Personal profile
Research Interests
My research interests are recovery, monitoring markers of recovery (e.g. blood, saliva, subjective and objective markers, sleep variables), exploring associations between training load (subjective or objective), markers of recovery, injury, and illness, with the aim to optimising performance.
