Alessandro L. Colosio
I am a Junior Professor at the Jean Monnet University of Saint-Etienne (France), with an interest in oxygen consumption kinetics (i.e. slow component), exercise monitoring & prescription, and the underpinnings of exercise (in)tolerance both in healthy and pathological populations. I also work as S&C coach with Belgian Olympic athletes and am interested in resistance training in the field and lab.
