Resistance exercise breaks during prolonged sitting augment the blood flow response to a subsequent oral glucose load in sedentary adults

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sitting‐induced impairments in postprandial blood flow are an important link between sedentary behaviour and cardiometabolic disease risk. The objective of this work was to examine the effects of resistance exercise breaks (REB) performed every 30 min during an otherwise sedentary 3‐h period on the vasodilatory response to a subsequent oral ...

The contribution of age and sex hormones to female neuromuscular function across the adult lifespan

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend This study mapped the age‐related trajectory of neuromuscular deterioration in 88 healthy females aged 18–80 years old. An accelerated reduction in neuromuscular function, primarily of peripheral muscular origin, coincided with the age of menopause onset.
