In this episode of The Sports Engineering Podcast, we dive into the science of performance with Dr. Assaf Yogev, exercise physiologist, coach, and research scientist at Arc’teryx. From cycling and muscle oxygenation to the future of wearables, we discuss how near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) provides real-time insight into muscle oxygenation and athletic performance. We also explore the balance between lab research and real-world application, how human-centric design drives innovation in outdoor gear, and why the best engineering starts from the inside out.
