Some of the top sports physiologists in the world, led by Dr Louis Burke just wrote the UCI’s position on supplements. Lead author Jamie Whitfield joins us to discuss their recommendations.
We detail the integral role that water and sodium play in our physiological processes, and how understanding sweat rate and composition can improve performance, recovery, and health.

There’s conflicting and inconclusive evidence on how to properly treat IT band syndrome. We break down some of these common treatments so you can get back to your sport better than before.
