Graduated in Physical Education (1989) and specialization in Human Development and Motricity (1991) from São Paulo State University Julio de Mesquita Filho (UNESP - Rio Claro - SP). Completed his Master in Biological Sciences - Physiology (1993) and Ph.D. in Biological Sciences - Physiology (1997), both held at the State University of Campinas (UNICAMP). Associate Professor in Theoretical and Practical Basis of Physical Fitness in 2004 (UNESP). Currently, he is Full Professor in Health and Sport at the State University of Campinas (FEF-UNICAMP). He has experience in Physiology, with emphasis on Physiology of Effort and Athletic Training, acting on the following topics: exercise physiology and physical training in humans and animal models, sports, lactate, spirometry, critical power, physiological assessment (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

Recent attention has been given to the role of spontaneous physical activity (SPA), which represents all non-voluntary physical activities of daily life, such as posture maintenance, ambulation, and muscle restlessness. Considering the strong influence of SPA on metabolism, it is possible that animals with higher SPA have an efficient energetic and acid-base control in hypothalamic and sk…
The scientific challenge is about unravelling the secret of Brazilian and Dutch soccer by capturing successful elements of game play of both countries by combining expertise from data science, computer science and sport science. Suggested features from the literature, as well as several novel ones, will be considered and filtered on how they capture success in soccer. A manageable set of …
The 3-min all-out test was developed and validatedon a cycle ergometer using a modification of a linear mathematical equation (1/time vs. power) obtained from the original critical power model. The purpose of this development was to obtain, in a single test, the aerobic and anaerobic capacity parameters and identify the exercise transition moment from heavy to severe intensity. The aim of…

In 1997, Levine and Stray-Gundersen developed the "live high, train low" (LH-TL) model. In this model, athletes were able to obtain gains in physical performance if they lived at altitude (hypoxia) and trained at low altitude (normoxia). Although such a model appears to be effective in the sports context, it is still necessary to unravel physiological processes with regard to aerobic and …
In 1997, Levine and Stray-Gundersen conceived the idea that athletes living at altitude (hypoxia) and training at low altitude (normoxia) could improve the physical fitness. This model known as "Living High and Training Low" (LH-TL), became very appreciated in the exercise physiology. Although such model seems effective for athletes, it is still necessary to understand the adaptive physio…
This project aims to identify and quantify the proteins and metabolites in the blood plasma of soccer players, through proteomic and metabolomic (Untargeted) techniques, and their relationship with the aerobic and anaerobic capacities obtained by the Critical Velocity protocol in field. For this, soccer players will be submitted to five evaluation sessions in field conditions. In the firs…
Aerobic and anaerobic metabolism as well as muscular power are important parameters on basketball performance, since the dynamic characteristics of the game. The lactate minimum test (LMT) was recently adapted for basketball athletes, using the Anaerobic Sprint (RAST) running test to induce hyperlactatemia at the first phase of the LMT. Plyometric exercises, which facilitate muscle recrui…

By about eight decades it has been suggested that the longevity in rodent is increased when animals are treated with caloric restriction diet (CR), since this seems to play a primary control and maintenance of basal cell states at various levels. In the brain, one of the factors of aging is oxidative stress, generating neurodegenerative processes, especially in mitochondrial level. Among …
