A recent paper produced a list of the 100 most influential sports science papers of the last 100 years. Gareth and Ross choose a handful of them, discussing what they found, what their authors didn't know at the time (and got wrong), and what it means today. We discover that the arc of sports science knowledge runs through all these studies, connecting people from AV Hill to Noakes, and themes including oxygen debt, lactate, altitude, pacing strategies, fatigue, and even the 2-hour marathon !</p><p><br></p><p><strong><u>Show notes</u></strong></p><p><br></p><p><a href=\"https://www.patreon.com/thescienceofsport\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Become a Patron here</strong></a><strong>,</strong> and then <a href=\"https://scienceofsportpodcast.discourse.group/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">join the discussion on on Discourse Community</a></p><p><br></p><ul><li><a href=\"https://journals.humankinetics.com/view/journals/ijspp/aop/article-10.1123-ijspp.2023-0462/article-10.1123-ijspp.2023-0462.xml\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Standing on the Shoulders of Giants</a>: The paper that inspired the episode, a collection of 100 influential sports science articles</li><li>The <a href=\"https://academic.oup.com/qjmed/article-abstract/os-16/62/135/1594478?redirectedFrom=fulltext&amp;login=false\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">AV Hill Paper on muscular exertion, oxygen and 'lactic acid'</a>.
