Working Paper
SWINTON, P., STEPHENS HEMINGWAY, B., RASCHE, C., PFEIFFER, M. and OGOREK, B. 2021. Traditional and contemporary approaches to mathematical fitness-fatigue models in exercise science: a practical guide with resources. Part II. SportRxiv [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.31236/osf.io/5qgc2

The standard fitness-fatigue model (FFM) is known to include several limitations described by the linearity assumption, the independence assumption and the deterministic assumption. These limitations ensure that the modelled response to chronic train...

Introduction: Placebos are used as a control treatment that is meant to be indistinguishable from the active intervention. However, where substantive placebo effects may occur, studies that do not include a non-placebo control arm may underestimate t...
