Isometric training at longer muscle–tendon complex lengths: A potential countermeasure to impaired neuro‐muscle–tendon function during space travel

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Manned space exploration to distant destinations, including Mars, continues to be an aspiration of humankind. Space travel does, however, present many challenges to the body, amongst which adaptation to microgravity is perhaps the largest. For instance, both short and long manned spaceflight missions have shown substantial deleterious effects ...

Microgravity‐induced changes in skeletal muscle and possible countermeasures: What we can learn from bed rest and human space studies

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite exercise countermeasures to sustain health and performance in spaceflight, complete maintenance of muscle mass and functions in microgravity is still not possible for most astronauts. The principal cause of the limited effectiveness of existing exercise countermeasures is the difficulty in achieving full loading forces in space.

Redox‐regulated signalling of adaptations to contractile activity in skeletal muscle: Implications for age‐related muscle weakness

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Skeletal muscle adaptation to contractile activity is modulated by redox signalling, primarily through reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Early research framed ROS as deleterious byproducts of exercise, but subsequent studies have established their roles as signalling molecules involved in mitochondrial biogenesis,

Passive thigh heating improves peak force production in younger adults and early isokinetic force production in younger and older adults

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Older adults often suffer from reduced physical capability relative to young adults, in part due to impaired muscle function. This study investigated the ergogenic effects of passive thigh heating on knee extensor torque production in healthy older versus younger adults.
