Hypoxic training in elite athletes – 29 April
You are cordially invited to our upcoming sports science lecture on 29 April at 17:30 in the amphitheatre of “d’Coque”. The event is free to attend and registration is not required.
🚴‍♂️ Elevate Your Understanding of Hypoxic Training in Elite Athletes! 🏔️
Join us for an exclusive sports science lecture with Daniele Cardinale, PhD, a leading expert in hypoxic training and elite athletic performance!
Daniele currently serves as Performance Development Officer at the Performance Laboratory of the Swedish Sports Confederation, within the Department of Elite Sport Support. Additionally, he holds affiliations as a researcher at The Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences (GIH) in Stockholm.
After obtaining a bachelor’s degree from the University of Rome “Foro Italico” and a Master’s degree in Sport Science from Tor Vergata University of Rome, Daniele relocated to Stockholm. Initially, he worked as a Strength and Conditioning coach in football, subsequently transitioning to a role as a physiologist within the Swedish Elite sport system. In this role, he conducted physiological and biomechanical tests, provided Strength and Conditioning support, and educated Swedish national coaches and athletes. A few years later, he earned a PhD in Exercise Physiology from The Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences (GIH), focusing on various aspects of skeletal muscle mitochondrial function. Specifically, Daniele has delved into the roles of mitochondrial excess capacity and mitochondrial oxygen affinity in relation to cycling performance, oxygen uptake, and adaptation to exercise training. Passionate about innovation and entrepreneurship, he has also worked in sport and health innovation by supporting researchers and students at The Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences.
In recent years, Daniele’s research has focused on examining the physiological and performance effects of a novel approach to induce hypoxic stimuli in well-trained and elite cyclists.
Daniele will share groundbreaking insights into how oxygen availability and hypoxic stimuli impact performance in high-level athletes, offering valuable knowledge for coaches, athletes, and sports science enthusiasts alike.
With a wealth of experience spanning strength & conditioning, exercise physiology, and sports innovation, Dr Cardinale’s expertise bridges the gap between research and real-world application.
The roundtable will be held in English and is open to the general public. The discussion will last approximately 45 minutes, followed by a 15-minute Q&A session. We hope to see you there!
