Competitive mountain bike racing: a study of rider hand-arm vibration exposure (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ingram-Sills, L., Taylor, M., Malone, E., Kirkwood, L., & Florida-James, G. (2019, September). Competitive mountain bike racing: a study of rider hand-arm vibration exposure. Presented at 54th UK Conference on Human Responses to Vibration, Edinburgh, Scotland

Limited information is available regarding the hand-arm vibration (HAV) exposure for professional off-road cyclists. Previous research has suggested that commuting and recreational cyclists are at risk of exceeding exposure limit values (ELV) in a si...

Physiological characteristics and performance in elite enduro mountain biking (2017)
Journal Article
Kirkwood, L., Ingram, L., Cunningham, J., Malone, E., & Florida-James, G. (2017). Physiological characteristics and performance in elite enduro mountain biking. Journal of Science and Cycling, 6(2), 13-21. https://doi.org/10.28985/171231.jsc.09

Enduro mountain bike racing is composed of several timed predominantly downhill race stages linked by time restricted, non-competitive transition stages. This study aimed to 1) detail and compare the laboratory assessed physiological characteristics... Read More about Physiological characteristics and performance in elite enduro mountain biking.

Lower Resting and Exercise-Induced Circulating Angiogenic Progenitors and Angiogenic T-Cells in Older Men (2017)
Journal Article
Ross, M. D., Malone, E. M., Simpson, R., Cranston, I., Ingram, L., Wright, G. P., Chambers, G., & Florida-James, G. D. (2018). Lower Resting and Exercise-Induced Circulating Angiogenic Progenitors and Angiogenic T-Cells in Older Men. American journal of physiology. Heart and circulatory physiology, 314(3), 392-402. https://doi.org/10.1152/ajpheart.00592.2017

Ageing is associated with a dysfunctional endothelial phenotype, as well as reduced angiogenic capabilities. Exercise exerts beneficial effects on the cardiovascular system, possibly by increasing/maintaining the number and/or function of circulating...

Acute sleep disruption: does it limit performance but heighten immunity? (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ingram-Sills, L., Simpson, R., Malone, E., & Florida-James, G. (2016, July). Acute sleep disruption: does it limit performance but heighten immunity?. Presented at 3rd World Congress of Cycling Science, Caen, France

Introduction: Alterations to sleep patterns in athletes are commonly reported prior to competition and during travel to events (Juliff et al., 2015; Erlacher et al., 2011). When sleep is completely deprived decrements in performance and increased per... Read More about Acute sleep disruption: does it limit performance but heighten immunity?.
