The study is helping to develop a new method to determine muscle glycogen levels using a novel MRI technique. The new MRI technique will be compared to muscle biopsy samples for validation. Participants that qualify for the study will receive a consultation with a sports dietitian for a nutritional analysis and eating plan.

I just LOVE it that completing an Argus is still seen as the gold standard for qualification as a standard. wonder if the short one counts Swany05, Dieter ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°), fanievb and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gr3mlin131 Posted October 28, 2019 Share What about a 947? Or is this only for Cape Town people? Also, muscle biopsy sounds a lot like getting cut... piotter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devocean Posted October 28, 2019 Share I once signed up for a study advertised on bikehub. It entailed four 70km TT done on an indoor trainer. Each TT had two 7km climbs. 70km indoors felt like a lifetime. After the first one, I was seriously questioning my life choices, and when that fourth one was done, it felt like getting out of jail MDJ, aquaratza, nonky and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
