The Effects of Training on Gross Efficiency in Cycling: A Review [PDF]
International Journal of Sports Medicine, 2009 There has been much debate in the recent scientific literature regarding the possible ability to increase gross efficiency in cycling via training. Using cross-sectional study designs, researchers have demonstrated no significant differences in gross efficiency between trained and untrained cyclists.

Inverse Relationship between V˙O2max and Gross Efficiency [PDF]
International Journal of Sports Medicine, 2012 The aim of this study was to identify if an inverse relationship exists between Gross Efficiency (GE) and V˙O2max in trained cyclists. In Experiment 1, 14 trained cyclist's GE and V˙O2max were recorded at 5 different phases of a cycling 'self-coached' season using an incremental laboratory test.

Eccentric Exercise–Induced Muscle Damage Reduces Gross Efficiency [PDF]
Medicine & Science in Sports & ExerciseABSTRACT Introduction The effect of eccentric exercise–induced muscle damage (EIMD) on cycling efficiency is unknown. The aim of the present study was to assess the effect of EIMD on gross and delta efficiency and the cardiopulmonary responses to cycle ergometry.

Gross efficiency and cycling performance: a review. [PDF]
, 2012 Efficiency, the ratio of work generated to the total metabolic energy cost, has been suggested to be a key determinant of endurance cycling performance. The purpose of this brief review is to evaluate the influence of gross efficiency on cycling power output and to consider whether or not gross efficiency can be modified.

The efficient operation of the surgical pathology gross room [PDF]
Biotechnic & Histochemistry, 2008 The gross room is the area where pathology specimens from operating rooms are transferred for pathology review and analysis, serving as the bridge between the treating physician and diagnostic surgical pathologist. Reaching the correct diagnosis for a specimen depends on the proper handling and processing of tissue transferred to this very busy area ...

Metabolic Flexibility and Mechanical Efficiency in Women Over-60
Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 Purpose: Aging deteriorates metabolic flexibility (MF). Moreover, recent studies show that glycolysis is barely increased despite impoverished lipid metabolism, in addition to increased relevance of muscle power in older adults.
