Downhill Running And Field Studies Of Ultra Runners With Gianluca Vernillo, PhD
Gianluca Vernillo, PhD is one of the world's leading scientists studying mountain ultra trail runners. Today he brings a vast amount of science and practical insight from his years of studying the uphill, downhill, and other physiologic features of extreme endurance running in the world's toughest mountain courses.
Here are some of the papers we mentioned on the episode:
An Extreme Mountain Ultra-Marathon Decreases the Cost of Uphill Walking and Running
Effects of different uphill interval-training programs on running economy and performance
Biomechanics and Physiology of Uphill and Downhill Running
