Small muscle mass aerobic exercise in health and disease: Unique insights into muscle vascular and metabolic control and performance

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Studies of small muscle mass exercise (SMME) have revealed that the peripheral O2 transport–utilization cascade is a dynamically regulated system in which perfusive and diffusive components can be selectively amplified, redistributed and mechanically limited depending on contraction pattern, recruitment strategy and intramuscular pressure ...

A comparison of the neuromuscular, cardiopulmonary and muscle oxygenation responses to single‐ and double‐leg cycling in older adults

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Previous work in younger adults has shown that during small muscle mass exercise, the tolerable degree of neuromuscular impairment at task failure is greater than during large muscle mass exercise. However, no study has compared the neuromuscular responses to small and large muscle mass exercise whilst matching exercise modality in older ...

On the adaptive significance of group III/IV muscle afferent feedback for the cardiovascular response during sustained locomotion in humans

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Group III/IV leg muscle afferent feedback has previously been recognized as an important determinant of the cardiovascular response to exercise lasting <5 min. Here we demonstrate that the activity of these neurons is crucial in regulating central and peripheral haemodynamic responses during steady state exercise of longer ...

Low‐threshold cutaneous mechanoreceptors on the foot sole have enhanced sensitivity when skin temperature is elevated

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic illustration of microneurography recordings used to examine the effects of local skin heating on cutaneous mechanoreceptor responses in the human foot (left panel). A microelectrode inserted into a peripheral nerve records single‐unit activity from tactile afferent fibres while controlled mechanical stimuli are applied ...

The role of group III/IV afferent feedback in the ventilatory, pressor and metabolic responses to exercise in normoxia and hypoxia

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Participants completed cycling exercise with (placebo) and without (25 µg intrathecal fentanyl) intact group III/IV muscle afferent feedback in three settings: normoxia, acute hypoxia and chronic hypoxia after 7–9 days of acclimatisation (∼3800 m). Blocking afferent feedback suppressed exercise hyperpnoea across all environments,
