WHAT IS UNEXPLAINED UNDERPERFORMANCE SYNDROME IN ENDURANCE ATHLETES?

Discover the world of sports management through the AISTS Sports Medicine podcast, featuring interviews with leading experts, professionals and academics.

In this month’s AISTS Sports Medicine podcast Joana Cal and Michael Broadley discuss Unexplained Underperformance Syndrome (UPS) in endurance athletes.  Namely, what is it and why does it occur? To do this, they kick off with a short role-play to highlight symptoms of UPS before delivering more in-depth details on both the physiological manifestations and psychological aspects. From there, you can learn of how UPS differs from other forms of fatigue associated with endurance sport and how best to manage/heal from UPS.

You can now listen and download all the AISTS Sports Medicine podcast on the Apple ITunes store or directly from your Apple Podcast app.  Just search for AISTS and get up to date with lots of different sports medicine topics, delivered by our MAS participants. 

The AISTS Sports Medicine podcast series was created by AISTS Head of Sports Medicine, Dr Boris Gojanovic (@DrSportSante) and are entirely scripted, recorded and produced by participants of the AISTS MAS in Sport Administration programme.
