Research Paper

Hi Armando,

Thanks for sharing. It seems that you guys are using Skiba formulas for W’ (HIE) depletion and replenishment. These formulas have some questionable assumptions, namely:

  • W’ is constant over time.
  • Depletion and replenishment follow a simple exponential process.
  • Recovery conditions are assumed to be uniform.
  • They are highly dependent on the “precision” of thresholds.

Any coach or experienced athlete would notice that these assumptions do not reflect real-life experience. How are you improving this for a second version of the model?

Thanks
