15:00 - 17:00 (GMT) | 16:00 - 18:00 (CET) | 10:00 - 12:00 (EST) 

Ketones: the claims, the evidence, the application

Register for our live webinar on ‘Ketones’ with expert speaker Dr Chiel Poffé. Ketones have been described as the ‘new fuel’ in endurance sport and are widely promoted as a way to boost energy availability, improve efficiency, and sharpen cognition.

In this webinar, Chiel will discuss the underlying physiology of ketones, including differences between exogenous vs endogenous ketones and their links to lactate and carbohydrate metabolism. Chiel will dissect the research on ketones and endurance performance study-by-study exploring why findings conflict and what actually drives outcomes.

He will address practical questions such as: 
• How do dose, timing and formulation change the response?
• Why does training status matter?
• And how should practitioners interpret the evidence to give recommendations?

Dr Chiel Poffé

Chiel Poffé is an Assistant Professor at the Faculty of Rehabilitation Sciences at Hasselt University (Belgium). His research focuses on the mechanisms underlying skeletal muscle adaptations to exercise, training, and rehabilitation, as well as their interaction with nutrition.

He obtained his PhD at the Exercise Physiology Research Group at KU Leuven, where he investigated the impact of ketone ester supplementation on exercise performance and training adaptations. Throughout his postdoc, he further focused on the muscular impact of ketone bodies and performed long-term research stays at the laboratories of Prof. Keith Baar (UC Davis) and prof. Luc van Loon (Maastricht University).

Since 2024, he has established his own laboratory at UHasselt, aiming to bridge muscle biology with applied performance and rehabilitation contexts to better understand the mechanisms driving functional adaptations to exercise and (rehabilitation) training. In parallel, he maintains active scientific collaborations with multiple professional sports teams. This includes the Soudal-Quick-Step WorldTour cycling team, with whom he conducts prospective studies that directly inform elite sport practice.
