Dr Will O'Connor
I used my background in biochemistry to complete a PhD in Sport & Exercise Science at Massey University, where I investigated metabolic flexibility and ketogenic diets in ultra-endurance performance.
I actively compete at the elite level in ultra running events and I have been using a power meter since day one. I’ve coached a plethora of athletes from running to triathlon around the world.
