become part of the Sports Science conversation!Show notesIn this Spotlight, we kick off with three doping stories in Discourse Digest. Ruth Chepngetich got a three year ban, up from two, then down from four, and keeps the marathon world record nobody believes in. We discuss why her case is so frustrating for sport. Imogen Simmonds has been cleared to compete despite an Anti Doping Rule Violation, after she convinced a panel that her positive test was the result of contamination by her partner during intimate contact. And Oier Lazkano has been provisionally suspended by the UCI for athlete biological passport (ABP) abnormalities that date back to 2022. Ross explains the biological passport principles, why a suspension based on the ABP is so rare, and why it might have taken this long to bring the case against Lazkano.In Centre Stage (42:23), two papers on metabolic costs of exercise were published last week, with contradictory findings. We first explore a paper that proposes a metabolic limit of 2.5 our basal metabolic rate, and where that study fits into our understanding of exercise and metabolism. Then we consider another paper that contradicts that understanding by refuting the idea that our bodies constrain certain metabolic functions when we exercise in the equivalent of what Ross calls 'physiological austerity'. We try to explain why these studies contradict one another, the importance of energy balance in metabolism, and why there's a bit of truth in both models on opposite sides of the issue.Our Listener Lens (1:10:12) is inspired by a question from Leon, who asks about using heat as a way to increase cardiovascular stress without overloading his legs. We discuss how heat may be beneficial even without that cardiovascular benefit, why HR may not be the best metric to judge intensity against, and how the approach might be a handy hack, but only part of the approach with a few words of caution.And Finally (1:20:52), Gareth wonders whether the sub-2 hour marathon is more impressive than the sub-11 hour 100 mile record?LinksSean Ingle's article on Nike's new shoesArticle interviewing Pontzer about the constrained modelThe Pontzer study on ultra endurance athletes and the metabolic ceilingThe study that disputes Pontzer's constrained model, arguing instead for an additive effect of exerciseA discussion on X that eventually brings two authors together to discuss the contradictory findingsA comment in Nature on the debate and an attempt to find some middle ground Hosted on Acast.

Oier Lazkano is door de UCI geschorst voor afwijkende bloedwaarden in de periode 2022-2024. Hij reed toen voor het Spaanse team Movistar. De ploeg heeft al laten weten met een statement dat alle testen altijd negatief bleken, maar dat doet nu heel wat vragen rijzen. Hoe werkt dat bloedpaspoort? En is het volledig waterdicht? Met die vragen kloppen we aan bij hoogleraar aan de UGent en dopingjager Peter Van Eenoo en bij ex-renner en sportief directeur bij Movistar Jurgen Roelandts.

Het is eind oktober/begin november en het wielrennen ligt stil. Of althans, dat doet de kalender vermoeden. Niets is minder waar. Deze normaal nieuwsluwe periode is dat dit jaar allesbehalve. Dat heeft vooral met veel slecht nieuws te maken, helaas. Je hoort er alles over in de nieuwste aflevering van de WielerFlits Podcast!Verslaggevers Maxim en Youri staat uitgebreid stil bij de verschillende nieuwsfeiten die voor ons liggen. Zo kon je eerder deze week op WielerFlits lezen dat Louis Barré bij Visma | Lease a Bike de vrijgekomen plek van Cian Uijtdebroeks moet innemen. Er is echter nog een horde te nemen. Barré's huidige ploeg Intermarché-Wanty wil geld zien voor de Fransman, want hij was een van de beoogde kopmannen voor de aanstaande fusieploeg Lotto-Intermarché. Ze beroepen zich op het Belgisch arbeidsrecht, dat internationale sportregels - waaronder die van de UCI - overstijgt.Dat verhaal krijgt ongetwijfeld nog een staartje, hetzelfde geldt voor de nakende transfer van Biniam Girmay naar Israel-Premier Tech. Al bij al lijkt het erop dat de fusieploeg een paar serieuze knauwen te verwerken krijgt voordat de samenvloeiing bekrachtigd is. Ook bij Jayco AlUla waren er problemen om aan de licentie-aanvraag voor de WorldTour te voldoen voor de mannen- en vrouwenploeg. De voortekenen daarvoor waren zorgelijk. Komend weekend moet al het benodigde papierwerk binnen zijn bij de UCI om alsnog de toekomst van de ploeg te verzekeren.Bij Picnic PostNL zijn er eveneens ontwikkelingen. Eerder deze week publiceerden we op WielerFlits de transfer van Henri-François Renard-Haquin, maar dat is niet de laatste aanwinst van de ploeg. Nóg een thema die deze week ruim aan bod kwam op onze site, is het verdwijnen van veel klassementscrossen achter de betaalmuur in Vlaanderen. Onze veldritspecialist Niels haakt daarvoor aan, want dit kan wel eens een pijn gaan doen - zeker in de portemonnee. Ook blikken we vooruit op de Koppenbergcross van zondag.

At 46, professional off-road cyclist and coach Serena Bishop Gordon has redefined what she thought was possible—physically, mentally, and emotionally. From second place at this year's Unbound XL (360 miles in 22:19:56 hours) to multiple podiums at Oregon Trail Gravel Grinder, Serena shares how she's learned to let go of limits, release outcomes, and lean into curiosity. We dive into the mental shift that unlocked her best performances, how underfueling can mimic perimenopause, and all the ways midlife women can get faster and go longer than they ever thought possible. She also breaks down what women can expect during Feisty's Winter Training for Cyclists 16-week program she's coaching starting this December. Serena Bishop Gordon is a professional off-road cyclist, coach, and community builder with more than a decade of racing at the elite level. She's delivered standout results at Unbound XL, Oregon Trail Gravel, Cape Epic, Breck Epic, and international UCI cyclocross. Her strengths lie in technical terrain, strategic pacing, and mental toughness—skills honed over thousands of miles and many seasons. Serena founded Special Blend Gravel, a coaching and community-building organization that uplifts women through camps, coaching, and inclusive community, guided by a “person first, athlete second” philosophy that centers joy, balance, and connection. She lives in Bend, Oregon, with her husband, Ben, and their dog, Piper—and believes that with strong coffee and a strong community, she can navigate just about any challenge.

Catalyst is a Creative Industries podcast, from Chapman University. Each episode features Chapman students who have completed a Podcasting course through the Center for Creative and Cultural Industries at the university. Students who had no podcasting experience or technical ability in the genre before taking the course were able to contribute all the segments to Catalyst this season with the goal being that they will take this ‘hands-on' experience and carry it over to the launching of their very own series. Each episode of Season 14 will feature one to two different interviews conducted by CCI students, exploring different aspects of the Creative and Cultural Industries. Our first segment of the podcast this week features and interview by Madison McMinn, who speaks with Entrepreneur and founder of Beachside Custom Gyms, Kali Sudbrrok. Growing up in Southern California, Kali earned both her undergraduate and master's degrees at Cal State Fullerton before beginning her professional life as a fitness program director at UCI. Over time, her creative drive led her to take a leap of faith and start her own company, Beachside Custom Gyms, where she combines her passions for fitness, design, and construction to create personalized spaces for her community. Kali shares about the challenges of transitioning to entrepreneurship, giving honest insights into what it is like to leave a stable job for an unpredictable creative career. She also covers how she has navigated working in a male-dominated industry, and the importance of curiosity and persistence. Concluding today's episode ShelBee Wu, aerial performer and instructor, sits down to talk to Grace Max about the artistry and athleticism have shaped her creative career. Grace and Bee explore what it is really like behind the scenes of teaching fitness through alternative arts, from how Bee creates an inclusive and supportive environment for her students to the transformations she witnesses as they gain confidence, strength, and self-expression through movement. Bee also reflects on how social media has played a crucial role in building community and expanding awareness around this unique type of athleticism and expression.

Emergency episode time!Caley and Ronan dive into a story that started with chainrings and cogs, and ended up in court. The BCA has ordered the UCI to suspend its new Maximum Gear Ratio Standard, siding with SRAM in a dispute that could reshape how cycling's rules are made. What began as a “safety test” for rider speed has become a battle over who really governs the sport, and whether the UCI is still above competition law.

On this week's episode of the BikeRadar news podcast, Jack Luke is again joined by Simon von Bromley to discuss the biggest tech stories in cycling this week. First up, Jack and Simon discuss the UCI's recently updated helmet regulations for the 2026 road racing season. As all too often, the updated rules appear to leave plenty of room for riders and teams to be creative – or perhaps even to keep using certain time trial helmets in road races. They then discuss Shimano's new polished-silver CUES groupset – could it be a sign of more shiny things to come from the Japanese component giant? Following that, Jack grills Simon on the latest piece in his series on the ‘state of play' in hookless rims, and why the professional rider's union wants to see them banned. Lastly, Jack introduces last week's top-performing story on BikeRadar – which also happens to be his ‘rant of the week' – which was the news that the British Transport Police will not investigate bike thefts at train stations where the bike has been left for more than two hours. Needless to say, Jack and Simon aren't impressed.   The UCI has just clarified its new helmet regulations – but it's left me with more questions than a… Is this polished-silver CUES groupset a sign Shimano is finally listening to riders?

After a tumultuous season, international cycling team Israel–Premier Tech, co-owned by Canadian-Israeli billionaire Sylvan Adams, is officially going to change its name and remove the word "Israel". The decision comes after repeated anti-Israel protests across Europe disrupted the team—whose international roster of 31 cyclists includes just three Israelis—during their open-road events, which can last hundreds of kilometres across the continent. Several cyclists crashed due to protester intervention. The decision to remove Israeli branding from Israel–Premier Tech led co-owner Adams to announce he would step away from day-to-day involvement with the team. There's a lot to be said about the political ramifications of wearing the Israeli name on your shirt in 2025, but our sports podcasters have a different theory about the shift. Israel–Premier Tech enjoyed a successful season that brought them back to full status with the UCI World Tour, after being relegated down to the secondary UCI ProSeries since 2023. That means the stakes are higher, the stage is bigger, and the league's propensity for risk and disruption may well have shrunk considerably. Is this purely a move to placate protesters, or are the team members—and possibly UCI executives—trying to prevent more bad press in the coming year? Also on the docket: the boys talk about the Toronto Blue Jays' run to the American League championship series, big baseball moves, early NHL impressions and a quick NFL check-in.

Join Discourse and contribute to the Spotlight, and join the conversation - a small monthly donation gets you membership to our community, and that allows you to drive discussion around these shows, and get even more value and insight from what other listeners are sharing.Show notesIn Spotlight this week, we look back at a packed weekend of sports action and offer insights on the big events. We kick it off with the AFL (1:39), where the Grand Final was played, and where listener Josh sent in an article exploring how the body shape and size of players have evolved over the years. Gareth wonders whether the players adapt to the game, or whether the game adapts to the athleticism of its players, and Ross explains the physiological equivalent of 'form follows function'.Then we move to Rugby (9:56), where England were crowned World Champions at the weekend, crowing an unbeaten World Cup cycle in which they've averaged 50 points a match and not lost a single match. The final wasn't exactly smooth sailing, and Gareth and Ross share some thoughts on what impressed us, and where Canada may have fallen short, with hopes for continued growth in the game.From Rugby to cycling for a brief last look back at the Rwanda World Champs (23:10), but where off-bike news in the form of the UCI back-pedal on handlebar widths and other policy changes are the main focus of conversation.Cycling gives way to golf (38:48), and the Ryder Cup, which looked like a foregone conclusion until it wasn't, and one of the year's great sports spectacles unfolded in New York. We learn how Europe used data analytics and simulations to optimize its foursome and fourball combinations, and wonder when data becomes a hinderance as opposed to a helper in sport?In response to a spate of serious ACL injuries in the NFL and in football (51:58), Gareth wonders whether something is happening, perhaps related to the training and conditioning of athletes, or the turf, to increase ACL injury risk? Ross is less sure, explaining how rare injuries can throw up misleading 'patterns', compounded by media bias.We wrap up with some doping stories (55:52), including the CAS decision in the case of Erriyon Knighton, who was initially cleared of doping when he was able to show contamination of an oxtail meal he consumed. But CAS didn't see it the same way, and he got a four year ban because of their interpretation of the pharmacokinetics and the relative levels of the banned substance in the oxtial compared to in his urine. We also go to Kenya, where an athlete admitted not only to taking EPO, but explaining how he obtained it. Whether it's a truthful account is anyone's guess.And finally (1:03:16), the NFL came to (Dublin) town last weekend, and the juxtaposition of some high profile rugby players and the NFL kicked off a conversation comparing the two sports. We end with a semi lighthearted look at the helmet and pad culture of American Football, and offer thoughts on why rugby's lack of protective equipment doesn't necessarily make it more dangerous.LinksTaller, leaner, faster AFL playersYou can read the Knighton CAS decision hereNo Laying Up Golf Analytics Podcast Hosted on Acast.

It's also as light and expensive as ever, of course.   We also discuss Tadej Pogačar's tricked-out Colnago Y1Rs from the Rwanda world championships, and speculate why the Slovenian rider switched to Continental's new Archetype tyres for this race.   Finally, instead of ending with a ‘rant of the week', Simon and Jack give a rare shoutout to the UCI for its recently announced cost cap for track cycling bikes and equipment, which will be introduced ahead of the Los Angeles Olympics Games in 2028.

Will lower gearing make for safer racing? The UCI thinks so, but it could also make all of SRAM's 1X drivetrains verboten at the highest level of competition without affecting Shimano or Campagnolo. SRAM disagrees, obviously, and has begun legal action in Europe, citing reputational damage and EU competition laws. And as you'd expect, the UCI responded yet again. That and more on this week's episode of Velo Podcast. Velo Tech Editor Josh Ross and host Mike Levy dig into the details of the UCI's potential 10.46-meter rollout rule and why SRAM's 10-tooth cog doesn't comply, safer courses versus lower gearing, and the UCI's near silence when it comes to so many issues. We also discuss the UCI president's social media post congratulating Tadej Pogacar on his TT World Champs victory in Rwanda, despite Remco being the actual victor, and we look at Alvin's first impressions of Factor's new Aluto gravel bike.

Guys, the Vuelta is over and, well, what a race. My favourite grandy felt a little bit different this year with a huge amount of disruption, tension and uncertainty that meant the racing took a back seat for a lot of people. We saw some unreal rides from Jonas Vingegaard, Tom Pidcock, and utter dominance from UAE Emirates. Holy shit, they were good, chaotic at times, but banked a whole heap of stage wins. The anti-Israel protests that impacted the race so much really shone a light on how fragile and vulnerable bike racing is. There were some hairy moments out there on the road, and – although the bunch made it to Madrid – the riders were robbed of the traditional podium ceremony. But, in this disruption, we saw one of the coolest, old school, grassroots style podiums I've ever seen in Pro Cycling. Our British Boys, Harry & Stu, have put together a banger of an episode for this month's ep of Life In The Peloton's Race Radio. Here's what old mate Stu Downie has to say about this month's Race Radio: With La Vuelta ending in what could be both the best and worst podium we've ever seen, we invited our mate Sean Hardy along to chat – why? Because he was in that very car park to witness the madness of the day unfold. Sean has been Lidl-Trek's photographer for a few years now, earning the trust of the riders – including fan favourite and points jersey winner Mads Pedersen – and making some of the best pictures in racing. We hear about the day, get a severe case of FOMO, and get the lowdown on life in the Lidl-Trek bus. We also consider the history of protest in cycling, talk about racing's place within wider culture, and wonder aloud when the UCI will do something about the more severe cases of sports washing. A nice light chat to start the weekend, no? Guys, I hope you like this episode as much as I do. I can't believe we're coming to the end of the race season, with just the World Champs in Rwanda and Lombardia left to go! Catch up soon, Cheers, Mitch

Listen up class! The Cycling Podcast Féminin has returned after our post Tour de France Femmes summer break and we have that back-to-school feeling. Rose Manley, Denny Gray and Rebecca Charlton tackle some enticing subjects after a number of contentious topics have arisen over recent weeks. We discuss weight loss in cycling, the disqualification of five teams at the Tour de Romandie, Lorena Wiebes' continued domination and we look ahead to the World Championships in Rwanda. We broach the furore surrounding Pauline Ferrand Prevot's four kilogram weight loss in preparation for her victorious Tour de France Femmes campaign and delve further into the conversations around health, weight and disordered eating that have been brought up in the weeks since. In technology (or as Denny says, should it be politics?) we talk about the disqualification of five major teams at the Tour de Romandie after refusing to pick a rider to trial the UCI's new GPS tracking system. The teams – Visma Lease-a-Bike, Canyon SRAM, EF Education Oatly, Picnic Post NL and Lidl Trek – wanted the UCI to choose the riders, citing that mounting the 60 gram tracker would put that rider at a disadvantage. The UCI refused and disqualified the teams before the start of the race. The fall out has raised a number of questions over safety, stakeholder rights, the commercialisation of cycling and data usage and ownership, all of which we go into here. In geography, we cast our eyes over the upcoming World Championships route in Rwanda, centred around the capital city of Kigali. The race is notable not just for being the first time that the World Championships have been held in Africa but also for promising some dramatic racing on a climb-packed course. Also on the agenda: the debating club champion debates with herself and the odd things Denny used to do at the back of the bus with a protractor… or should that be a pair of compasses… OUR SPONSORS, LLOYDS The Cycling Podcast is proudly supported by Lloyds.

This week on the show Kathryn and Kristi are chatting with French cyclist, Cécile Lejeune. Cécile grew up in the suburbs of Paris, and got her start in endurance sport in triathlon at age 12. She had quick success in the sport winning national titles in both triathlon and running. This success earned her a running scholarship at Arizona State University. But behind the scenes Cécile was struggling with an eating disorder and battling RED-S, and just one month into her collegiate running career she suffered a stress fracture that ultimately led to her being medically retired from running by the team doctors as ASU. Cécile speaks openly about her struggles with her eating disorder and RED-S, and how she has worked her way back to a more healthy view of fueling and training. She also tells us how leaving running allowed her to find her way into cycling and pursue the sport professionally. After a stint on some UCI road teams in Europe, Cécile moved back to the US and is now part of team CCB. This is her first year in the Life Time Grand Prix, and she is currently in 5th in the overall standings.Follow Cécile on Instagram @cecilejeuneFollow us on Instagram:@girlsgonegravel @feisty_media Girls Gone Gravel Website:https://www.girlsgonegravel.com/ Feisty Media Website:https://livefeisty.com/ Support our Partners:Previnex: Get 15% off your first order with code GIRLSGONEGRAVEL at https://www.previnex.com/ Feisty's Lift Heavy Guide: Get your guide to lifting heavy plus a 4-week training plan at https://www.womensperformance.com/lift-heavy

Johan Bruyneel and Spencer Martin break down Jonas Vingegaard's ride to take the overall win at the Vuelta a España ahead of João Almeida and Tom Pidcock. They discuss what this means for Vingegaard, what it says about Visma's incredible Grand Tour project, and where João Almeida and UAE can go from here. They also wonder what Pidcock's surprise ride means for his chances at the upcoming World Championships, why Vingegaard won't be present, and what the future of the Vuelta is after Sunday's final-stage debacle, where the race was shut down mid-stage due to protests and the UCI's forceful response.
