Absolutely brutal. Very rare insight in to the limits of human performance - excellent work @MehdiKordi @NUSportEx
The Hour Record in cycling is as simple and iconic as it is brutal: ride as far as possible in one hour. Alone. No place to hide. Esp if you blow up. Our case-study gives a unique insight to the difference when it's going well and not (task-failure!) researchgate.net/publication…

Refections. A session with an evidence base, balance, common sense and a slash of Scandinavian (appropriate) humour. This room was rammed and illustrates the interest and importance of the challenges in balancing inclusion with fairness. Great job Tommy 👏🏽
Hello #ACSM24 welcome to the session on trans athletes in sports: sex differences, inclusion and fairness at 9.30 today! With @DrMJoyner @SKHunterPhD

The #IOC statement on "fairness, inclusion & nondiscrimination" based on gender identity and sex is spot on—if you ignore the last 200 years of scientific knowledge on the biological basis of performance. 🔓onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… @Scienceofsport @TLexercise @KerryMcGawley

This is gold. Indicative of our strange world seeking to be popular. The fact I’m reposting this is not lost on me! My favourite bit is “I know what my followers want to see”… he responds “your followers? Are you Jesus now, are ya?” 🤣🤣

You need to read this compelling argument. An important evidence-based piece to challenge the IOC framework to ensure fairness for female sport participation.
Breaking news - 26 academics have come together to make a strong case that the IOC's framework for fairness, inclusion and non-discrimination on the basis of gender identity and sex variations does not protect fairness for female athletes. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
