Mr Jay Shaffer - USA - Road Running Competitor
Comments - Great website! Thank you! I use your website to calculate my VO2 max from several different data sets and mirabile dictu; they all come out the same. I have a Polar unit that does the calculation based on heart rate variability -- it matches as well. Your scholarship and effort in assembling, maintaining and updating the website is a gift to everyone concerned with achieving and maintaining fitness worldwide. You have the foresight and wit to preserve the historical perspective showing the changes that new information and better measures reflect. I wish you continued success and all the best.
Ms M. Fincer - England - Editor & Writer
Comments - I am Marie from TrustMyPaper.com where I work as an Editor and Writer. My recent piece of writing is called "The Unrivalled Guide to Developing Effective Communication Skills", and I even created a simple quiz. While making my 8000+ word blog post, I found helpful information in your "Communication Skills" article. Based on it, I extended my guide with some exciting thoughts inspired by your article! I wanted to say thanks and give you a heads up, as it might be worth mentioning in your post or on your social network. Keep up the excellent work!
Mr Chris Tidwell - USA - Cycling Competitor
Comments - Thank you very much for providing such excellent and concise information. I am a physician and have rededicated myself to fitness. You have provided a wealth of information on getting fit and achieving reasonable and sustainable goals properly. Well done again, and many thanks.
Mrs George, Australia, Road running Competitor
Comments - Absolutely awesome information. Better than Runner's World advice. The only thing is I couldn't share it on Facebook. No button to link/post it. Maybe you could have a button that allows posting to Facebook to share your brilliant content.
Mr Sayuti Syahara - Indonesia - Martial Arts Official
Comments - Your sports coach is very helpful for me to understand more about the science of sport. It is also a lot of information for athletes and coaches and my sports students. If you don't mind, I'd like to know more about setting up a training program for Karate. Thanks again for your information.
Mr Rob Keyes - United Kingdom - Martial Arts Competitor
Comments - My background is in Crossfit and Taekwondo and I have been searching (for some time now) for a site to understand the correlation between how the heart works and how to improve/train better.
This is a fabulous website and the only one I have found that clarifies the improvement of sports performance. Well done, and thank you!
Mr Turchyn - Canada - Competitor
Comments - I wanted to compliment you on your succinct article about types of muscle tissue - because of its' concrete realization of the practice to an athlete - the science I can understand with summaries in terms of my workout. Beautiful.
Miss Michelle Smith - United Kingdom - Coach & Competitor
Comments - I love your website. It has got me through my degree! Keep up the great work!
Dr Shivaji Suryawanshi - India - Coach
Comments - This Sports Coach website is very well designed and useful for coaches, researchers, and sports teachers to collect their athlete's data according to conducted tests and easy to analyse them in a given chart on your webpage. It gets easy to calculate the data on presented tables and converter of results regarding the test. It is a helpful site for researchers in the sports field. I highly appreciate the Coach website.
Mr Rob McGuire - USA - Competitor
Comments - Your explanation and recommendations on fixing Piriformis Syndrome are dead on. Very well done. Thank you. Rob McGuire
Mr Kieran Moroney - United Kingdom - Rugby Competitor
Comments - I am learning about VO2max/endurance etc., ready to go to university. I researched and kept coming up with your website, which is brilliant and has helped me get ahead of Uni's others. I have learnt lots of technical stuff. However, no matter what research I do, I cannot find anyone who can explain what some scores stand for or mean. Details of scores such as - distance covered were 9.6% (N = 29) and (1059 ± 35 vs 771 ± 26 m). It would be great on one of your pages. You could explain what these results mean so that complete novices can also understand what these results mean, especially the plus-minus symbol.
Mr Kishan - India - Ultra distance - Competitor
Comments - I went through this website and must say that it is the most comprehensive resource I have come across. I am a strong advocate of movement among children and looking to start a program with a few young kids here in New Delhi, India (including my 13-month-old son). The information on this site is helpful.
Mr Michael Thorne - United Kingdom - Triathlon Coach & Competitor
Comments - Brian, I think this website is fantastic. The range of content across many sports in one place, l am not sure anyone else is doing it.
Mr Steven Leland - USA - Canoeing - Competitor
Comments - Your presentation regarding gluteal health far exceeded that of my physical therapist. Thank you for being a true educator.
Mr M Spain - United Kingdom - Athletics Coach & Competitor
Comments - An excellent site full of great tips. It's a bit sparse for Northern Ireland and maybe a few videos, but I am just scratching the surface of this site, and it is superb for me.
Mr Simpson - United Kingdom - Athletics Coach
Comments - Long-time not been in touch, but I still love your website. I am starting a five-week course for beginner coaches next week. Coaches who have been given a wee bit of paper and let loose on the young athletic population with no back up so no change there. I am going as I always do recommend your site. I, along with a few other coaches, notably Bill Walker, don't exist as we are led into a Brave New World of technology and academia. I hope you are keeping well, and keep up the excellent work. U.K.A. Level 4 Performance Coach.

Mr D. Boopathy - India - Gymnastics Coach

I presently work as a physical director in an arts and science college in India, Tamilnadu. We are running a physical education department at my college under my guidance. I have given your website id to my physical education students to learn many training methods. Thank you so much for your effort.
Mr Filipe Teixeira - Portugal - Soccer Official
Comments -This site is one of the best I have seen in the area. I recently started to work in a soccer club as a sports psychologist, and I was always trying to find tests and articles to justify my interventions. This website will help me collect some ideas and evaluations. Congratulations on your work.
Mr Edmund Yaw Awuku - Athletics Coach

Mr Bijan - Iran - Athletics Coach
