The modified Borg cycle strength test (mBCST): Feasibility and physiological response in people with COPD and healthy older adults

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Accurate prescription of supramaximal exercise requires exercise tests covering the intensity domain between maximal aerobic and peak power output. All‐out tests are commonly used for this objective but are considered challenging for people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) due to the extreme physiological demand.

Jumping on the moon as a potential exercise countermeasure

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Moon's gravitational field strength (17% Earth's gravity) may facilitate the use of bodyweight jumping as an exercise countermeasure against musculoskeletal and cardiovascular deconditioning in reduced gravity settings. The present study characterised the acute physiological and kinetic responses to bodyweight jumping in simulated Lunar ...

Increases in skin perfusion and blood oxygen in the non‐exercising human limbs during exercise in the heat: Implications for control of circulation

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Blood flow in the inactive limb tissues and skin is widely thought to decline during incremental exercise to exhaustion due to augmented sympathoadrenal vasoconstrictor activity, but direct evidence to support this view is lacking. Here, we investigated the inactive‐forearm haemodynamic (Q̇forearm${\dot{Q}}_{\mathrm{forearm}}$) and oxygenation

Harmonic and power spectrum analysis of vertical ground reaction force in patients who have a stroke within 3 months

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Stroke remains a primary cause of disability globally. An in‐depth comprehension of gait impairments following a stroke is vital for crafting effective therapeutic interventions, and vertical ground reaction forces (vGRF) provide valuable insights into these mechanics.

Effect of hypoxia on muscle activation at equivalent absolute and relative intensity during incremental and constant load exercise to task failure

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract We examined the impact of moderate hypoxia (HYPO) on muscle activation during incremental exercise matched for both absolute and equivalent relative intensity. Fifteen active subjects (10 males, 5 females) completed two ramp incremental test and two step tests in normoxia (NORM; FiO2${F_{{\mathrm{i}}{{\mathrm{O}}_2}}}$ = 0.209) and HYPO (FiO2${
