    Episode 20 - Dr James Hull
    Feb 11 2021
    This episode is all about breathing – something we know is important, but normally don’t think about. Dr James is a Respiratory Physician & lung doctor at the Royal Brompton Hospital in London and also a specialist sports respiratory clinician at the Institute of Sport, Exercise and Health , at University College London.

    James is a Doctor Doctor! A medical doctor who went back to University for a PhD in vascular aspects of exercise physiology. His main job now is evaluating ‘unexplained’ exertional breathlessness but also trying to work out why athletes get coughs and wheeze during sport. He promotes awareness of a condition called exercise induced laryngeal obstruction (EILO) which is very common (5% of all adolescence / young athletes) and yet completely misdiagnosed as asthma.

    In elite sport James is a specialist advisor to the English Institute of Sport – working to optimise the respiratory health of Team GB athletes; trying and reduce risk of infections and asthma problems as well as on a panel of experts advising the International Olympic Committee on respiratory health in athletes and COVID.

    Episode 18 - Baz Moffat
    Jan 28 2021
    Baz is the Co-Founder of The Well-HQ, alongside Bella Smith and Dr Emma Ross who we heard from in Episode 3 of the Endurance podcast. This is a really important conversation about female health, but not one to listen to with younger children, unless they are comfortable with adult language.

    Baz is an inspiring women’s health and fitness coach, specialising in the areas of pelvic floor, and women’s wellness. Her holistic approach focuses on helping women throughout their lives with one common goal – to help women move freely and live life to the full.

    With over 20 years’ experience in the health and fitness sector and as a former elite GB rower and medallist, Baz is able to utilise this knowledge and combine it with her own experience as a 40-year-old mother of two, to bring a deep understanding and a unique and informed approach to her work within women’s health.

    Her drive, enthusiasm and compassion has quickly earned Baz the reputation as the ‘go-to-trainer’ for any woman wanting to get her body and fitness back on track.

Having completed her PhD in human movement biomechanics and physical activity performance and participation, Charlotte moved to the French alps and took a post doctoral position at Geneva University Hospital in 2009, where she worked between the sleep laboratory and the laboratory of kinesiology.

    Charlotte runs sleep clinics, where she advises, assesses, and aids in the diagnoses of individuals with a wide range of sleep problems and disorders. In addition to this, she works in an educational capacity delivering lectures and seminars that raise awareness surrounding the importance of sleep. She is particularly interested in the cognitive and health related impairment we suffer directly resulting from disturbed sleep and the effect this has on performance.
