Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between long‐term endurance running training and daily variation in testosterone, which is known to diminish during ageing, in a comparative, cross‐sectional study. We recruited 45 male participants into four groups [young athletes (YA), young sedentary (YS), master athletes (MA) and elderly

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Ageing leads to an increased prevalence of sarcopenia and frailty, characterised by progressive declines in muscle strength, power and function and reduced physical activity. Hot water immersion (HWI) could potentially improve muscle function, but this is yet to be explored in older adults.

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Prolonged bed rest and immobilization have deleterious effects on skeletal muscle mass and function, especially in older adults. These can lead to reduced physical capacity and quality of life. Previous experiments in younger individuals show that exercise can mitigate these effects, but evidence remains scarce and inconclusive in older adults.

Stroke neurovascular responses to exercise: A novel rehabilitation paradigm
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Stroke is a leading cause of long‐term disability, impacting the cerebrovascular, peripheral vascular and neuromotor systems. Characterising vascular responses to exercise post‐stroke offers valuable insights into the impairments that might influence outcomes during neurorehabilitation.

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract The objective of this study was to investigate thermophysiological and perceptual responses to exercise heat stress in people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF) on Elexacaftor/Tezacaftor/Ivacaftor (ETI) versus healthy controls, and to explore their lived experiences of heat stress.

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract We compared the acute and chronic effects of postexercise cold water immersion (CWI) and active recovery (ACT) on oxidative stress, redox‐related gene expression, mitochondrial adaptations and muscle oxidative capacity. In a crossover study, nine males completed strength sessions, followed by either 10 min CWI or ACT.

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract The physiological adaptations of long‐term high‐altitude residents without high‐altitude genetic ancestry remain poorly characterized. This study investigated whether permanent residence at low altitude (1200 m) influences performance at higher altitude (2500 m). We compared exercise responses at 2500 m in endurance‐trained athletes living for

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Muscle cramps are painful, involuntary contractions thought to arise from altered spinal motoneuron excitability, potentially involving persistent inward currents (PICs). We examined whether cramp susceptibility is associated with altered PIC‐related motoneuron behaviour and whether electrically induced cramp modifies these estimates.

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract The association between higher levels of physical activity and lower cancer risk and mortality is well established. However, a causal link is yet to be proven. Recent studies showed a decrease in the proliferation rates of cultured human cancer cells when the human serum used to stimulate them was conditioned by acute exercise. Here, we tested
