Loss of Skeletal Muscle HIF-1α Results in Altered Exercise Endurance
The physiological flux of oxygen is extreme in exercising skeletal muscle. Hypoxia is thus a critical parameter in muscle function, influen…
Regulation of Muscle Fiber Type and Running Endurance by PPARδ
Endurance exercise training can promote an adaptive muscle fiber transformation and an increase of mitochondrial biogenesis by triggering s…
Physiological factors that regulate the use of endogenous fat and carbohydrate fuels during endurance exercise
Exercise causes a dramatic increase in energy requirements because of the metabolic needs of working muscles. Exercise-dependent factors re…
Oxygen uptake during Wingate tests for arms and legs in swimmers and water polo players
Study compares maximal oxygen uptake in Wingate tests for arms and legs in swimmers and water polo players.
Discrepancy between cardiorespiratory system and skeletal muscle in elite cyclists after hypoxic training
Background The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of hypoxic training on the cardiorespiratory system and skeletal muscle a…
Kinematic determinants of early acceleration in field sport athletes
Acceleration performance is important for field sport athletes that require a high level of repeat sprint ability. Although acceleration is…
Delayed leukocytosis after hard strength and endurance exercise: Aspects of regulatory mechanisms
Study investigates the mobilization of neutrophils after strenuous exercise in athletes.
ACTN3 Genotype Is Associated with Human Elite Athletic Performance
Differences in ACTN3 (alpha-actinin 3) genotypes have been reported among endurance and power athletes. Elite athletic performance in endur…
Effects of aerobic training on heart rate
is an important factor to re- duce the indexes of cardiovascular and all causes morbi- mortality. However, there is, apparently, additional…
Lactate and Ventilatory Thresholds Reflect the Training Status of Professional Soccer Players Where Maximum Aerobic Power Is Unchanged
The aim of this study was to investigate maximum aerobic power (VO2 max) and anaerobic threshold (AT) as determinants of training status am…
ACTN3 Genotype Is Associated with Human Elite Athletic Performance
The research explores genetic influences on athletic performance related to the ACTN3 gene.
ACTN3 Genotype Is Associated with Human Elite Athletic Performance
Striding bipedalism is a key derived behaviour of hominids that possibly originated soon after the divergence of the chimpanzee and human l…
THE EFFECTS OF HILL CLIMBINGS ON THE AEROBIC CAPACITY
This study investigates the impact of hill climbing on aerobic capacity in trained athletes.
Red wine polyphenols increase calcium in bovine aortic endothelial cells: a basis to elucidate signalling pathways leading to nitric oxide production
Purpose Blackcurrant intake increases peripheral blood flow in humans, potentially by anthocyanin-induced vasodilation which may affect sub…
Interval Training for Performance: A Scientific and Empirical Practice
This article traces the history of scientific and empirical interval training. Scientific research has shed some light on the choice of int…
Does the "New Economy" Measure Up to the Great Inventions of the Past?
During the four years 1995-99 U.S. productivity growth experienced a strong revival and achieved growth rates exceeding that of the "golden…
Limiting factors for maximum oxygen uptake and determinants of endurance performance
This article discusses factors affecting oxygen uptake and endurance performance.
Comparação das intensidades correspondentes ao lactato mínimo, limiar de lactato e limiar anaeróbio durante o ciclismo em atletas de endurance
This study compares exercise intensity at lactate minimum, lactate threshold, and anaerobic threshold in endurance athletes.
Development of Ergometer Attachment for Power and Maximum Anaerobic Power Measurement in Swimming
The ergometer can be a versatile means of measurement if attachments are developed for special purposes or if attachment is developed for m…
