Case Report
Background: Low areal bone mineral density (aBMD) is prevalent in elite road cyclists due to non-weight-bearing training loads and, at times, low energy availability (EA). Real-world, site-specific skeletal responses to targeted loading during rehabilitation remain insufficiently characterized. Case presentation: A 24-year-old WorldTour-level female road cyclist with low aBMD (Z-score ≤ -1.1) initiated a periodized resistance and impact loading p…
Case Report
In this condensed UE tetrathlon case, discipline-specific feeding opportunities, rather than generic hourly targets, largely determined achievable CHO delivery, and glycaemic excursions occurred only during the terminal running stage. This integrated case provides a reference observation to inform logistics-aware fueling plans and to motivate prospective studies evaluating whether real-time CGM with predefined decision rules improves late-stage f…
An elite athlete’s storying of injuries and non-qualification for an Olympic Games
In this article, we present and examine the case of one elite athlete – 28-year old Mark (pseudonym), who during a 10-month lead-up to the 2016 Rio OG qualification deadline, aimed to achieve his NGB/NOC's qualification standards, but sustained several injuries and was forced to give up his qualification attempt. Adopting a socio-narratological framework, we aim to understand how Mark storied the qualification period; how socio-cultural, organisa…
Researching health behaviour in 'real time
In this article, we share our experience of navigating qualitative longitudinal research with a 'hard to recruit' population. To detail design conception, methodological challenges and insights, we draw on the case of a 1-year-long study on health behaviour in Olympic hopefuls. In order to accompany 12 athletes who aimed to qualify for either an Olympic Games (n = 10) or a World Championship (n = 2), we developed and implemented a career backgrou…
