2 Current Biology 25, , February 16, 2015 ª2015 Elsevier Ltd All rights reserved The Impact of Circadian Phenotype and Time since Awakening on Diurnal Performance in Athletes Report Elise Facer-Childs 1 and Roland Brandstaetter 1, * 1 School of Biosciences, University of Birmingham, Birmingham B15 2TT, UK Summary Circadian rhythms, among other factors, have been shown to regulate key physiological processes involved in athletic performance [1 7]. Personal best performance of athletes in the evening was confirmed across different sports [8 12]. Contrary to this view, we identified peak performance times in athletes to be different between human larks and owls (also called morningness/eveningness types [13] or chronotypes [14] and referred to as circadian phenotypes in this paper), i.e., individuals with well-documented genetic [15 20] and physiological [21 24] differences that result in disparities between their biological clocks and how they entrain to exogenous cues, such as the environmental light/dark cycle and social factors. We found time since entrained awakening to be the major predictor of peak performance times, rather than time of day, as well as significant individual performance variations as large as 26% in the course of a day. Our novel approach combining the use of an athlete-specific chronometric test, longitudinal circadian analysis, and physical performance tests to characterize relevant sleep/wake and performance parameters in athletes allows a comprehensive analysis of the link between the circadian system and diurnal performance variation. We establish that the evaluation of an athlete s personal best performance requires consideration of circadian phenotype, performance evaluation at different times of day, and analysis of performance as a function of time since entrained awakening. Results We recruited 121 competition level athletes (70 females and 51 males; average age 22.5 years) to complete the RB-UB chronometric test, a novel chronometric questionnaire specifically designed to study sleep/wake-related parameters and training, competition, and performance variables in athletes. After comprehensive analysis and scoring of selected parameters, all individuals were categorized as either early circadian phenotype (ECT), intermediate circadian phenotype (ICT), or late circadian phenotype (LCT); 28% of the individuals were ECTs (n = 34), 48% were ICTs (n = 58), and 24% were LCTs (n = 29). This circadian phenotyping methodology proved consistent with relevant circadian parameters, such as wakeup times, sleep-onset times, and sleep durations, validating behavioral circadian differences between the individual phenotypes; wake-up times, both on weekdays and weekends, were significantly different between the circadian phenotypes (Kruskal-Wallis, p < ). Significant differences were also *Correspondence: r.brandstaetter@bham.ac.uk seen in sleep-onset times (Kruskal-Wallis, p < ) and sleep durations (Kruskal-Wallis, p < ) (Figures 1 and S1). From these 121 athletes, 20 with comparable age and fitness levels and with circadian phenotypes matching the whole population i.e., 25% versus 28% ECTs (n = 5), 50% versus 48% ICTs (n = 10), and 25% versus 24% LCTs (n = 5) were selected to conduct BLEEP fitness tests at six different times of day. All 20 were field hockey players with an average age of 20.4 years competing at regional club level, with seven out of these 20 individuals additionally competing at international level. The BLEEP test is a progressive aerobic cardiovascular endurance test widely used by sports coaches to estimate athletes maximum oxygen uptake, i.e., cardiovascular fitness, one of the most important components of physical fitness [25, 26]. Analysis of personal best BLEEP test performance of all 20 subjects revealed average lowest performance at 07:00 a.m., intermediate performance values at 10:00 a.m., 1:00 p.m., and 10:00 p.m., and highest performance values at 4:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m., with a considerable performance difference of 11.2% between the minimum and maximum average performance (Figure 2A). Analysis considering circadian phenotype, however, revealed significant differences in peak performance, with the highest performance for ECTs at hr, ICTs at hr, and LCTs at hr (Figures 2B 2D). Diurnal changes in performance were 7.62% % in ECTs as compared to 10.03% % in ICTs and a striking 26.2% % in LCTs (Figure 2). Analysis of the data as a function of time since entrained awakening, i.e., performance evaluated against time in hours after entrained wake-up time, diminished the time difference between peak performance times in ECTs and ICTs, with the highest average performance for ECTs at hr and ICTs at hr, i.e., being only 0.96 hr apart and not significantly different any longer (Kruskal-Wallis, p > 0.05; Figures 3B, 3C, and 4). Average LCT peak performance time, however, was hr after entrained wake-up and was significantly delayed as compared to ECT and ICT peak performance times (Kruskal-Wallis, p < 0.01; Figures 3D and 4). Thus, our study of cardiovascular endurance, a major component of physical fitness, establishes that circadian phenotype and time since entrained awakening, i.e., the entrainment status of the circadian system reflecting internal biological time, are major determinants of diurnal athletic performance. Discussion Our results shed new light on our understanding of personal best performance in athletes by showing (1) significant differences in peak performance times between circadian phenotypes, (2) time since entrained awakening to be the major and most reliable predictor of peak performance, and (3) significant individual performance variations up to 26% in the course of a day. It is recognized that different sports require different skills, such as cognitive abilities, muscle strength, accuracy, or combinations of these [27]. Further factors affecting sports performance are diet [28, 29], motivation and competition [30], and

Our study shows that circadian phenotype, i.e., the entrainment status of the circadian system, is also a major determinant of athletic performance. Previous performance studies failed to distinguish between these different types [8 10, 12] or classified all participants, sometimes with the exception of only one or two individuals, as intermediate types [4, 11]. Our study, on the other hand, included performance tests of ECTs, ICTs, and LCTs of the same gender, comparable age, and comparable fitness levels, and we report significant differences in peak performance times between the circadian phenotypes, with ECTs performing their personal best around mid-day, ICTs performing best mid-afternoon, and LCTs showing peak performance in the evening. Strikingly, performance variation in the course of the day differed considerably between circadian phenotypes. While ECTs and ICTs showed comparable performance Figure 2.

See also Figure S2 and Table S1. differences in the range of 7% to 10%, LCT performance varied substantially, by 26% on average. These enormous performance differences may have a big impact on talent finding, performance evaluation, and success in competition, and may explain why previous studies had identified international elite athletes mostly to be early types [32, 33]. In the sports world, a competitive advantage can be as little as 1%; at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, for example, a 1% increase in the 9.93 s time gained by fourth place in the men s 100 m sprint would have resulted in the silver medal. Similarly, for the women s road race, 400 m swim, and 400 m sprint, a 1% improvement would have won a gold medal for the fourthplace competitor. A major impact of our study comes from the analysis of performance as a function of time since entrained awakening. While time of day analysis revealed that ECTs, ICTs, and LCTs performed best at different times of day, these results changed significantly as a function of time since entrained awakening. Time of day is an exogenous factor and is only partly related to the circadian physiology of an individual, and our data show that measurements of diurnal performance as a function of time of day have only limited value. Irrespective of the time of day, ECTs wake up earlier and go to sleep earlier than LCTs; thus, their individual periods of wakefulness, i.e., their biological days, differ significantly from each other. Our 10:00 a.m. performance test, for example, took place about

See also Figure S2 and Table S1. 3 hr after the average wake-up time of the ECT participants and 2 hr after the entrained wake-up time of our ICT participants, but only 15 min after the entrained average wake-up time of the LCTs. Evaluating our data as a function of time since awakening revealed outstanding results; ECT and ICT performance curves were nearly identical, demonstrating that the time difference of peak performance between ECTs and ICTs was more or less entirely caused by the distinct phasing of their sleep/wake cycles. The diurnal performance curve of LCTs, however, showed a distinct shape and slope as compared to ECTs and ICTs, suggesting differences in the underlying physiology controlling performance. Possible explanations for this discrepancy come from endocrine studies showing that ECTs have higher cortisol levels in the morning and a distinct highamplitude diurnal profile of cortisol, while LCTs have lowered cortisol in the morning and a flattened diurnal profile that cannot be explained by different wake-up times and sleep durations and thus suggest that intrinsic physiological features are responsible for these differences [34 37]. Cortisol production is controlled by circadian mechanisms [38, 39], and LCTs have been shown to have significantly delayed melatonin rhythms as compared to ECTs [24]. This suggests that the phase-shifted, i.e., delayed, circadian rhythm in LCTs may cause a partial suppression and delay of cortisol, which in turn negatively affects physical performance, as cortisol is essential for muscle function [40, 41]. We can exclude impact of age as well as external influences on the results of this study as all participants were of comparable age, completed daily sleep/wake diaries (Figure S1), and comprehensive pre- and post-test forms with each performance test, monitoring a large number of variables, including sleep/wake times and food and caffeine intake. Additionally, to exclude any impact due to changes in sleep duration the night before the actual performance test, we re-analyzed all data by omitting all performance tests that took place earlier than entrained wake-up, i.e., that required a change in wake-up time and thus shortened sleep; this analysis confirmed the differences in peak performance times between the circadian phenotypes (Table S1). For ECTs and ICTs, peak performance times were similar about 5.5 hr and 6 hr after entrained wake-up, respectively, while LCTs reached their peak performance about 11 hr after their biological start of the day (Figure 3). Thus, the differences in peak performance times are the consequence of both internal physiological mechanisms and differential entrainment of the circadian system to environmental cues. To further validate these striking results and ensure that these results were not specific to one particular performance test and/or the particular group of athletes selected, we conducted additional performance tests with an independently selected group of squash players showing highly comparable performance results (Figure S3). Our results are the first known performance data in athletes that have observed different peak performance between circadian phenotypes in both real time and time since awakening. Desynchronization of internal body clocks can result from sleep disruptions, jet lag, shift work, and various other circadian disorders [42], including the mismatch of internal biological time and exogenous environmental time, a phenomenon that a high proportion of individuals in the current population, particularly LCTs, experience on a daily basis; all of these circadian disruptions are known to have detrimental effects on performance, health, and well-being [43 47]. With our increasing knowledge of the impact of circadian disruptions and novel tools to study circadian phenotypes, such as the ones introduced in this study, effective interventions can be designed to minimize circadian disruption, stabilize circadian rhythmicity, and enhance well-being and performance [48, 49]. Studies like this will provide athletes and coaches in the sports world with new insights that will allow them to improve
5 521 performance, as well as also create awareness in the corporate world to adapt schedules to achieve maximum performance of the workforce and increase safety [50, 51]. Our results leave no doubt that the correct determination of an athlete s personal best performance requires consideration of circadian phenotype, performance evaluation at different times of day, and analysis of performance as a function of time since entrained awakening. For an athlete to optimize performance, entrained wake-up time appears to be the most important and reliable predictor of optimal performance. It does not necessarily matter at what time of day personal best performance has to be achieved; what matters for an athlete is how many hours after entrained wake-up the competition or performance evaluation takes place. We herewith introduce novel tools for performance evaluation and enhancement, including a chronometric test specifically designed for athletes and longitudinal sleep/wake diaries that allow a detailed analysis of circadian disruptions, contributing factors, and internal biological time.

Grey area indicates average activity period of ECT. These activity records and the adjacent table show the difference in phasing of the activity periods between the circadian phenotypes and the increasing variability of wake up times and sleep onset times from ECT to LCT. Statistical analysis revealed wake up times and sleep onset times to be significantly different between all three circadian phenotypes (Kruskal-Wallis, p<0.001). Bartlett s test for equal variances revealed significant differences between variances (p<0.0001) of wake up times between participants demonstrating the significantly increased variability, i.e. instability, of sleep/wake rhythmicity in LCTs as compared to ECTs. Each subject taking part in the performance tests completed daily sleep/wake dairies for a minimum of 3 weeks, covering the whole period of performance testing.

Peak performance times remained comparable, i.e. were not significantly altered, while significant differences between circadian phenotypes, as reported in Figure 3, were retained with ECTs and ICTs not showing significant differences but both, ECTs and ICTs, being significantly different from LCTs (**=p<0.01).
11 Supplemental Experimental Procedures Chronometric testing and circadian phenotyping The RBUB chronometric test collects information on wake up times, sleep onset times, sleep onset delays, sleep duration, alarm use, light exposure, food intake, exogenous schedules (work, training, competition, school and/or university timetables), sleep quality, daytime naps, periods of mental and physical high and low activity, energy drink consumption, alcohol consumption, caffeine consumption, and smoking. Completion of the chronometric test took athletes 10 minutes on average. For each individual, scores were allocated to wake up times and sleep onset times during weekdays, weekends, and free days, the time lag between weekday and weekend wake up times, self-reported times of high (mentally and physically active) and low (tiredness, fatigue) activity periods and meal times. Masking factors such as working hours, University timetables, and training schedules were considered when allocating scores. Scores represented time in hours and were used to categorize into early (ECT), intermediate (ICT), and late (LCT) circadian phenotypes. All data were collected according to the Human Ethics regulations of the University of Birmingham and treated anonymously according to the UK Data Protection Act The chronometric test is the property of the corresponding author, Dr Roland Brandstaetter, University of Birmingham; it is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws and can be used on the condition that it is not copied, reprinted or disclosed to a third party either in whole or in part without the prior written consent of the University of Birmingham. For further information or to request utilization of the questionnaire, contact the corresponding author at r.brandstaetter@bham.ac.uk. Physical performance tests BLEEP tests were carried out with 20 athletes, all of which were hockey players of comparable fitness and competition levels ranging from regional club level to international level. The sample consisted of 5 ECTs, 10 ICTs, and 5 LCTs to mirror the circadian phenotype distribution of the whole population studied. All subjects completed at least five out of six tests, scheduled at six different times of day spread out over a period of three weeks (0700, 1000, 1300, 1600, 1900, and 2200 hr). We used a multi stage fitness test called the UK standard Bleep Test; the initial running velocity was 8.0 km/hr, which increased to 9.0 km/hr at the next stage and by 0.5 km/hr thereafter. The participants completed continuous 20m shuttle runs until exhaustion and the levels achieved were recorded. The level attained provides an estimation of maximal oxygen uptake. All performance results are expressed as percentage of individual maximum performance. The test facility was an indoor gym providing consistent lighting and temperature conditions throughout all performance tests. 20m lines were measured accurately and the same lines used for each of the tests. Warm up routines were kept consistent for each test and pre/post-test forms were completed by all participants for each test to account for external factors that
12 might have influenced performance and for recording the athletes self-assessment of their physical conditions and perception of the tests. Further 22 athletes (average age 19.6 years) from the University of Birmingham squash team participated in additional performance tests. Of these 22 participants, 16 were early and intermediate circadian phenotypes and 6 were late circadian phenotypes. 2 of the 22 participants were of international standard, 5 of national standard, 8 of regional/county standard and 7 of club standard. Performance tests were carried out at 0700, 1100, 1500, 1900, and 2300 hr on consecutive s over a period of 5 weeks, with the order of times of day selected randomly. The performance tests consisted of two components; an accuracy/efficiency test requiring squash-specific skills, and a timed fitness component, i.e. repeated squash court sprints. The accuracy/efficiency component required participants to hit as many shots as possible into a 6-inch target area adjacent to the side wall of the squash court within 2 minutes and performance was evaluated as total hits into the target zone as percent of personal best. The fitness component involved four consecutive sets of court sprints. The time difference between the first and the last sets of court sprints was calculated and performance plotted as court sprint time in percent of fastest court sprint time. All participants completed specifically designed sleep/wake diaries and pre/post test forms. Sleep/wake diaries were used to allow a longitudinal detailed analysis of circadian parameters on an individual and daily basis. Measures included alarm clock use, wake up times, sleep onset times, sleep onset latency, sleep duration, sleep quality, meal times, snack times, caffeine intake, training/competition times, self-reported high activity, self-reported tiredness and fatigue, and daytime naps. Pre/post test forms recorded parameters such as wake up times over the last two days before the performance test, sleep onsets of the last two nights before the test, sleep duration, food intake, caffeine intake and exercise schedules over the last 24 hours before the actual performance test, time of last meal and details of carbohydrate intake. For the calculation of time since entrained awakening, wake-up times of at least three consecutive days ahead of each performance test were taken from the sleep/wake diaries and the pre/post-test forms of all individuals and the average wake-up time considered as entrained wake-up time. All performance test results were then calculated as a function of time since entrained awakening, i.e. number of hours deviating from entrained wake-up time. Parametric and non-parametric curve fits were initially applied to the performance data and 2 nd order polynomial non-linear regression chosen for further analysis according to tests of goodness of fit, normality of residuals, and replicates test of lack of fit with GraphPad Prism software. Individual peak performance values were derived from the XY coordinates of the 2 nd order non-linear regression curves.
