Since its first published edition more than 30 years ago, the BASES (British Association of Sport and Exercise Sciences) Physiological Testing Guidelines have represented the leading knowledge base of current testing methodology for sport and exercise scientists. Sport and exercise physiologists conduct physiological assessments that have proven validity and reliability, both in laboratory and sport-specific contexts. A wide variety of test protocols have been developed, adapted and refined to support athletes of all abilities reach their full potential. This book is a comprehensive guide to these protocols and to the key issues relating to physiological testing. With contributions from leading specialist sport physiologists and covering a wide range of mainstream sports in terms of ethical, practical and methodological issues, this volume represents an essential resource for sport-specific exercise testing in both research and applied settings. This new edition draws on the authors’ experience of supporting athletes from many sports through several Olympic cycles to achieve world leading performances. While drawing on previous editions, it is presented in a revised format matching the sport groupings used in elite sport support within the UK sport institutes. Building on the underpinning general procedures, these specific chapters are supported by appropriate up-to-date case studies in the supporting web resources.

The Routledge Handbook of Cycling Science brings together internationally recognised experts to showcase the growing body of both experimental and applied knowledge in cycling science, explaining how it can be used to improve and optimise performance at all levels.With 43 chapters spanning race demands, physiology, training methods, nutrition, equipment, tactics, performance analysis, environmental factors, and health, this is the most comprehensive reference work in cycling science to date. The handbook addresses the full spectrum of cyclists, from elite road and track riders to masters, youth, female, and para-cyclists, and covers disciplines from sprint track and BMX to endurance road racing, mountain biking, ultra-endurance and gravel events.Written by leading sport scientists and coaching academics and supported by the most recent peer-reviewed evidence, the chapters are designed to translate scientific knowledge into practical application for sport scientists, coaches, and athletes alike. The book does not shy away from areas of genuine scientific debate, topics such as training intensity distribution, relative energy deficiency in sport, and the integration of artificial intelligence in coaching are examined critically, with contributors acknowledging where current evidence is equivocal, consensus remains elusive, and further research is needed. Importantly, every chapter concludes with a dedicated future research section, making explicit the gaps in current knowledge and setting an agenda for the field.The Routledge Handbook of Cycling Science is essential reading for sport scientists, students, coaches, and athletes in competitive cycling and related endurance sports.
