Acute physiological responses of blood flow restriction between high‐intensity interval repetitions in trained cyclists

European Journal of Sport Science, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 777-787, June 2024.
Abstract Blood flow restriction (BFR) is increasingly being used to enhance aerobic performance in endurance athletes. This study examined physiological responses to BFR applied in recovery phases within a high‐intensity interval training (HIIT) session in trained cyclists. Eleven competitive road cyclists (mean ± SD, age: 28 ± 7 years, body mass: 69 ±

Flywheel Resistance Training for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Rehabilitation

International Journal of Strength and Conditioning
The tearing or rupturing of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) has become an increasingly common injury in athletes, particularly in sports that require sharp, pivoting movements and sports that have high deceleration and landing demands.

The role of pennation angle and architectural gearing to rate of force development in dynamic and isometric muscle contractions

Scandinavian Journal of Medicine &Science in Sports, Volume 34, Issue 5, May 2024.
Abstract Background Associations between muscle architecture and rate of force development (RFD) have been largely studied during fixed‐end (isometric) contractions. Fixed‐end contractions may, however, limit muscle shape changes and thus alter the relationship between muscle architecture an RFD.

Muscle and Systemic Molecular Responses to a Single Flywheel Based Iso-Inertial Training Session in Resistance-Trained Men

Frontiers in Physiology, 2019
Growing evidence points to the effectiveness of flywheel (FW) based iso-inertial resistance training in improving physical performance capacities. However, molecular adaptations induced by FW exercises are largely unknown.

Physiological and molecular predictors of cycling sprint performance

Scandinavian Journal of Medicine &Science in Sports, Volume 34, Issue 1, January 2024.
Abstract The study aimed to identify novel muscle phenotypic factors that could determine sprint performance using linear regression models including the lean mass of the lower extremities (LLM), myosin heavy chain composition (MHC), and proteins and enzymes implicated in glycolytic and aerobic energy generation (citrate synthase, OXPHOS proteins ...

Effect of Endurance and Strength Training on the Slow Component of O2 Kinetics in Elderly Humans

Frontiers in Physiology, 2018
We compared the effects of 8 weeks of high intensity, aerobic interval training (HIT) and isoinertial resistance training (IRT) on: (i) O2 kinetics during heavy (HiEx) intensity exercise and; (ii) work economy during moderate (ModEx) intensity exercise ...

Characterisation of the Muscle Protein Synthetic Response to Resistance Exercise in Healthy Adults: A Systematic Review and Exploratory Meta‐Analysis

Translational Sports Medicine, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Background and Objective. The rate of skeletal muscle protein synthesis (MPS) is the principal driving force underpinning the muscular adaptive response to resistance exercise (RE). This study aims to consolidate the literature, characterise MPS response to RE, and assess the impact of key covariates. Methods. Five electronic databases (PubMed (Medline)

Effects of eight weeks of aerobic interval training and of isoinertial resistance training on risk factors of cardiometabolic diseases and exercise capacity in healthy elderly subjects

Oncotarget, 2015
We investigated the effect of 8 weeks of high intensity interval training (HIT) and isoinertial resistance training (IRT) on cardiovascular fitness, muscle mass-strength and risk factors of metabolic syndrome in 12 healthy older adults (68 yy ± 4). HIT consisted in 7 two-minute repetitions at 80%-90% of V˙O2max, 3 times/w.
