An exert from the Cycling Science Symposium- Institute of Advanced Studies March 28th, 2019
This discussion focuses on the polarised training advances in cycling related science only, for the full symposium please here:

Polarised Training: Professor David Bishop
So for the twice a day, and with the desire to be low glycogen, would you suggest a high intensity short duration workout in the a.m. and then zone 1 in the p.m.
Also would fasted training in zone 1 give a similar result in adaptation?
Great presentation !
How much bicarbonate did you give the female cyclists prior to their training session?
7:37 He has a bad stutter!
Race horses have been given bicarbonate of soda " milkshakes" including water sugar and electrolytes by nasal tubes a few hours before races. However race stewards see this as cheating and the practice is banned if found out
I'd be curious to know how much bicarbonate was given to the female cyclists prior to their training session.
Where are the x axis labels?
that is so valuable great information. next time i do SIT; I take a teaspoon bicarbonate with a glas of water 5 minutes before the exercise and do it twice a day before eating. what they tested in a low carb situation might not be sufficient. protein also rises mTor. so, also no protein before the exercise. 45 min after the exercise i will eat my tuna
Interesting presentation, but I was underwhelmed by the evidence for the polarised approach. Except for saying that it being popularized by Seiler on the podcast circuit, the example of Kipchoges training did not at all seem to support the model, in fact it seems to be the opposite. There was just as much time spend in z2 tempo running as in z3, and it was only for the 7 weeks prior to the main race, which is more about peaking than building. It would be more interesting/convincing to see how much time throughout his entire year is spend in z2 and 3 rather than just what was shown.
Bicarbonate? That was doing the rounds in the 80s.
Hi:) and what about cold water inmersion and its relationship with artery development? Some coaches and authors defend that it may impair the arterial adaptations and capillarization.
How do mice know that they are getting placebo ?
So long and slow with interval work while drinking sodium bicarbonate done twice a day is the foundation. Add cold water and blood flow restriction down the road
For my personal experience..after using Sodium Bica. a long time….it could perhaps interesting to use a Study with Montmorency Tart Cherry Extract. I am 50 Years now..daily very active in Sport…and feel the results with the 50:1 Extract Caps in a short time..even as a lontimeuser of Beetroots,Citrullin….and other things.
endurance is the worst. intensity max effort is the way to go
Can the exercise be swim in the morning and cycle in the evening? Fasted easy swim then carb loaded for the cycling in the evening to increase mitochondrial function?
Can you add sodium bicarbonate to your sports drink that you use while on the ride?
statistically low quality…
Fantastic lecture! A treasure chest full of gemstones to vary your training 👍
Thank you!
Horse trainers used bicarb for years, they call it a "milkshake" ! It's illegal in racing…must work 🙂
interesting.
Excellent information! From the slide at 08:35 it seems that most training should either be easy or real sprints (SIT/Anaroebic). No need to bother with HIIT.
