Rylands, L. P., Canham, D. C., Hardwicke, J., Hurst, H. T. “…The study also aimed to ascertain if the crash had any long-term effects on the rider's quality of life (QOL). Method The study used two established questionnaires to establish rider perspectives. …”

Dadelo, S., Nekriošius, R., Dadeliene, R. “…Life…”

van Dijk, J. “…Integrating these strategies will yield a framework aimed at preventing and addressing bone health issues among elite cyclists, with the dual benefit of not only extending their time in competition but also securing their bone health for life beyond their professional career.…”

Rotllan, C., Corbi, F., Viscor, G. “…INTRODUCTION: In professional road cyclists, most overload injuries affect the lower limbs and are mostly represented by contractures or muscle shortening, characterised by a variation of muscular tone, stiffness, and elasticity. This real-life study aimed to assess specific mechanical parameters in top-class female cyclists who participated in 3 races a week. …”

Eken, M. M., Arnold, S. L., Thijssen, J., van der Schaaf, M., Engelbrecht, L., Lamberts, R. P. “…Results The athlete reported an increase in symptoms of experienced stress after the stage race on the Daily Analysis of Life Demands of Athletes questionnaire. Both biceps femoris and tibialis anterior muscles showed a reduction in normalized amplitude after the stage race. …”

Martins Ratamero, E. “…Using an agent-based approach, it aims to generate the very complex behaviour observed in real-life competitive cycling from a collective of agents with very simple rules. …”

André, C., Lemaître, C., Voiry, M. “…This allows the biomechanical and aerodynamic properties of a bike setting to be assessed without having to test it in real life. We also perform an experimental validation of the method by comparing measured and simulated values of different indicators: the frontal area, the maximum knee flexion, the maximum knee extension, the hip angle closed and the hip angle open.…”

Scholler, V., Groslambert, A., Grappe, F. “…Moreover, in everyday life sitting situations, other biomechanical sitting parameters such as shear forces influence the sitting comfort. …”

Hashem boroojerdi, M., Rahimi, A., Roostayi, M. M., Talebian Moghaddam, S., Yousefi, M., Norouzi, M., Akbarzadeh Baghban, A. “…The purpose of this study was to investigate FRP occurrence in elite cyclists that prolonged flexion posture is an integral part of their professional life. Their muscles` contraction pattern during forward bending was also compared. …”

Solaro, N., Pagani, M., Spataro, A., Lucini, D. “…Conclusion: This MEFA application permits a more straightforward representation of the complexity characterizing ANS modulation during exercise, simplifying the interpretation of the HRV-derived indices and facilitating the possible real-life use of this non-invasive methodology.…”

Dunst, A. K., Manunzio, C., Feldmann, A., Hesse, C. “…A high vLamax results in a reduction, a high PRmax in an increase of the desaturation rate. The half-life of SmO2 desaturation indicates the end of the fatigue-free state.…”

Chamberlain, M., Miller, J., Dowd, T., Rhim, J. S., Heflin, D., Akturk, I., Coffing, J., Fassnacht, M., Mansson, J.-A. “…The adjustable apparatus was used to test the crank arms in multiple loading cases realistic to those experienced during a typical service life, in addition to testing the load case defined by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). …”

Caen, K., Ghijs, M., Boone, J. “…One of the main reasons for its popularity lays in the fact that intermittent exercise strongly relates to many real-life sports situations in which high-intensity efforts (i.e., above CP) are alternated with low-intensity recovery intervals (i.e., below CP). …”

Sanders, D., Spindler, D. J., Stanley, J. “…Physiological (eg, high training loads, hypoxic stimuli) and psychological stressors (ie, significant life events) were clearly reflected in morning HR and HR-variability responses. …”

Hilkens, L., Knuiman, P., Heijboer, M., Kempers, R., Jeukendrup, A. E., van Loon, L. J. C., van Dijk, J. W. “…This raises the question whether these ostensibly healthy athletes have a higher acute bone fracture risk and a higher risk of osteoporosis and associated comorbidities later later in life. Although treatment of low BMD seems warranted in elite cyclists, the benefits of treatment for health and performance in this population remain to be established. …”

Roete, A. J., Elferink-Gemser, M. T., Otter, R. T. A., Stoter, I. K., Lamberts, R. P. “…Changes in power output (PO), heart rate (HR; [sub]maximal and HR recovery), rating of perceived exertion, and scores in the Daily Analysis of Life Demands for Athletes (DALDA) and/or Profile of Mood States (POMS) were shown to be able to reflect functional overreaching, whereas changes in maximal oxygen uptake and HR-variability parameters were not. …”

Dyer, B. “…This suggests that despite the physiological decline that will eventually reduce a riders competitiveness, this case study demonstrated that it is feasible to continue the pursuit of personal records until relatively late in life.…”

Wigle, C. “…Not to mention, boxing creates life skills like individual awareness in a team environment, taking direction in a short amount of time in a hostile situation, getting and giving feedback in a neutral, com-petitive environment. …”

Richard, N. A., Koehle, M. S. “…Laboratory studies have precision but lack "real-life feel" whereas field-based studies are ecologically valid but are prone to external ariants; track cycling nicely bridges this gap. …”

Hodson-Tole, E. F., Blake, O. M., Ollie, M., Wakeling, J. M. “…Changes in the variability of individual muscle excitations (EMG) and multimuscle coordination, quantified by entropic half-life (EnHL), can reflect the number of solutions available at each system level. …”
