Merlini, M., Staiano, W., Angius, L., Romagnoli, M., Schena, F., Dickinson, J., Marcora, S. “…No effect of salmeterol was observed on fresh sprint performance and myoelectric activity. Blood lactate concentration and RPE rose similarly in both conditions (p < 0.001), while heart rate was higher with salmeterol during the first 20 min (p = 0.004). …”

MacDougall, K. B., Aboodarda, S. J., Wickenberg, A. B., Macintosh, B. R. “…Background Prior high-intensity exercise (priming) has been shown to accelerate the oxygen uptake (VO2) kinetics, as well as improve exercise tolerance during subsequent high-intensity exercise, yet the mechanisms underpinning the performance changes are unclear. In theory, a reduced reliance on non-oxidative energy input afforded by the faster VO2 response may improve subsequent performance by delaying muscle fatigue; however, this effect has yet to be conclusively shown. …”

Pirlot, T., Baron, B., Scholler, V., Grappe, F., Pageaux, B., Groslambert, A. “…Methods: Twenty-four male cyclists (12 professionals and 12 national level) matched for VO2max (75.2 [5.9] vs 74.3 [7.1] mL·min-1·kg-1) performed a 60-minute treadmill cycling test simulating race-end conditions. …”

Barsumyan, A., Soost, C., Shyla, R., Graw, J. A., Bliemel, C., Burchard, R. “…Conclusion We showed that durability is a parameter independent of traditional physiological measures of cycling performance. Looking at durability then working backwards can help identify what coaches need to work on in so many areas that are important to all aspects of racing in cycling sport.…”

Demay, R. S., Kerhervé, H. A. “…Methods Eighteen trained cyclists and triathletes (24.4±2.6 years; 70.4±8.5 kg; 66.5 ± 9.5 ml min kg-1 VO2max) performed two 3-h cycling sessions, either continuously (CON) or interspersed (INT) with an all-out effort. …”

Arc-Chagnaud, C., Dugué, B., Pla, R., Bouzigon, R., Bosquet, L., D-Day Consortium, Dupuy, O. “…Each week (5 days and 5 nights) represented one of the two experimental conditions: partial body cryostimulation exposures (CRYO) or control sessions (CONT). …”

Tuono, A. T., Pinheiro, A. M., Gomes, A. C., Padovani, C. R., Borin, J. P. “…It is hypothesized that this work may benefit coaches and duathletes from the characterization of the modality carried out through the analysis of long-term competitive performance that highlights the relevance of some particularities of the sprint duathlon, mainly regarding the importance of the calendar, regulations and rules of the competition, in addition to the influence of geographic and climatic conditions on the final performance of the athlete. …”

Horvath, M., Andersson, E. P. “…Introduction: Power profiling is widely used in cycling performance analysis, but both absolute and mass-normalized power outputs have limitations as performance indicators, as they neglect external factors such as terrain, wind, aerodynamic drag, and pacing strategy. …”

Röhrs, G., Keller, S., Wahl, P. “…Purpose: This study aimed to investigate oxygen/energy cost (OC/EC) of running and substrate utilization before and after strenuous cycling in well-trained junior triathletes and the relevance of changes in these variables for fatigued running performance. …”

Térol, S., Limousin, L., Nival, Y., Moly, A., Micheletti, Q., Acco, P., Soto-Romero, G., Costes, A. “…These findings establish the mannequin as a reliable tool for controlled aerodynamic analysis, with applications in both scientific research and performance optimization in competitive cycling.…”

Barsumyan, A., Soost, C., Burchard, R. “…The aim of this study was to quantify durability in well-trained age-group cycling athletes using home-based test measures, identify durability as an important predictor of endurance performance, and provide practical recommendations for improving durability through training. …”

Dowd, T., Cavanaugh, P., Mansson, J.-A. “…This model is used for characterizing cycling drivetrain efficiency across varying conditions—a critical factor in optimizing the performance of bicycles in competitive, recreational, and transportation contexts. …”

Tarmast, D, Ghosh, A. “…Each trial involved 90 minutes of steady-state cycling on an ergometer at 60% VO2max, followed by a 20-km exhaustive cycling time-trial performance. …”

Ramosa, J. A. P., Duckera, K. J., Riddella, H., Girardb, O., Landersb, G., Bradea, C. J. “…Objective To examine the effect of pre-cooling (PreC) on cycling time-trial (CTT) performance in heat, before and after heat acclimation (HA). …”

Reynolds, K, Funnell, M, Collins, A, Mears, S, Pugh, J, James, L. “…Conclusions These data demonstrate that the ability to use glucose provided in drinks was impaired during prolonged cycling in WARM. WARM ambient conditions impaired laboratory-based cycling performance, even with facing airflow approximating outdoor conditions, likely via impairments of thermoregulatory, cardiovascular, and metabolic function.…”

Vieira-Cavalcante, V., Schamne, J. C., Gonçalves, F., Bertuzzi, R., Pierucci, A. P. T. R., Boari, D., Lima-Silva, A. E., Silva, R. G. “…The aim of the present study was to test the effects of different doses of anhydrous theacrine (3 and 6 mg·kg-1 of body mass) on 4 km cycling time trial performance. Nineteen (11 men and 8 women) cyclists (30.8 ± 10.0 years, 71.7 ± 11.8 kg, 170.1 ± 9.0 cm, and 17.0 ± 6.2% of body fat) completed three 4 km cycling time trials after ingesting either placebo, or 3 or 6 mg·kg-1 of body mass of theacrine. …”
