    19 AUG

    IM Frankfurt Race Review. Dr Peter Sterling.

    We review the racing from the IRONMAN Frankfurt European Championships and Supertri Boston at the weekend. Peter Sterling PhD is an American anatomist, physiologist, neuroscientist and Professor of Neuroscience at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine. He is the author of What Is Health? Allostasis and the Evolution of Human Design (2020), and with Simon Laughlin, is an author of Principles of Neural Design. In this podcast episode we discuss the concept of allostasis and its implications on health. Dr Sterling shares his journey from studying homeostasis in the 1970s to coining the term allostasis, highlighting how stress and anticipatory regulation affect the body's physiological processes. We look at the impact of social and psychological stressors on overall health, the role of predictive regulation and the limitations of current healthcare systems, especially in the context of the United States. Dr Sterling emphasises the need for a balanced approach to managing stress and maintaining health, pointing out the dangers of polypharmacy and the importance of societal well-being.

  5. MTR Paris Olympics. Tomas Rodriguez. Sex Testing at the Olympics.

    10 AUG

    MTR Paris Olympics. Tomas Rodriguez. Sex Testing at the Olympics.

    We review the racing from the MTR at the Paris Olympics and discuss Hayden Wilde’s crash, Taylor Knibb’s result, plus are we seeing a shift away from ‘Gold Meaning Everything?’. Tomas Rodriguez made a name for himself by beating IRONMAN World Champion Patrick Lange at IRONMAN Texas last April. Since then, he’s been hit with an anti-doping rule violation after testing positive for the banned substance Clomiphene. Tomas has released a statement blaming contaminated food. Could he be telling the truth? In sport the ability to assess who is eligible for a male or female category is fundamental to making that category work. We discuss sex testing at the Olympics and share a segment from Ross Tucker’s podcast ‘The Science of Sport’ explaining why he thinks the IOC are confused.  (0:00:00) – Water quality in the Seine (0:03:22) – We review the MTR at the Olympics (0:19:22) – The sanctioning of Thomas Rodriguez (0:36.10) – Sex testing at the Olympics (0:38:18) – Professor Ross Tucker Science of Sport podcast LINKS: The Science of Sport Podcast with Professor Ross Tucker – ‘Why Sex Test an Athlete’ at https://shows.acast.com/realscienceofsport/episodes/bonus-episode-why-test-the-sex-of-an-athlete-the-ioc-seem-co Follow Tomas Rodriguez on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/tomasrodher/
