The Physiology of Peak Performance with Olympian & PhD Shalaya Kipp

Currently Post Doc Mayo Clinic with Michael Joyner

PhD - University of British Columbia, Masters & Undergrad at CU Boulder. 2012 Olympian in steeplechase. Worked on the 4% study in conjunction with the breaking 2 project. Now works with Mike Joyner who made a famous prediction of when 2 hours would be broken in the marathon (predicts 1:57:48). 

Curvilinear relation between speed and metabolics and metabolic cost across range of speeds

Viewpoint on physiology of fast marathon RE should be measured near lactate threshold. 1% incline has limits b/c resistance not linear w/ speed. Treadmill inconsistencies

Respiratory muscles during exercise 

Talk about running power mechanical vs. metabolic power and connect how metabolic power only takes into account aerobic

Super spikes – why is it hard to measure their impact on performance. What take aways do you have for selecting spikes. 

Sports bra restriction on respiratory muscles 

Impact of steroids on athlete performance
