Block vs. undulating periodisation: how does this impact performance?
The effects of a block periodised model (BLOCK) versus daily undulating periodisation (DUP) on both anthropometric and physical qualities.

Skinfold Calipers
Delve into the science, validity, reliability and practical recommendations for using skinfold calipers to measure body fat.
Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA)
Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) can estimate body composition (e.g. fat mass and fat-free mass) via a small electrical current.
DEXA Scans
Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) scans can be a valuable assessment tool for measuring body composition (e.g. levels of body fat).
Body Composition Testing
Changes in body composition can be determinants of successful performance, and there are several methods of body composition testing.
