I am a researcher in exercise physiology, university instructor, and endurance coach.
Science
As a scientist, my research has focused on performance and fatigue during endurance exercise. The main model that I have used is trail running, due to the extremely long distances that are common in ultra-trail running races, which allow us to test the effects of extreme fatigue on human physiology. I have also done research using cycling as a model to assess the effects of fatigue induced by prolonged exercise.
Some topics I have explored in my research are:
Teaching
I have been teaching at the undergraduate and graduate level since 2017, in 3 different universities in France and Canada. The topics I teach on include:
Coaching
During my education as a scientist I have always wanted to keep a hand on the practical side of endurance exercise. That is why I have been coaching endurance athletes since 2013. I have coached both groups in club settings, as well as individuals, helping them improve their performance and achieve their endurance goals.
