Abstract The purpose was to test: (1) whether the decline in maximal motor unit (MU) firing rate is an invariable response when maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) torque is reduced following a submaximal muscle fatiguing task; and (2) whether fatigue‐induced slowing of contractile speed and firing rate decline are co‐dependent. Ten participants (three

Kinesiology Education – a Challenge for Modern Theory and Practice in Education
Life and work in a modern society carries a “specific weight” when referring to children, pupils and youth. That is, among other, the reason why various influences from the surroundings to which the youngest and youth are exposed to are reflected restrictively not only on their growth and development but their overall wellbeing.

Abstract Chronic low‐grade inflammation characterizes type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and underlies the development of peripheral neuropathy, symptoms of which include mechanical allodynia and an exaggerated exercise pressor reflex. The purpose of this study was to determine whether mechanical allodynia and/or specific concentrations of inflammatory ...

Abstract We tested the hypothesis that two different durations of lower leg transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) increase post‐TENS popliteal artery blood flow (PABF), popliteal vascular conductance (PVC), and 6‐min walk distance (6MWD) in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD).

Macro‐ and microcirculatory factors affecting foot temperature change during walking
Abstract Change in skin temperature is a complex process affected by several factors. During walking, increased microcirculatory activity, such as muscle metabolism, could increase foot temperature. The ensuing macrocirculatory responses, such as increased leg blood flow (LBF), might also increase foot temperature.

Abstract Bed rest accelerates bone loss and may exacerbate skeletal fragility. This study examined the effects of 14 days of head‐down tilt bed rest (HDBR) with or without exercise, and subsequent recovery, on bone turnover, density and structure in older adults. Twenty‐two healthy older adults (55–65 years) completed the HDBR protocol.

Abstract Ramadan is a sacred religious practice observed by Muslims that involves abstaining from food and water from sunrise to sunset for 1 month. Prior work has reported that peak oxygen uptake (V̇O2peak${{\dot{V}}_{{{{\mathrm{O}}}_2}{\mathrm{peak}}}}$) can decline during Ramadan in parallel with reduced physical activity.

Abstract Interindividual variability in the cardiac output (Q̇$\dot{Q}$) to the rate of oxygen consumption (V̇O2${{\dot{V}}_{{{{\mathrm{O}}}_2}}}$) slope (Q̇$\dot{Q}$–V̇O2${{\dot{V}}_{{{{\mathrm{O}}}_2}}}$) in healthy males is related to stroke volume (SV); however, the impact of differences in left ventricular (LV) structure and function as well as ...

Abstract Menopause increases coronary heart disease risk, in part through reduced oestrogen‐mediated nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability. The Buckberg ratio, an index of myocardial oxygen supply–demand balance, in which higher values reflect more favourable myocardial perfusion, is lower in postmenopausal females (PMFs) than in age‐matched males.
