All started with a conversation in the gym and @ADopfer said 'I wonder what the German hour record is?'
Then a coffee and aero chat with @adwalker71 a week later and the project began.
An incredible team to work with - looking forward to next Wednesday!
Supported by our world-class sport ecosystem, @lboroalumni Axel Dopfer will attempt Jens Voigt’s German hour record in Grenchen 🚴
This year-long project with @lboroeng @lborossehs @lborosport @SSEHub and @Vorteqsports has already delivered promising results

Great to have your expertise down at the tunnel @adwalker71. Looking forward to an exciting project ahead!
A great evening helping @Lboro_Cycling 's Axel Dopfer (@ADopfer) get more areo at @SSEHub. Thanks Jo Simpson (@Josimps24342584) for helping make this happen. @LboroSport @LboroEng @PaddyTHarrison @Dr_DaveN @LboroPR
Warm session for the guys before individual pursuits in Newport on Tuesday night - trialing a few cooling strategies for the warm up.
All things hill climbing this afternoon with @Lboro_Cycling. Workshop on priming warm ups, acute nutrition strategies, and pacing plans followed by a recon to test the legs on the climb!
Enjoyed co-chairing the @LboroSSEHS Sport Performance Theme Doctoral Conference with @annamaymartin this afternoon. Great range of presentations 👇

📝ACCEPTED @IJSPPjournal🚨
Differences in MMP between cycling performance levels and rider types are dependent on torque rather than cadence, which might support the role of torque development on performance (n=177).

Our small contribution to the ongoing debates about Critical Power.

Following on from my presentation @ScienceCycling here is the full paper in @EurJSportSci investigating power-cadence and torque-cadence relationships derived from standard 1 Hz data.
Some exciting projects are in the pipeline.

⚡️Applications to join our ambitious team are now open for the 2023 season! ⚡️
Our race calendar is growing, and our unique, world-class backroom offer provides un-rivalled coaching and performance support to ensure riders reach their full potential.
Riding for two 2 hours at tempo (heavy domain) results in:
⬇️ 10% critical power
⬇️ 20% W’
Consuming carbohydrate at 60 g per hour preserves critical power (but doesn’t rescue W’).

Impressed by the @UnoXteam 'hub' presented at @ScienceCycling conference last week.
Whilst it might have some immediate benefits, I think the greatest advantage might come 2-3 years down the line when they have a huge database to inform decision making.
Awesome week in Copenhagen for the #NEXSGrandDepart symposium, @ScienceCycling conference, and start of the #TDF2022!
