Improvement of Oxygen-Uptake Kinetics and Cycling Performance With Combined Prior Exercise and Fast Start

Kirsty Brock, Prokopios Antonellis, Matthew I. Black, Fred J. DiMenna, Anni Vanhatalo, Andrew M. Jones, and Stephen J. Bailey

speed V ˙ O 2 kinetics and improve exercise performance. 6 – 19 We recently showed that, compared with an unprimed, self-paced control trial, an all-out pacing strategy does not improve 1-km cycling performance more than priming alone 20 despite the fact that this pacing strategy is considered

Effects of Ketone Monoester and Bicarbonate Co-Ingestion on Cycling Performance in WorldTour Cyclists

Domingo Jesús Ramos-Campo, Francisco Javier López-Román, Silvia Pérez-Piñero, Raquel Ortolano, María Salud Abellán-Ruiz, Enrique Molina Pérez de los Cobos, Antonio Jesús Luque-Rubia, Dag Van Elslande, and Vicente Ávila-Gandía

, Wyns, et al., 2021 ) found that the co-ingestion of 65 g of ketone monoester (KE) and 300 mg/kg of NaHCO 3 maintained the acid-base balance, thus avoiding ketoacidosis and increasing cycling performance. However, the same research group has also published a study showing exogenous ketosis (50 g of KE

Effect of Acetaminophen on Endurance Cycling Performance in Trained Triathletes in Hot and Humid Conditions

Gyan A. Wijekulasuriya, Vernon G. Coffey, Luke Badham, Fergus O’Connor, Avish P. Sharma, and Gregory R. Cox

the effect of ACT ingestion on cycling time-trial (TT) performance in endurance-trained athletes in hot and humid environmental conditions. We hypothesized that core (gastrointestinal) temperature, T sk , and thermal sensation would be reduced by ACT and enhance endurance cycling performance in a

Ambient Temperature and Field-Based Cycling Performance: Insights From Male and Female Professional Cyclists

Pedro L. Valenzuela, Manuel Mateo-March, Mikel Zabala, Xabier Muriel, Alejandro Lucia, David Barranco-Gil, and Jesús G. Pallarés

Cycling performance is conditioned by a complex interplay between several variables such as cyclists’ fitness levels, race characteristics, or team tactics, among others. 1 Chief among these variables is the cyclists’ ability to produce high power output (PO) values, although this individual

The Effect of Nitrate Supplementation on Cycling Performance in the Heat in Well-Trained Cyclists

Joseph A. McQuillan, Julia R. Casadio, Deborah K. Dulson, Paul B. Laursen, and Andrew E. Kilding

ergogenic potential of NO 3 − in the heat. Conclusions This is the first investigation to report on the thermoregulatory, perceptual, and ergogenic effects of NO 3 − supplementation on maximal-intensity cycling performance in a hot environment in well-trained athletes. Relative to placebo, daily NO 3
